Battle Pass comes to War Thunder! It is a seasonal event, where you can take part any time you like. Get handy combat items, and exclusive items! Decals, titles, decorations, avatars, and even Premium vehicles!
We will announce the start of the first Battle Pass season when it's ready.
In Battle Pass, you earn progress points and progress through the levels. Every level gives access to a special prize.
Prizes
Every season of Battle Pass introduces new and exclusive prizes. Here are some examples of the rewards you can receive in the first season:
The unique Australian modification of the British Matilda tank used to storm enemy positions in the Pacific Theatre. An anti-submarine bomb launcher (!) with 7 HESH bombs has been mounted near the tank engine and transmission module.
This destroyer built in the middle of the 1930’s saw service in the Mediterranean, the Northern Convoys and even in Africa. During the war it served in the Polish Navy, was seriously damaged several times but not destroyed!
A version of the legendary carrier aircraft with an incredibly powerful 3000 hp engine. One of the versions was the “Super Corsair” that was created to become an effective means of dealing with Japanese kamikaze aircraft.
An improved modification of the latest soviet serial heavy T-10 tank. This armoured giant was equipped with a gun stabiliser and a night vision device.
Battle Pass
Any player can progress through levels and get prizes marked as “Free”, including Premium vehicles and exclusive items.
To get prizes from all levels, purchase the Battle Pass.
Battle Pass can be purchased for Golden Eagles. After purchase, it is active all season long, and its owner can obtain prizes from every level, even from those completed earlier. It is up to you to decide when you like to buy your Battle Pass.
How to take part
Every level unlocks with 10 progress points. Earn progress points in battle, by completing special challenges, or just logging in to the game even if you don’t have a purchased Battle Pass.
Enter the game
Every day you will earn progress points in addition to your daily reward.
The more consecutive day-to-day logins, the more progress points you get, from 1 to 5 daily.
Complete Battle Tasks
Completed Battle Tasks now bring additional bonuses in progress points.
Easy tasks - 2 points; Medium tasks - 3 points; Special tasks - 5 points.
Complete Season Challenges
New feature of the Battle Pass seasons.
Get 3 Season Challenges when the season starts, and get an additional challenge every week.
A completed Challenge grants 30 progress points at once!
See the War Thunder Wiki to learn more details!
Battle Tasks changes
You will get additional progress points as a reward for completing daily Battle Tasks. Warbonds can now be achieved by unlocking Battle Pass levels.
- Easy and medium Battle Tasks now give 2 and 3 progress points respectively.
- A Special Battle Task can be purchased for purchase permission. Permission is granted on every completion of a medium Battle Task. You are able to collect permissions throughout the season and use them at your own discretion. Special Battle Tasks give you 5 progress points after they are completed.
F.A.Q.
Q. How long does a season last?
- The minimum duration for a season is 75 days. But it may also be longer, depending on the calendar and other in game events.
Q. Can I earn progress points and receive prizes after a season ends?
- No, after the season ends any earning of progress points will be disabled until the start of a new season. Please note also that all earned in the current season permissions for performing (Special) tasks will be reset. So you will not be able to “stockpile” them between seasons.
Q. Will it be possible to use the awards after a season ends?
- Yes, all rewards will remain with you after a season ends. Some of the prizes are exclusive and can be received only during the season, but you can use them without any restrictions.
Q. How do I purchase a “Battle Pass”?
- The "Battle Pass" and "Improved Battle Pass" can be purchased for Golden Eagles on the special in-game page. You can also purchase “Battle Pass” levels for Golden Eagles.
Q. What will happen if I purchase a “Battle Pass” after a season has started, in the middle or at the end of the season?
- You will receive all the rewards you have earned, both exclusive and free, up to your current “Battle Pass'' level at the end of the event. Taking into account that the speed of earning progress points is not reliant on the purchase of a “Battle Pass” nor is it necessary to purchase a “Battle Pass” immediately. However it is not advisable to delay its purchase as a late receipt of the part of the “Battle Pass” rewards may deprive you of your well-deserved competitive advantage in the peak season.
Q. Why is it preferable to purchase the “Improved Battle Pass”? Does it give any special prize?
- An “Improved Battle Pass” doesn't give access to any special new prizes, but it does open 15 levels of the “battle Pass” immediately, which is 20% of the entire basic prize table.
Q. Do I have to purchase a "Battle Pass"? Is it possible to receive rewards for free?
- It isn’t necessary to purchase a “Battle Pass”. In any season, a significant part of the prize fund is free, including one of the exclusive premium vehicles. Also all the Warbonds within the main part of the prize table are free.
Q. Can I earn progress points on any vehicles and in any game modes?
- The process of earning progress points is universal in terms of awards for entering the game. Earning the Daily Battle Tasks are traditionally connected with random battles with restrictions on low rank vehicles. Accordingly, earning on Season Сhallenges of the “Battle Pass” is made by analogy with daily tasks and are also connected to random battles and has restrictions on the Battle Rating of the vehicles. On some vehicle types there are no restrictions at all: you can earn progress points in all vehicle types; aircraft, ground vehicles, naval vessels and helicopters.
Q. As the known number of Warbonds that you can collect is limited. What will happen if my prize in the Warbonds exceeds this limit? Will it just “expire” to nowhere?
- No, earned Warbonds will not “expire”. The awarding of a prize will just be postponed until you have spent an amount of Warbonds to fit the limit for the selected prize. For example: you have already 500 Warbonds and your prize, which you will receive, is assessed by 1000 Warbonds. The limit is 1000. So you will not receive your prize (for 1000 Warbonds) till you will spend at least 500 in the Warbonds shop.
Q. Will I be able to trade received coupons on the market?
- Yes, but the coupons can only be traded on the market 75 days after it is received.

Battle Pass Season I prizes: https://wiki.warthunder.com/Battle_Pass:_Season_I
Oh no, wallet warriors are going to love this!
PLEASE! More paywalls and limited rewards for F2P players, Gaijoob! Very cool!
As i read the list above, if you dont pay for the battle pass then you gota grind to get them levels, and if you pay you skip levels (get all their rewards). The next problem is, this system seems to be working with or take over for the regular warbond shop, how often do we get new vehicles there... Meaning if theyr gona fill list with new vehicles every 75 days then that means less vehicles in regular trees \ premiums because they will have to fill this battle pass list vehicles... problem?
Lets pray this whole thing turns out as flop so they won't do it again. The last thing I wanna see vehicles for nations with sparse tech trees having vehicles locked behind a season pass.
I was expecting way worst from Gaijin. The fact it is free and have more rewards with the premium battle pass is a nice feature. So really, thank you for thinking about players that play for free. More concern towards them and so me, make me want to actually support you!
Honestly while I love this events my biggest issue with them is the timer. Im fine with buying the battle pass, im fine with having to grind/pay to get the rewards, but the timer always stresses me out/kills my mood. making me very anxious and often killing my mood/enjoy ment for a game, it happened with Armored warfare and that game had a 90 day battle pass! My improvements would be either A make the Battle pass free for those who have premium account activated or remove the timer.
these* Honestly the whole idea of "Once its gone its gone!" kinda turns me off, the Battle pass for fallout 76 is free, the armored warfare one is like 10$ This one seems to be around 16$ so what would I get that the armored warfare and fallout 76 battle passes don't offer? Since the next AW Battle pass is going to give players a premium tier 4 ZSU-23-4 Shika as the first rank!(the one you first unlock when you buy the thing)
Iron_flame, And as a Consumer I have to ask myself "Why should I spend, my time, money and energy here if I can go play other games? What does Gaijin have to offer to make my Experience unlike any other for this Battle pass?" These are questions that I want Gaijin to help me find an answer to. I love war thunder, but I also love a few other free to play and payed experiences, Warframe, Armored warfare and fallout 4. With that being said if War thunder does this model I want to see its spin on it beoriginal
Congrats snail, you've basically killed your game by permanent toxic event gameplay...GG
So buying premium time is not enough $$ for you Gaijin, nor the premium vehicles? You could have added these vehicle to the warbond system or the squadron vehicle system, but another grind has been created. Can this be done in the time or does it get the people who have a vulnerability to gambling and physiological need to have in effect "digital nothings" being preyed upon by another unscrupulous company? Time will tell, but we already know.
can Simulator pilots and tankers complete these tasks also or will they be excluded again , like with the daily challenges and warbonds... i dont think its nice to exclude a portion of your player base from their preferred game mode to make them use this. Please include Simulator mode to partake.
Never in my life have I been so legitimately disappointed in the developers of this game. Way to go guys! You some how managed to perfectly implement the absolute OPPOSITE of what your community wanted. That actually had to have taken work to mess this up that bad.
Wait, Who asked for it ?
