War Thunder Names Sky Odyssey as Its Next Major Update and Shares a Trailer
Gaijin Entertainment introduces the upcoming update without announcing its release date or feature lineup.
War Thunder’s next major update has a name, Sky Odyssey. Gaijin Entertainment introduced the project with a trailer in its Steam announcement, but stopped short of detailing what the update will add or when it will arrive.
The announcement confirms that Sky Odyssey is the next major update and presents the trailer as its introduction. No release date, vehicle lineup, game mode, or changelog was provided, so the video serves as an early name reveal rather than a full feature briefing.
Until Gaijin shares more information, Sky Odyssey remains an upcoming War Thunder update without a confirmed launch schedule. Tell us what you think of the new direction in the comments, and follow us on X, Bluesky, YouTube, Instagram, Steam, and Telegram.
War Thunder
Developed by Gaijin Entertainment
War Thunder is a free-to-play vehicular combat MMO featuring aircraft, ground vehicles, and naval craft spanning from the early 20th century to the modern era. Players progress through technology trees across multiple nations, unlocking increasingly advanced military vehicles. The game offers three realism tiers for each vehicle type: arcade, realistic, and simulator modes. Originally developed as a flight simulator under the name "World of Planes," the game expanded to include tanks in 2014 and naval forces later, becoming a combined-arms experience.
