Treasure Hunt

The Major Content Update for War Thunder Mobile is now in the game!

In this update, you can expect to see the following:

New mode in the ship campaign – Treasure Hunt.
New vehicles – sailing galleons.
New naval location – “Caribbean Sea”.
New mechanics – firing from both sides and using different ordnance from the cannons.
New mission system, which has been recreated in accordance with the flibuster maps.
Unique vehicles in trophies.

New mode

For the first time in the game – an unprecedented “Treasure Hunt” mode. Steer the galleon, fight other pirates in the Caribbean Sea, complete missions, get pieces of maps, find doubloons and open pirate chests with real treasures!

From April 1st to April 8th (ends at 10:00 GMT), fight in a new campaign and get vehicles in unique camouflage.

In total, you can get 3400 Doubloons over the event:

200 pieces – the welcome event bonus;
3200 pieces – for obtaining treasure on 6 islands.

You can buy another 600 doubloons (2х300) for Golden Eagles and an unlimited amount for Platinum Wolves.

It takes 30 attempts to hit the jackpot for one campaign. You are guaranteed to get one vehicle from the pirate trophy if you complete the missions on all islands. You can obtain the top prize of the campaign before reaching the jackpot.

Important information

The new mode is available through the Hangar of any campaign by tapping on the special themed icon.
After reading the rules of the new mode you will get access to the first island.
To open the next island and start exploring, collect the required number of map pieces. You can get them for completing tasks on islands (enough to open all islands) or buy them in the store (if you want to explore several islands at the same time).

The “To Battle!” button takes you to a special location where you will fight other players on pirate galleons.
Click on the image of the island on the global map of the mode to see your progress of exploration.
Red cross – the section of the island is unexplored, white – you have completed the mission and explored the section. Red coin - position of the main reward on the island.
A flashing cross on the island map means that you have completed the task and can collect the reward.
Island sections can be explored sequentially, the direction will be indicated by a dotted line. If there are several paths to the reward on the map, you can choose any of them or explore both directions.
For battles in the Caribbean Sea you will receive silver, which is taken into account in the Common Rating. There are also some seasonal naval campaign tasks can be completed in the new mode.

Mode Features

You have one pirate galleon at your disposal.
Ship repair and crew treatment are not provided.
Aiming is performed not by “cross”, but from the side (left and right) – the cannons are located on both sides of the galleon. To shoot you need to turn to the enemy with the relevant board. Watch the white line – it indicates the direction of the shot and whether the shell will reach the selected enemy ship.
Point at the enemy ship to see the information about the damage.

You can use three types of ordnance to attack the enemy:
- Shot – maximum range about 750 meters, standard damage.
- Explosive shot – maximum range of about 750 meters, increased damage, reloading – 60 seconds.
- Chain shot (a bunch of small shots) – range about 30 to 450 m, damages sails, reducing maneuverability and speed of the enemy, recharge – 40 seconds.
You can fire from both boards if the opponents are on either side of you.

Pirate Trophy Rewards

In the Pirate Trophy of the Tank Campaign, you'll find the coolest platoon of RBT-5s (Rank I):

RBT-5 – a crazy Soviet light tank with a rocket surprise for the enemy.
Matilda MK-II – an indestructible British lady in heavy armor.
T-34 (Prototype) – a fast, maneuverable and technologically advanced for its time Soviet medium tank, brought to a berserk state by creative constructors.
BTR-152A – Soviet SPAAG with two 14.5mm machine guns capable of turning enemy planes into falling torches.

The sea pirate trophy contains the unique Soviet missile boat – Pr.1124 MLRS (Rank I):

Pr.1124 MLRS– small and deadly. Its 132 mm caliber rockets turn enemies into a pile of sinking scrap metal, and its high speed allows you to quickly escape from the enemy's retaliation.

Important: The rocket launcher takes the range correction, but you will have to take the range correction for a moving target yourself.

Aviation fans will get the relentless American F4U-1A Corsair (Rank III) fighter aircraft from Airplane Trophy:

The F4U-1A Corsair is a fast and furious tornado with six 12.7mm cannons and a bomb load that can dominate the skies and strike the ground, turning enemies into a pile of smoking metal.

The “Caribbean Sea” location

A magnificent sea location with reefs and shoals, deep blue water and bright sky will appeal to both pirates and those who have long dreamed of a vacation.
