Update 3.85 has arrived for War Thunder, and here’s the full list of changes and fixes added with this patch.
Gaijin Entertainment is always constantly updating War Thunder as a new update has been released for the game in the early hours of September 11th, 2021. The update on PS4 is version 3.85, although it’s officially patch 2.9.0.21.
Unlike previous updates for the game that balance gameplay and change vehicle stats, today’s patch is mainly to address some niggling bug fixes.
Many bug fixes that were made have been to improve the sound of the game. Some of the sounds of the game were missing, so they have been added back in.
