PSN account on PC: premium vehicles not showing in tech tree

Game Discussion General Discussion

Hi everyone,

I have a question about my War Thunder account.
I originally started playing War Thunder on PlayStation, but around three years ago I moved to PC and I have been playing from there since then.
The problem is that, when I log in on PC and open the tech trees, I don’t see most of the premium vehicles on the right side of the screen. I can only see vehicles that are available for Golden Eagles or things like squadron/research vehicles. As far as I remember, when I was playing on PlayStation, I could see the premium vehicles normally.
I wanted to ask: is this normal for accounts that were originally created on PlayStation and then used on PC? Is it because the account is still linked to PSN?
I already contacted support back in 2024 about transferring my PlayStation account to PC, but I never managed to get a real solution. From what I understood, PlayStation-to-PC account transfers are not being handled anymore, but I don’t really understand why or what I’m supposed to do in this situation.
Has anyone else had the same issue? Did anyone manage to fix it, or is there any workaround?

I would really appreciate any help or explanation, because right now I can’t properly access or buy the premium vehicles I would like to get from PC.

Thanks in advance.

Hi

As we stated here:

IMPORTANT!

  • If you play mainly on PC and make purchases in the PS Store, then in order to correctly credit a purchase to your account, after making a payment you have to log in to the game via Playstation console. Until this is done, your purchase will not be credited to your account.
  • Please note that the Premium account included in PlayStation Store bundles is not carried over to the PC version. However Premium account purchased within the game, as well as all other purchases made with Golden Eagles in the PlayStation version are also displayed in the PC game client.
  • You can play PC version of the game only using the non-Steam launcher that can be downloaded from the game’s site.
