Wargaming announced plans to provide more than 1,000 hours of quality live and on-demand video content on Facebook Live to build its community and reach millions of gamers worldwide.

Available globally across Wargaming’s Facebook Pages, players and fans will be able to check out live game streams, learn about new product features, access historical content related to gameplay, and watch and participate in interviews with popular streamers. Wargaming will also release coverage of its esports events, including a livestream of the World of Tanks regional and final tournaments.

“Bringing exciting and uniquely-created live video content to Facebook was an obvious step for us,” said Jamy Nigri, Senior Vice President of Commercial Development for Wargaming. “We’ll be introducing new ways to interact with our games to our 3.9 million Facebook community members and gamers across the globe. Player happiness is at our core, and we can’t wait to let fans engage through Facebook.”

“Wargaming is already an incredibly progressive creator of video content on Facebook, and we’re excited to work even more closely with their team,” said Bob Slinn, head of games partnerships, EMEA, for Facebook.“Team-based MMOs like World of Tanks, World of Warplanes and World of Warships make up some of the most popular gaming communities on Facebook, and we’re looking forward to all the creative ways in which Wargaming will bring fans closer to the games they love.”
