War Thunder update 1.67 will also introduce a new game mode in which players need to fend off waves of tanks from strategic locations on the map.
Gaijin explains:
“ For tankers, combat is fought tank to tank on the ground, with the ability to temporarily support teammates in attack aircraft or bombers. Pilots are tasked with maintaining air superiority over a zone by fending off enemy bombers approaching from all directions. As each successive wave is stronger than the previous one, players have to work together to hold out until the end, upon which they will receive well-deserved rewards.”
