In World Of Tanks player teams are fighting action-packed PvP battles, featuring more than 150 armored fighting vehicles from the pre-WW2 era up to the Korean War.

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.

The World of Tanks 2015 Grand Finals event is part of the Wargaming.net League eSports division for competitive players, and will be held April 25–26 at EXPO XXI in Warsaw, Poland. Over two intense days, the top 12 World of Tanks teams will battle it out on an international stage competing for the right to be named World Champion and take home their share of the total $300K prize pool.

This Grand Finals event marks the continuation of the new and revamped tournament format Attack/Defense mode. The new mode setup and rules have been developed with the help of pro gamers to enhance and streamline battles, making matches even more thrilling for players and spectators. With no chance of a draw, opponents must take the initiative and go all out if they want to be crowned victorious.

The event will be free to the public, with a variety of prizes and exclusive giveaways for the most passionate spectators. In addition to watching the action unfold on the battlefield, players and fans alike will enjoy various forms of entertainment including World of Tanks Blitz competitions at the Red Bull stand, quizzes at paysafeguard to test fan’s tank knowledge and team competitions for up to 14 players at the MGT-20. All these activities can be found at the partners’ area during match intermissions. The event will also feature two real tanks, a T-34/85 and M4AI Sherman, courtesy of the Polish Military Museum in Warsaw. These legendary vehicles have been refurbished by Wargaming for guests to learn about their history.

The list of finalists will be announced during the seeding ceremony on April 2 at 19:00 CET. The ceremony will be broadcast in English on the WGLEU official Twitch channel.
