Update 3.86 has arrived for War Thunder, and here’s the full list of changes and fixes added with this patch.

Gaijin Entertainment has now released a new update for War Thunder that should be rolling out today on all platforms. For PS4 owners this is patch 3.86. Otherwise this patch is known as version 2.9.0.33 for PC and version 2.9.0.31 for consoles.

Today’s patch is different from the changelog from two days ago. The small update from before added a fix to stop the game from crashing on PS4. There was also a fix for those playing the game in VR.

Well the new patch is bigger as it includes several improvements and fixes to the overall gameplay. There are also many balance updates to the vehicles in the game too.

Full details can be seen posted down below.
