New Locations: “Rocky Pillars” and “Test Site — 2271”

We’re excited to bring you the first screenshots of two new locations that will be arriving to War Thunder in the next major update: “Rocky Pillars” for aviation, and “Test Site — 2271” for mixed battles!

Rocky Pillars

We created the Rocky Pillars map based on the mainland mountain landscapes of Southeast Asia. The weathering on the sandstone and limestone makes rock formations on this map certainly look rather interesting. Soon, pilots will be flying over the stone pillars and lush green cliffs where engines will roar, machine guns will go rat-tat-tat and pew pew, and the fiery wrecks of destroyed aircraft will burn!

Test Site — 2271

The recent Atomic Heart robot event showcased the Test Site — 2271 map, and we’re happy to say that thanks to your positive feedback, we’ve made further improvements to it! This map will be coming to the game for mixed battles as part of the next major update.
