The War Thunder Championship Series (WTCS) moves forward!

In early July, the Armored Apex 4v4 tournament came to an end. And what a finale it was! Team AVReS stormed through the qualifiers, dominated the play-offs, and finished undefeated with a 3-0 sweep over LEET on Sinai. With this incredible run, AVReS not only claims the Armored Apex 2025 trophy, but also rises to the top of the WTCS leaderboard with 256 points!

Make way for the last Major of the 2025 season before the Grand Finals. The Air Superiority Tournament, sponsored by Thrustmaster!
