New Season: Awakened
The Awakened season is upon us! It features the British Tier IX Cobra Medium Tank with its devastating gun and the T-55 Enigma Escalation Era Independent Medium Tank with composite armor that is hungry to eat incoming rounds.
Japanese Firepower
The remainder of the Japanese heavy tanks has been updated with multi-turret functionality to awaken their full arsenal of firepower!
Along with this, we added individual gun support for each of the weapons available on multi-turreted tanks. This allows each gun to independently lock onto vehicles, meaning it's possible to target multiple tanks at the same time! For example, you could lock on to Tank A with your main turret and lock on to Tank B with your secondary turret.
Unfortunately, with the new support added, there are some known issues when aiming in first person or sniper cam. When you enter these views, the turrets not currently being controlled will freeze in place and not follow your camera. We are working to address this issue as soon as possible.
Store Improvements
For bundles with tank skins, selecting the Skin will show the vehicle with the Skin equipped in the preview window.

The button legend now shows the "Scroll" button when you're viewing a bundle with longer details.

Garage Improvements
Commander Display
The Commander display in the garage has been improved to display additional information:
- The number of Skill slots open
- The Skills currently assigned
- Any open slot that isn't filled with a Skill

Special Matchmaking Indicator
Tanks with Special Matchmaking will have their "Plays up to Tier" display colorized in a yellow/gold background so it's more apparent that the vehicle has Special Matchmaking.
