Battle Pass: Second Season of 2025

[MajorMcDonalds]

We’re getting close to the start of the next season! On February 26th, the new Battle Pass season will begin, but today we’ll show you the new rewards that you can look forward to!

Main rewards of the season

Hino rifle (BR III, Japan)

One of the variants of Kumazo Hino’s rifle design with its original blow forward action: a moving barrel and a fixed breechblock.

The magazine holds 15 rounds of 6.5mm caliber cartridges - it deals 13.9 damage per shot with a 280 rounds per minute rate of fire. It also comes with a bayonet.

In the Elite Battle Pass, you will also find aircraft for Japan and Germany with unique camouflages - Ki-61 II Otsu Kai and Bf 109 K-4!

In this Battle Pass, you will receive vehicles that can be assigned to their respective Fighter pilot squads.

And of course unique soldiers for the USSR and the USA:

Nikolai Kabalin - Assaulter III (USSR)

John Baskeyfield - AT Gunner II (USA, British) — requires Elite BP

As a reminder, Elite BP owners receive four unique weapons, two unique soldiers and two vehicles with unique camouflages by progressing in the Battle Pass. Meanwhile, players with basic BP receive one weapon and one unique soldier of the season.

Hino rifle

Another glorious SA rifle that TT Japan could have used well.

[Comet92220]

Wasn’t that rifle supposed to be BR 3 ?

[Valkay]

@MajorMcDonalds

Elite Battle Pass, you will also find Bf 109 K-4!

Deja Vu

@BorderBandit28

Please tell me its not censored and the original had red strips too.

I guess devs were too lazy to add camo options for planes.

[GasMasters]

@MajorMcDonalds

Ki-61 II Otsu Kai

Looks good, but it should be BR3

@MajorMcDonalds

Hino rifle

I was told that the Devs have noted the fictional components of the Hino rifle.

Still, here’s some detail you may want to know about it.

The Hino-Komuro M1904(日野式自動小銃) we know is a fake gun

Remember this? I did some research on it today. [98b3335b-7039-4fd9-8dd5-268c8b0ba2da] Photos of the Hino-Komuro rifle currently circulating on the Internet look like they were taken in the 1990s or 2000s. The background of the photo looks like it’s in someone’s home, not warehouse or museum. [7a15050f-2bef-422b-8bc2-b3862986fbcb] [477475_900] The rifle in photos looks pretty crude, and there are only two photos. No old black-and-white photos, which is very unusual for a 100+ year old rifl…

@MajorMcDonalds

Ki-61 II Otsu Kai

I really like this skin.

[Yuri_Enjoyer]

Wow, this is completely meaningless to me. A weak self loading rifle that should be BR3 and two GO soldiers that I will never need.

[UJustCumsToMe]

Any news about further BP weapons after this one?

[Valkay]

@MajorMcDonalds

Hino rifle (BR IV, Japan)

How is this BR4?

Chinese gun is BR2 with 15.3 damage and this trash only has 13.9 damage.
French 15 round Meunier carbine is just BR3 with 14.4 damage.
Hell even US Winchester M1907 with 20 rounds is just BR3.

EDIT!!!

@MajorMcDonalds

we have been collecting feedback from players across many platforms about possible BR adjustments recently.

Guys, there will probably be huge BR changes in which the Hino will be reasonable for BR4 probably because the weapons I mentioned will be moved up with a BR.

[Suicideplume]

Is James ok? Is he ill?
I think this topic is relevant.

[Valkay]

@UJustCumsToMe

Any news about further BP

Next faction will be European Axis so I will bet on MG08/15.

[ErikaKalkbrenner]

well, at least those are not skins, but actual vehicles.

although still:

Change the new bp concept of camouflage into a tank camouflage order

i still stand to my previous suggestion: but since it’s not in the new “format” ( where you have to make suggestion about one thing opposed as one list ), effe it. i’ll try again except one thing at a time. so, the new skins from the bp can be considered quite the failure. ( at least, imo. but with basic logic: ) you can’t choose jack nothing it’s no longer a vehicle newer players won’t do much with these as they will most likely lack the base vehicle to begin with. so, here is…

and speaking of gold orders vehicles. fix them already:

Bring back the ability to change camouflage on gold orders

since the Rzhev update, we lost the ability to change camouflages while keeping the markings and insignas of vehicles. for example; [Enlisted Screenshot 2023.05.20 - 15.31.40.01] [ff8df1445f99092c4e544e9cc3942361b90f99b1_2_1500x1122] ( courtesy of @Man_Bear_Pig ) [3d61053ea95c9b725d83e4884572eb36f05d03a0_2_1500x1071] [1af79d0b0496e17ca6459c855a92597e6a4867f0_2_1500x952] [6cbe43beff9de0a3ee3e5fc173db9b2f37233083_2_1498x985] [b225845bbcf62163c96d1456c9e8e530db314708_2_1500x927] [5a63f8…

with that being said,

[木石]

BR4? Don’t make me laugh!

[Φ_Sarabamjoei_Φ]

Any changes on repeatable rewards to flavoring it up?

[NonNational]

It is better than the Type 4 rifle, which is the BR4.

[Valkay]

@ErikaKalkbrenner

at least those are not skins

Wait what

@MajorMcDonalds

you will receive vehicles that can be assigned to their respective Fighter pilot squads.

Indeed they are vehicles!
Damn now I can have 2 109 K-4s.

[EVA_Berlinoid]

Is the Hino at BR4 a mistake??

[CaptainSebekel]

@ErikaKalkbrenner

well, at least those are not skins, but actual vehicles.

You really thought they gonna release camo options for planes?
