War Thunder gets Storm Warning

The new update brings Rafale and Typhoon modern jet fighters and dozens of other iconic military vehicles

Gaijin Entertainment announces the release of the “Storm Warning” major content update for the military online shooter War Thunder. The game now features the Thai air force subtree, top-of-the-line 4.5-generation fighters Typhoon and Rafale (“gust of wind”), the modern German self-propelled gun Panzerhaubitze 2000, the French light cruiser La Galissonnière, dozens of other military vehicles, as well as a new map “Attica”, inspired by the landscapes of Greece.

The Eurofighter Typhoon is a modern 4.5-generation fighter, which was created jointly by Germany, UK and Italy, and is currently also in service with Austria, Spain, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. It can carry up to 10 air-to-air missiles, including the AIM-9 Sidewinder and AIM-120 AMRAAM. This arsenal, supplemented by a helmet-mounted targeting system and an advanced CAPTOR radar, make the Eurofighter one of the best aircraft in the game for both close and long-range air combat.

Rafale is the most modern French-produced fighter jet in the game. The Rafale F3-R version that debuts in War Thunder was accepted into service in 2018. In addition to the French Air Force, it is also used by Greece and Croatia. The aircraft is especially effective in long-range combat thanks to its MICA-EM ARH missiles. To destroy ground targets, the Rafale has a high-precision weapons system AASM HAMMER, new to War Thunder, with an extensive arsenal of guided bombs.

The Thai sub-tree has been added to the Japanese aviation line and will expand the tactical options for players leveling this branch. For example, they will now have access to the F-5T SCU “Tigris” light jet fighter, which can be equipped with Python 3 air-to-air missiles.

The Panzerhaubitze 2000 is one of the most modern and advanced self-propelled howitzers in the world. The shells of its 155 mm L52 gun, about 8 meters long, can hit targets at distances of tens of kilometers, and the reload speed can get as low as 6 seconds with a good crew. Despite its weight of almost 58 tons, the Panzerhaubitze 2000 is capable of reaching speeds of up to 60 km/h on a good road, thanks to which it can quickly change position.

Detailed information about the new content in the “Storm Warning” update is available on the official website of the game.

The “child of Polytopia and Civilization” is coming on January 20th into Steam Early Access.

Oslo – Norway / Hamburg – Germany, 17.12.2024. –  “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisici elit …” wait, wait, wait! We’re not here to reopen old wounds from Latin class. Developer Billionworlds and Publisher Daedalic Entertainment are here to bring a revitalizing and focused approach back to 4X strategy. Tired of strategy games where it takes dozens of turns for anything exciting to happen? Yield! Fall of Rome redefines the 4X experience with its focused gameplay, meaningful decisions, and a fresh take on the genre.

The 4X Game That Won’t Keep You Waiting

If you’ve ever grown impatient waiting for your workers to build a scout in 7 turns, Yield! Fall of Rome is the game for you. Forget endless micromanagement—every turn offers exciting decisions and impactful actions. Lead legendary tribes such as the Britons, Huns, and Franks against the all-mighty Romans, and dive straight into the heart of the action as you shape the destiny of the ancient world.

As one player put it: “After playing Yield! I realized how slow other games can feel. In Yield!, every turn matters, and I didn’t have to waste time waiting to make big moves.”

Build Empires, Conquer Foes, Rewrite History

In Yield! Fall of Rome, you’ll step into the shoes of a barbarian leader during the twilight of the Roman Empire. Choose from 8 unique factions, each offering distinct gameplay styles and challenges. Whether through diplomacy, warfare, or strategic cunning, carve out your empire and bring glory to your tribe.

  • Accessible Yet Deep: Intuitive mechanics make it easy to start, while advanced strategies reward skilled players.
  • Multiplayer Options: Play solo, cooperatively, or competitively with asynchronous multiplayer modes offering flexibility and fun.

Why Yield! Stands Out

Yield! Fall of Rome combines the best of traditional 4X gameplay with a modern twist: fast, engaging sessions without the grind. It’s been called “the child of Civilization and Battle for Polytopia,” bringing the best of both worlds into a uniquely immersive experience.

Meeting the Devs at Lindner in Austria

The annual event for fans, modders, and influencers to meet the team and creative minds behind Farming Simulator takes place at the Innovation Center of the renowned agricultural manufacturer and long-time partner Lindner in Kundl, Austria.

“We’re thrilled with the amazing reactions from the community to Farming Simulator 25! This enthusiasm motivates us every day, and we can’t wait to reveal more exciting updates at FarmCon” comments Christian Ammann, CEO at GIANTS Software. “We’re also incredibly grateful to Lindner for providing the venue for this year’s event. Their unwavering support and contributions truly elevate the experience for everyone. See you at FarmCon 25!”

As is tradition since the first FarmCon in 2016, visitors get the chance to learn more about current and upcoming Farming Simulator 25 projects from the developers during their stage presentations and talk to them directly in Q&A sessions and meetups. A highly limited dinner ticket will give attendees the rare opportunity to meet the developers in a more personal and exclusive setting over dinner.

Stage Presentations, Factory Tours & Tractor Driving

GIANTS Software and Lindner will offer a variety of activities on and off the stage. Visitors can also take factory tours and, if they’re quick enough, get a ride on Lindner’s iconic red tractors on the test track. Meanwhile, many fans catch up with old and new friends or meet some of their favorite influencers.

“We are more than happy to host the FarmCon 25 in our Innovation Center and to welcome the international gaming community’’, says David Lindner, CEO at Lindner.

More information about the program, schedule, and activities of the annual community event, organized by GIANTS Software, will be announced closer to the event. The FarmCon 24 Aftermovie offers a glimpse of what to expect.
