On May 18, from 17:00 through 22:00 (JST), the servers will undergo maintenance to deploy Update 2.1.21.
Update from the previous version: SD—262.94 MB, HD—45.36 MB (in addition to SD).
Update 2.1.21 introduces a brand-new reward aircraft:
This modification of the legendary German fighter truly packs a punch: Its armament includes one nose-mounted and two wing-mounted 30 mm autocannons that can knock targets out of the sky in one fell swoop!
To earn this warplane, you'll need to participate in the upcoming game event.
From May 29 through June 26, the game will host the Rise of the Kurfürst global event. Here you will see the return of the Bomber Escort, Invasion, and Attrition modes. The event will be divided into four stages, and each stage will have two identical phases: the first one will last from Thursday at 20:20 (JST) through Friday at 23:00 (JST), and the second one from Saturday 20:20 (JST) through Sunday at 23:00 (JST).
Upon completing personal missions, you will receive supply crates containing many valuable rewards, such as days of Premium Account, gold, consumables, equipment and materials for its enhancement, as well as Hangar Slots and, of course, the operation order for the Messerschmitt Bf 109 K-6 Kurfürst together with a unique decoration set.
Besides, each stage and phase will have a global goal that you will have to achieve in battles alongside other players. Reaching these goals will double the number of supply crates you can receive, so long as you make at least a minimal contribution to the mission's overall progress! After the event's active stage is over, you will still have a couple of days to complete the operation's missions and open supply crates.
You can skip several operations or the whole chain by purchasing certificates in the Premium Shop. Also, if by the time the operation's execution has expired, not all the missions have been completed, you can resume their execution using Tokens.
Added the Rise of the Kurfürst achievement that can be earned in the upcoming game event.
Added support for new languages to the game:
Added new emblems commemorating the French Air Force and the U.S.A. Independence Day 2023.
Fixed a rare issue that made repairing aircraft after battle and reentering battles impossible. Affected players will now be able to repair their warplanes and return them into ranks.
In case the repair still does not fix the issue, you will need to send the aircraft's crew to the Barracks for some much-needed R&R after spending all this time in the cockpit.
