    I've been waiting for Xbox version for ages. War Thunder was the only game I kept playing on my **** PC after I bought Xbox One. Now I can finally give the laptop to my grandma and play WT on console. The game is pretty much the same as on PC, free access to naval CBT for Xbox players is really nice. I would even give it 10/10, but -2 for the lack of flight joystick support, I miss it inI've been waiting for Xbox version for ages.

    There is a mass of gameplay here, and many war machines to play with. It is still in early access on xbox, but War Thunder has already left its mark on other platforms.A ridiculously high number of tanks, planes and now ships are available to us. Great game with with some xbox platform specific glitches that are quickly being ironed out.

    After all this time one of the best military mmo hit the Xbox. If you love war machines, you need to check it for sure! Aircraft, tank and navy in one game. Arcade and Realistic game modes, plenty of vehicles and detailed maps. "War never been so much fun"!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a great game for anyone who likes war history, tanks, planes and, ships. I really enjoy the tank battles and for anyone that is comparing this to WOT, I feel like this is more interesting than WOT cuz of the realistic battles and simulation. Expand

    An absolute blast, in my humble opinion. Aircraft, ground vehicles, and naval forces, in ultimate battles. So much fun!

    Glad to finally see the most immersive online war sim on Xbox. I rate it 9/10 cuz its too addictive and I don't want to go outside anymore. Such an incredible opportunity to play naval forces, tanks, aircraft and helicopters in one game fore free.

    As a free to play game it has its flaws, but the fun and realism make it the best of its kind. Nothing to envy to wot which is quite bad in my opinion. Don't pay attention to the comments of here, They do not know how to value a good Simulator

    Overall a good game only lacking the ability to bind all functions necessary for the game to a controller. Well handled pay to progress system.

    The game is impressive in terms of content and realism and fun, with a lot of historical vehicles to drive from air to the grounds and seas. It’s a good free to play, if you’re willing to spend a lot of time grinding the broad content.

    War Thunder arrives at Xbox One X with 4k and the new mouse and keyboard compatibility to make the best War Thunder on consoles yet.

    The menu, currency confusion, being outclassed by pay-to-win players and lack of help is very off-putting in the beginning, but it does start to make sense if you can devote the time to learn it and stick with it. It’s not going to be for everyone, and I’d still wager it’s more catered towards the hardcore crowd, or those with disposable income, but War Thunder can be a deep and exciting game in the heat of battle. Once it’s free to play and out of Early Access, there’s no harm in giving it a shot, like your tank cannon.
