World Of Tanks is a team-based massively multiplayer online action game dedicated to armored warfare. Throw yourself into the epic tank battles of World War II with other steel cowboys all over the world. Your arsenal includes more than 150 armored vehicles from America, Germany, and the Soviet Union, carefully detailed with historical accuracy.

Ride the legendary Tiger tank, or choose the fast-and-furious Soviet T-34, practice your sharp-shooting skills with the American 155mm M40 Gun Motor Carriage or try experimental/prototype machines such as the Germany's monstrous Maus tank. A Player can have an endless number of tanks in "garage", and all machines can be upgraded in dozens of ways: better turrets, chassis, guns, engines, radios, various ammunition types, plus tank crew members can be leveled up as well.

World of Tanks has spoken to their players and taken on board their request and now they are rolling out Update 9.20 with player influenced content. Grand Battles 30-vs-30 mode and following an exciting 1st Season of Ranked Battles, 2nd Beta Season is about to begin.

Bigger battles and more tanks. Two things players have been wanting for a while, and Grand Battles delivers both: 30–vs-30 on a huge new map, Nebelburg, measuring 1.4 km by 1.4 km. This exciting new mode is the domain of Tier X tanks only, which means the spoils of war that come with the territory increases. It's also where players can earn Bonds, a new in-game currency that can be spent on Directives or Improved Equipment to supercharge their experience.

“Bringing World of Tanks battles to a whole new level is a really exciting step for us,” said Max Chuvalov, World of Tanks Marketing Director. “We received some invaluable player feedback during our tests and are now ready to share the new mode with the community. We’re positive Grand Battles will offer an absolutely fresh experience for our players.”

After a thrilling 1st Beta Season and great player feedback, the Ranked Battles 2nd Beta Season will be deploying in September, following the release of 9.20. A chance for the best of the best to prove their worth on the battlefield, newcomers and veterans of the first season alike will find climbing the ranks a much more rewarding and streamlined experience.

Update 9.20 also unleashes a full branch of Chinese tank destroyers featuring nine vehicles. They boast great view ranges to take out targets from afar and high camouflage values to keep them hidden. Older vehicles haven’t been forgotten either: a number of vehicles from Japan, France, the USA, and the USSR have been brought up to speed with the game of today.
