We are pleased to present a new air battle map in War Thunder, which we've titled Greece.
Close combat amid labyrinths of cliffs in a colorful Mediterranean landscape?
Boom and zoom from out of the clouds? This has all that, again and again! Clear prop!
We are pleased to present a new air battle map for War Thunder 1.63 Desert Hunters, which we've titled Greece. This location was designed based on Mediterranean landscapes. As for designing the map’s unusual terrain, our artists took inspiration from the Metéora rock formation in Greece. We've tried to design the terrain of this small map as a giant labyrinth with a multitude of twists and turns, cover and obstacles at various heights. A number of traditional Mediterranean homes with Dutch tile roofs are plastered all over the stone slopes on 'Greece', and bright sun rays shine through to add to the palette of grey cliffs and thick greenery.

'Greece' was created primarily with Arcade air battles in mind. It's a lot of fun to chase each other at high speeds on this map, dodging trees and cliffs, constantly changing your roll and provoking your pursuers to crash into cliffs or houses. Every pilot is sure to be excited by the refreshing and merry battles in the complex labyrinth of this mountain village! Fans of boom and zoom strategies will find plenty to do here too – opponents constantly maneuvering at low altitudes means they'll have a lower speed, which you can take advantage of. But be careful when you pull out of your attack – moving at speed makes things harder to control, and the chances are high that you'll imprint your airplane in a stone wall. Bomber targets are located a little further from the gorge: while fighters are busy trading bullets, bombers can decide the course of the battle themselves, methodically dropping bomb after bomb on enemy bases. Fighter, keep an eye on your bombers – both yours and your enemy's!
One of the landscapes in the Metéora complex that inspired our artists when they were creating the location.
We truly hope that you like our new Greece map as much as we do. See you in War Thunder 1.63 Desert Hunters and in the skies of Greece! Until next time!
The War Thunder Team!

Please don't do it only for AB, such a terrible waste
you rb people need to get a grip, all day every day complaining as if arcade players are plebs and supposed to read all these hostile nonsence that they don't deserve new map? that they are somehow spoiled???
lyrillvempos1327, also read below Stona said it's "arcade style map" it's prolly not going to be arcade only, i don't know why people upvote this comment knowingly ignoring that, just to get visibility to force devs to actually deliver rb version too? please..
Yeeees, thank you Gaijin for letting me fight for my country!!
just how many % of playerbase is from greece?
lyrillvempos1327, There are arround 700+ possible greek players in the game :)

Which was shot here Stona :) https://creti.co/blog/stavros-beach-crete/
while it's ok to feel useful as bomber, it can't feel autowin as them, not that fighters shouldn't take care of bombers, it should feel skillful and tactical to deal with bombers than either too ez and boring or plain painful chasing too many of them around while they happily drop bombs all the same
Adding new maps is always great! I would have a little request regarding RB, however... if you're not adding a map in which Germany can face the US and/or the UK, please do something about Norway. It pops up way to often in rotation, some days even 3 times in a row. I don't even remember the last time I played on Malta for example...
3 times in a row!!!??? really??? how about 7? yeah had a screenie of the battles results messages for quite some time. And yeah I would LOVE to get on Malta battles a bit more.
Malta...my god i almost forgot about that map.... the single reason i started playing WT. Anyone remember those great historical events over Malta with F4's, SpitVb's, Mc202's amd Sm.79's..aarr, happy days
Just an observation. Has anyone else noticed that for a patch called "Desert Hunters" we are yet to see anything to do with the desert ?!
It's all in the sekrit dokumints tovaritch! ;)
Since Desert Rats are already here, it could only mean Desert Storm! With F-16 and M1 Abrams and such...
Gib us cold war tank maps
Very good work Gaijin, can we expect this map to be the first with combined arms game ? (Air Land and Sea)
Sadly we cannot disclose such information just yet. Stay tuned for CBT! We will provide more information during the testing.
Stona just a question. Is this map only for AIR AB? Or it will be also in RB rotation? It's not clear from the devblog
It's an Arcade style map.
Stona_WT, Good to hear that, another useless arcade map. They already have a million of them while i play always on the same 4 maps in RB. At least fix the damn map rotations, i see only saipan, port moresby, sicily and norway
Awesome! Cant wait to play on this map! Επιτελους και μια ελληνικη τοποθεσια! Ειστε ωραιοι :)
Sparta!!!!!!!!
Aaaaaaaahm no... Sparta is in Heloponisous , Meteora is on Thesaly
_MaReX_, Not Heloponisous, Peloponisous, thank god you are not Greek and say that.
