Line of Contact Update: Infantry in War Thunder!

Introducing the Line of Contact major update and a new War Thunder game mode, featuring infantry!

War Thunder is launching closed beta testing for a new, standalone game mode, which brings player-controlled infantry squads onto the battlefield alongside ground vehicles and helicopters!

In this mode, you’ll experience large-scale battles featuring soldiers in various combat roles with modern weapons, gear and equipment. Tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, drones and attack helicopters provide ground and air support for the team.

If you’re a firearm enthusiast, your time has come! Dive into diverse weapon customization and outfit your squad with a wide array of equipment, including personal body armor, grenades, MANPADS, grenade launchers, and much more! Choose from countless weapon attachments, such as scopes and underbarrel grenade launchers to customize your weapons to your playstyle.

Get ready to experience War Thunder battles from the brand new perspective of an infantry soldier through tactical building clearouts, tense sniper duels, and fierce shootouts on city streets!

We’ll be sharing more details about the Infantry CBT soon in a dev blog, so be sure to keep an eye out for that!

Amazing trailer, that Foxbat reveal was epic. A lot to look forward to!

Personal highlights: MiG-25 and BMPT.

Curious how infantry wil lwork out, it could be interesting. Glad it will be a separate mode though.

Also, with that MiG-25 hype and well done reveal I doubt you can still get away with it (allegedly) being an event vehicle. Maybe you should turn it into an squadron vehicle or tech tree plane instead.
