Greetings, Arms Dealers!
Development on Arms Trade Tycoon: Tanks continues, and today's update brings several new additions across gameplay, modding, and performance. Here's a full breakdown of what's new.
In-Game Newspaper
This update introduces an annual in-game newspaper. It compiles your player stats, financial performance, and worldwide country statistics into a single summary at the end of each in-game year.
The newspaper gives you a clearer picture of how your arms empire is performing and how it stacks up against the global market. It's a useful tool for planning your next moves and tracking long-term progress.
Mod Support: Admin and Camo Mods
We've expanded mod support with two new mod types now available to the community.
Admin Mods give modders access to administrative tools and broader control over game systems. Camo Mods allow custom camouflage patterns to be applied to vehicles in-game.
Both additions build on our commitment to making Arms Trade Tycoon: Tanks an open and moddable experience. More mod types and expanded tools are planned as development continues.
Mod Creation App
We've released a standalone mod creation app, free and available to everyone. It gives modders a dedicated environment to build and test content outside of the main game.

(app will be linked here when it goes live)
Performance Improvements
We've removed most 3D scenes from the game to improve overall performance. Players on a wider range of hardware configurations should notice smoother gameplay as a result.
Looking Ahead
Arms Trade Tycoon: Tanks remains in Early Access, with a steady focus on meaningful content additions and progress toward the 1.0 release. Your feedback continues to shape the direction of development, and we appreciate your ongoing support.
