New Content for Season 2

Season 2, Fire & Ash, brings a new Defender Agent to HEAT: Gambit, arriving with two new vehicles built around disruption and battlefield support. Ember also gains a new flamethrower vehicle, the M1150 Breacher.

New Agent & 2 New Tanks

Gambit, Defender Agent

Gambit Defender

New Agent

Born to rebuild the terms of a fight, Gambit turns his allies' hulls, tracks, and shields into problems the enemy solves twice, and every hit that lands on him becomes a signal he traces straight back to its source. Where other Agents defend a position, Gambit defends the whole team and makes attacking him a mistake in itself.

Agent Trait: Feedback Loop

Whenever Gambit takes damage, the attacker is hit with Interference equal to the damage dealt, more if they got in close, and even more if they rammed him. Shoot Gambit from far away and the trace fails, but get close and his systems turn every shot against you.

Agent Ultimate: Iron Curtain

Gambit deploys a swarm of drones that reinforces every ally in a radius: hulls, tracks, and shields all surge with temporary protection that fades over time. It turns an ally squad into one that can suddenly absorb far more than the enemy expects.

M60A3E2

M60A3E2 New Vehicle

Main Gun: Single Shot, APHE Shell

The M60A3E2 is built around applique armor plating that reacts to an applied electric current, growing harder under load. It cannot be welded or press-formed, which limits where it can be used structurally, but as bolt-on protection it is excellent: a mobile, mid-armor off-tank suited to diving into a fight rather than holding a line.

The M60A3E2 carries two abilities built around soaking damage and then punishing whoever gets close.

1st Ability: Energized Plating

Charges the vehicle's armor plating, making its shell screens immune to damage for the duration and boosting track health and regeneration so it becomes far harder to immobilize. Any shell screens already broken when the ability activates begin regenerating immediately. The ability can be interrupted by Interference.

2nd Ability: Blast Projectors

Detonates concussion charges hidden beneath the applique armor, releasing a blast wave that damages nearby enemy vehicles, tracks, and shields. The longer it is charged before detonating, the more damage it deals. Hold it too long, however, and the M60A3E2 goes into overcharge, taking damage itself and eventually slowing or immobilizing on release. All of the vehicle's own shields are destroyed on detonation regardless of charge time. This ability can also be interrupted by Interference.

How to Play
  • Dive into engagements, using mobility and armor to absorb the opening exchange.
  • Activate Energized Plating to shrug off incoming shells and hold position under fire.
  • Charge Blast Projectors to punish enemies who group up or overextend near you.
  • Detonate early for a safer, smaller blast, or hold the charge for maximum damage at your own risk.
  • Use track durability to stay mobile even while soaking damage.
T-72SH

T-72SH New Vehicle

Main Gun: Autoloader, APHE

The T-72SH runs an autoloader feeding APHE rounds, so it can put several shells downrange in quick succession rather than leaning on a single heavy hit. Where the M60A3E2 dives into a fight, the T-72SH is built to control the space around it and scramble what the enemy can target in the first place.

Its two abilities are built to disrupt enemy targeting and lock down ground.

1st Ability: Disruption Field Generator

Projects a magnetic field in front of the T-72SH that distorts laser rangefinders and other targeting systems. Enemies looking through the field are hit with a targeting-disruption effect, reducing the effectiveness of many of their weapon systems for as long as they stay in view of it. The field is attached to the turret, so it tracks wherever the T-72SH aims. This ability can be interrupted by Interference.

2nd Ability: Tesla Discs

Slings three floating Tesla Discs out from a turret-mounted launcher. They come to rest a few meters off the ground at set points ahead of the tank, or wherever they first collide with something solid. Once deployed, each disc periodically drops an energy pulse that deals true damage and applies Interference to anything caught in it. The discs have their own health pool and can be destroyed by enemy fire, but until then they keep pressuring the area they were placed in.

How to Play
  • Use Disruption Field Generator to blunt incoming fire before trading shots.
  • Aim the field at whoever is threatening you most, since it only affects enemies looking through it.
  • Place Tesla Discs to lock down chokepoints, objectives, or flanks.
  • Let the discs apply sustained Interference and damage while you focus on other targets.
  • Fall back on your APHE shell for decisive single hits once the enemy is disrupted.

New Vehicle for Ember

Ember, Defender Agent

Ember Defender

The M1150 Breacher pairs a flamethrower turret weapon with explosive reactive armor along its sides, covering what would otherwise be thin side protection, plus reinforced frontal turret armor. It is built to get close, apply pressure, and control where the enemy can go.

M1150 Breacher

M1150 Breacher New Vehicle

Main Gun: Flamethrower

LMB shoots a stream of fire; RMB uses grease to set up bigger burns. This is an overheat weapon: fire continuously and the gun overheats, forcing a brief cooldown before you can shoot again. The M1150 Breacher pairs its flamethrower turret with explosive reactive armor along the sides - covering what would otherwise be thin side protection - plus reinforced frontal turret armor. It is built to get close, apply pressure, and control what the enemy can see and where they can go.

1st Ability: Line Charges

Launches a volley of munitions from the back of the turret in two parallel lines extending forward, which detonate simultaneously after landing. It works like a faster, smaller-scale area-denial tool, trading size and windup for speed. The projectiles can be intercepted by APS or other physics objects, and the turret cannot rotate while the ability is active. This ability can be interrupted by Interference.

2nd Ability: Incendiary Launchers

Fires projectiles roughly 40 meters out that create a combined fire zone and black smoke screen on impact, blocking both regular and thermal vision. It is built to cut enemies off from their team, isolating targets inside the smoke where they cannot easily see or be seen. Like Line Charges, these projectiles can be intercepted before landing, and the ability can be interrupted by Interference.

How to Play
  • Push in close, where the flamethrower and reactive armor are most effective.
  • Use Line Charges for a fast, close-range burst against grouped enemies.
  • Deploy Incendiary Launchers to cut off an isolated target from support.
  • Rely on smoke to block thermal sighting as well as regular vision.
  • Lean on turret armor when facing return fire from the front.

New This Update

New Game Mode

20v20 Conquest

Conquest is going bigger. Alongside the Conquest you already know, we’re adding a brand new 20 vs 20 version, same objective, same fight for the bases, just twice the tanks on the field.

  • 20 vs 20. Full-scale warfare.
  • 5 bases up for grabs at once.
  • Unlimited respawns, so get back in there and keep fighting.
  • Available during peak hours only, just like Plant/Defuse.
New

Distance-Coded Reticle

Your reticle now shows the distance to whatever it's pointed at. For AP, APHE, and canister shells, this distance reading is color-coded to reflect your shot's effectiveness: green while within optimal range, yellow once you're past optimal range but not too far out, and red when you're far enough that damage and penetration drop off significantly. HE, HEAT, and ATGM shells aren't affected by this system, so their distance reading won't change color.

New

LOCK DENIED Marker

When you're unable to lock onto a target, you'll now see a "LOCK DENIED" marker letting you know the lock-on attempt was blocked. This applies to Fuzzer's Strike Laser ultimate, Kent's Contracted Strike ultimate, and AMX 10 RC's Top-Attack Missiles. This is separate from the existing "Out of Range" marker, so you'll always have clearer feedback on exactly why a lock-on isn't going through.

New

Ping Spam Cooldown

Added a cooldown system for pings to prevent spam. Cooldowns are applied per object, so repeatedly pinging the same target too quickly will trigger a temporary cooldown before it can be pinged again.

New

Randomized Base Order

Control matches no longer always start with Base A, then B, then C in the same order. Base order is now randomized each battle, so every game feels a little different.

New

Keyboard & Mouse Support

Consoles now support keyboard and mouse input, so you can play with your preferred setup.

New

Archive Battle Pass

We have implemented the Archive Battle Pass, allowing you to complete Battle Passes from previous seasons if these were not already completed. Season 0 is excluded.

Electro-Optical Jammers
  • FixedActivating, using, or deactivating the ability could cause noticeable performance drops.
  • FixedThe UI remained active after switching to the Echo Proxy and back, causing it to display and overlap even when the ability was only active on one of the two.
  • FixedCertain missions requiring damage dealt while Electro-Optical Jammers was active did not track progress correctly, and the same issue affecting missions requiring critical damage while Signature Masking was active.
Active Camo
  • FixedThe Active Camo UI remained active after switching to the Echo Proxy, causing it to display and overlap even when the ability was only active on one of the two.
Fixes
  • FixedThe "Sem 25-A" module's behavior did not match its description when using "Feign Death" and "Electro-Optical Jammers" together.
  • FixedThe reload animation (shell slot filling up in the loader UI) did not play for the stock ATGM autoreloader.

EMP Trap
  • NewEMP Trap's damage rules have been standardized. On a direct hit or landing on terrain, the initial explosion still deals one-time damage and applies a Slow effect to both the owner vehicle and enemies caught in it. However, any follow-up sustained AoE damage (the 5 ticks over 3-second intervals when landing on terrain) will now only affect enemies, no longer harming the owner vehicle.
  • FixedThe owner of an EMP Trap did not receive any damage or status effects after a direct hit on an enemy or an impact with the ground, when they were expected to take damage and receive the Slow status in both cases.
Active Camo
  • FixedThe description did not mention that dispersion (accuracy) worsens by x2 while the ability is active.
  • FixedThe Sniper mode vignette stopped correctly adjusting its opacity after using Active Camo on only the tank or only the Echo Proxy, causing it to remain non-translucent until affected by Active Camo on both, or by destruction.
  • FixedThe Active Camo UI would incorrectly display a high visibility level after switching to and from Echo Proxy, even while Active Camo remained active.
Fixes
  • FixedThe "MSF-53" module's description incorrectly stated it increased critical damage dealt by canister shells, when canister shells cannot deal critical hits. The Critical hit bonuses have been removed from the module description, and successful shots now apply a Slow status (50) instead.
  • FixedInstalling the "MSF-53" module caused the canister UI to overlap with the reticle.

Mission Re-balance

  • Deal 3,000 damage in 3 battles → Deal 15,000 damage in 3 battles

Other Changes & Fixes

Core Gameplay

  • FixedThe armor penetration zone indicator was incorrectly displayed on surfaces and obstacles when aiming at an enemy from behind cover.
  • FixedFire effects from certain abilities, when applied over water on various maps, either disappeared entirely or kept burning instead of correctly converting to a smoke effect.
  • FixedBeing in water on certain maps did not apply the "Wet" status, resulting in vehicles missing the expected increased Fire resistance, and removal of the "Grease" status while in water.
  • FixedThe Repair Kit correctly restored HP but incorrectly displayed a white outline on destroyed ERA (implying it would be repaired) without actually repairing it. ERA repair now properly continues until complete or until the vehicle takes damage, matching the same rules as HP recovery.
  • FixedChanging the keybind for an ability did not also update the keybind used to cancel that ability (e.g. Chopper's FV4030 X "Jamming Field").
  • FixedThe aim circle retained its progress visually after manually reloading the magazine (e.g. Twister's HSTV-L), instead of resetting to default.
  • FixedThe Rebuild Kit's health bar indicator would remain stuck at "+50" instead of updating to reflect its actual, increasing rate of HP recovery over time.
  • FixedVehicles would briefly twitch when beginning to rotate after moving backward while the Invert Reverse Steering option was enabled.
  • FixedIn the "Hardpoint" game mode, a timer under the last base marker caused the battle to end prematurely. The last base now remains active until the battle is resolved through gameplay rules.
  • FixedBlocked APHE damage was not counted correctly as "damage blocked," preventing it from triggering related effects the way other ammo types do.
  • FixedThe voice chat indicator was not displayed on the pre-battle countdown screen.
  • FixedA vehicle with an active "Extra HP" effect (e.g., from the Hull Reinforcement Kit) would not be destroyed after the death zone destruction timer ran out, allowing it to move outside the battle zone indefinitely. Death zones will now destroy vehicles regardless of active abilities, equipment, or other effects.
  • FixedA player who reconnected to a battle would see incorrect statistics in the Tab scoreboard, showing all scores and KDA reset to zero and destroyed player vehicle missing until they respawned, instead of the correct, synced statistics shown to other players.
  • FixedCritical damage text (e.g., "Crit. damage to ammo rack," Engine, or Fuel tank) was displayed fully in uppercase instead of with only the first letter capitalized.

UI & UX

  • FixedToggling the Tactical Map with TAB caused ally and enemy icons to briefly flicker to the wrong icon type in the 3D scene before displaying correctly.
  • FixedA tank's turret could sometimes spin rapidly if the vehicle was destroyed from fall damage.
  • FixedIn Control mode, a Bombing event icon briefly appeared on the base marker after capturing the base.
  • FixedIn Conquest mode, a base ping could not be canceled within the first 2 seconds, and multiple base pings from the same player could exist simultaneously instead of being limited to one at a time.
  • FixedDamage indicators could overlap and display incorrect multipliers (e.g. "x2") when dealing repeated critical hits to the same module in quick succession.
  • FixedIn Control mode, the player count widget did not appear while contesting a base in the "Overtime" and "Contested" states.
  • FixedThe Destroyed and Squad icons on the Scoreboard would appear stacked in a column instead of aligned in a row.
  • FixedThe welcome screen would only appear once per account, causing update information to be missed after subsequent server deployments. The welcome screen will now correctly appear on the first login following each new update.
  • FixedBase and vehicle markers would overlap with in-battle splash messages, including positive, neutral, and negative messages, as well as messages about agent skill activations.
  • FixedIn "Control" mode, a vehicle destroyed at the exact moment of a base capture or round transition would fail to respawn for the rest of the battle.
  • FixedA skull icon was displayed in the Squad HUD when a Squad member was destroyed, instead of the intended cross icon.
  • FixedThe missions UI would overlap with the scoreboard UI when viewing the scoreboard.
  • FixedCertain missions were not displayed in the hangar or in battle.

VFX & SFX

  • FixedVehicles did not leave track marks when driving over stone or metal surfaces.
  • FixedVisual effects for firing, ability usage, and driving through water did not appear.
  • FixedA scorch mark did not appear on the ground beneath a destroyed vehicle.
  • FixedDestroyed props, such as fuel barrels, would sometimes flicker or disappear during camera rotation.
  • FixedOn the "Eden" map, vehicles did not leave track marks on sandy terrain.

Tech

  • FixedAccepting a squad invite between PC and PS5 could cause the PC client's UI to become unresponsive.
  • FixedA vehicle's turret would unexpectedly rotate while the Tactical Map was open, if the vehicle was moving and the camera was facing down when the map was opened.

Maps & Level Design

  • FixedM1E1's ultimate targeting could collide with rooftops on certain maps (such as the Aircraft Carrier map), making it unclear where the ability would be applied.
  • FixedOn the "Aircraft Carrier" map (Control game mode), some rooftops incorrectly disappeared while using Tactical View.
  • FixedOn the "Aircraft Carrier" map, vehicles could get stuck in the ramp support arms.
  • FixedIn the Firing Range, certain dry areas incorrectly had water effects applied to them, causing fire abilities (e.g. T-62's "Pyro-Trail") used there to convert into smoke as if placed on water.
  • FixedIn Control mode, vehicles could spawn outside of the playable area after redeploying.
  • FixedOn the "Project Phoenix" map, grass could be seen growing out of a wall.

Shop & Battle Pass

  • FixedIn the Store, the vehicle skin counter, in the "Bundle Includes" section, displayed a duplicated count instead of correctly summing all skin types (3D skin, 2D skin, paint) within a bundle.
  • FixedThe next Battle Pass reward could sometimes not be claimed, and the previously claimed reward would appear missing. Reconnecting resolved the issue temporarily.

Localizations

  • FixedIn the Polish localization, the Scoreboard's "Destructions" and "Assists" columns were swapped, with destruction counts appearing under the "A" (Assists) label instead of "Ś" (Destructions).
  • FixedIn the German localization, Fuzzer's Marder 1A3 "Suppression Strike" ability description contained a misspelled word ("Effekladungen" instead of "Effektladungen").
  • FixedOn the Welcome screen, the Russian localization displayed an extra comma.
  • FixedKent's "Shell Velocity Mode" and "Combat Blur System" skill titles did not fit properly in the German localization.
  • FixedThe firing mode description for Kent's XM1 90 did not fit properly in the vehicle rotation widget on the "Deployment" screen in French localization.
  • FixedIn the "Plant/Defuse" game mode, the text on the "Hold to pick up bomb," "Hold to plant the bomb," and "Hold to defuse bomb" widgets did not fit properly in the ES, FR, PL, PT_BR, RU, UK, and DE localizations.

Consoles

New on Console

  • PSSR 2 Support for PS5 Pro. Improved image quality on PS5 Pro for sharper visuals and enhanced detail, along with a performance boost in certain scenarios.
  • Intel XeSS 3 integration. Intel XeSS has been upgraded to version 3, delivering improved image quality and greater visual stability compared to the previous version.
  • Added Keyboard and Mouse support for consoles.
  • For Xbox, free DLCs from a Game Pass subscription are now invoiced automatically to players' accounts.

Console & Controller Bug Fixes

  • FixedIt was not possible to hover over vehicle armor using a gamepad on the "Armor Inspector" screen, including on Xbox and PS5.
  • FixedOn Steam Deck, an unwanted warning message appeared on first launch, could only be dismissed via touchscreen or mouse (not Steam Deck buttons), and did not properly block interaction with the login screen behind it.
  • FixedOn Steam Deck, the Battle Pass reward level info showed a misaligned lock icon and title, along with truncated text.
  • FixedOn Xbox, changes made to the Dynamic Camera Effect setting on an Xbox Series X did not carry over when logging into the same account on an Xbox Series S.
  • FixedOn PS5, some art assets, such as fences on the "Scarred City" map, could flicker
  • FixedOn Xbox/PS, if a player blocked or muted a squadmate through the console's system-level settings, the affected squadmate would see the "Mute" and "Mute Squad" buttons as enabled but unresponsive, along with an incorrect "Unmute" hint in the HUD, instead of those controls being properly disabled.
  • FixedSystem achievement progress did not update correctly when switching to a different account without relaunching the app.
  • FixedOn PS5, being near Twister's Lights Out Ultimate could cause freezes or FPS drops.
  • FixedOn PS5 and Xbox, the System Information setting would incorrectly appear on the Video settings tab.
  • FixedOn gamepad, occurring only with Invert Reverse Steering enabled, smoothly moving the stick from forward to backward could cause the vehicle to briefly steer in the wrong direction before continuing into reverse.
  • FixedSquad member numbering was not synced between the hangar and the battle, causing Squad members to be misnumbered.
  • FixedThe game could crash when a PS5 player left or was kicked from a squad.
  • FixedOn PS5, a player who had previously blocked and then unblocked a squadmate could still see them appear muted after rejoining the squad, even though the mute could be manually cleared through the in-game UI.
