Dev Notes: PTE and Development Progress

We’re glad to share an update on the test build, including the progress we’ve made and what comes next. Steam post image The team is currently focused on several key tasks. Major changes to gameplay and core mechanics are ahead, along with a full balance review. These decisions are meant to expand the game’s potential and build a stronger foundation for its future development.

We are currently working on the test build and have already made solid progress. More than half of the planned work is now complete. We expect to begin public testing in April. Once we receive your feedback, the team will focus on fixing the remaining issues, making further adjustments, and then rolling the build out to the main version of the game.

Based on your feedback, we have identified the main issues in the current version and the areas that need priority attention. This showed us that several core mechanics and parts of unit balance need to be reworked, as they directly affect match pace, the role of certain weapon types, and the importance of different stages of battle.

In the test build, these areas have become the basis for targeted changes to gameplay mechanics and unit behavior. Our goal is to make the gameplay smoother and more refined while preserving tactical depth and a wide range of viable decisions.

The test version includes a full rebalance of air defense, the anti-overkill mechanic, and aircraft timers. These changes are meant to make air strikes more varied and give counterplay tools clearer roles. We have also revised the balance of cruise missiles to reduce their dominant impact on battles. Major changes have been made to tank stats, and the functionality of infantry transports has been expanded to strengthen the connection between different unit types. In addition, we are refining the game mode to increase the importance of key points throughout the match.

We will continue sharing development details and progress updates as we move closer to testing.

We sincerely hope these upcoming changes will excite you as much as they excite us. We look forward to sharing more details about everything that lies ahead.
