November 8, 2013 — Gaijin Entertainment announced that their next-gen MMO combat game War Thunder, which recently won Gamescom’s Best Simulation Game award, is celebrating two important milestones. War Thunder’s Open Beta received clearance for lift off exactly one year ago in Russia, and in that time, more than 5,000,000 players have mixed it up in aerial dogfights piloting the most deadly WWII planes in history.
Over the course of one year, Gaijin Entertainment added almost a hundred new planes to War Thunder alongside with new exciting modes and improvements. During that time, War Thunder released on Steam and became the first Russian game for PlayStation 4 and the next generation of consoles.
“To those who have served, and to those who continue to step up to answer the call of duty in War Thunder – we salute you. It is in your honor that we at Gaijin Entertainment are offering every player Golden Battles on November 3rd and 10th as well as a limited edition decal for decorating your planes – do not miss your chance to get it and improve your balance as well”, said Anton Yudintsev, CEO of Gaijin Entertainment.
Over five million players already know the enjoyment of raining down aerial destruction via the PC-version of War Thunder and this fan base continues exponential growth. War Thunder is currently in Open Beta on PC, in development for Mac OS and Oculus Rift and will be a PlayStation4 launch title.
