World of Tanks Blitz is a free-to-play team-based MMO action game dedicated to fierce tank combat.

Drawing inspiration from World of Tanks, it introduces cross-platform tank combat for a variety of smartphones and tablets. With a roster of over 190 iconic armored vehicles, stunning graphics, intuitive touch-screen controls for tablets and phones, World of Tanks Blitz makes it easy to jump into short, action-packed 7vs7 tank battles no matter where you are.

The unified Wargaming.net ID allow switching between platforms and devices while retaining in-game progress, while cross-platform support lets World of Tanks Blitz community play together on a single server.

Designed to take advantage of cross-device gameplay functionality, this new version of the smash hit mobile game will bring 7-vs-7 tank combat to Windows 10 mobile devices, tablets and PCs.

A variety of in-game interfaces and elements will also be reworked in World of Tanks Blitz on Windows 10 to ensure a true cross-play experience. Along with intuitive touch-screen controls for tablets and phones, World of Tanks Blitz is set to feature keyboard and mouse support for PC.

With the holidays fast approaching World of Tanks Blitz is getting their players in the mood with a visit to the festive workshop of Chris Dev, which has something for everyone. The man behind the event has created a 15-stage challenge, which features a mountain of great rewards including a grand prize: the Tier X VK 90.01 (P) and a special camo just for this behemoth.

On the way to this German heavy, tankers will be able to get their hands on the Pz. V/IV, a German medium tank, and a special in-game currency which can be used to shake a mysterious snow globe. On top of all this, every day players can grab three different chests off Chris, which are full to the brim with a selection of goodies including Premium, Credits, Camos and more.

Tankers can maximize their festive yield by playing a satellite browser game that Chris himself has developed. Find the way out of an 8-bit labyrinth, collect up to 21 chests and other valuable in-game items, and pass all the challenges to receive a special festive avatar.

While the 15-stage challenge is for those who have Tier V or higher vehicles, every player will get something special for the holidays. After all, it’s a time for giving. Our resident Santa Claus, Chris, has prepared a festive stocking for everyone whether they’ve been naughty or nice. Every tanker who logs in between December 23, 2019 and January 12, 2020 will get the BT-SV, a shiny Tier III Soviet light tank, a garage slot to house it, a unique New Year’s camo, 200,020 credits and 2 certificates for a day of Premium.

World of Tanks Blitz offers a roster of over 190 iconic vehicles from Germany, Great Britain, the United States, and the USSR that are divided into 4 different classes: light tanks, medium tanks, heavy tanks, and tank destroyers. Each class has its own set of strengths and weaknesses, giving a unique playing style to every model. Combined with a variety of battle arenas featuring rapid, action-packed, PvP combat, World of Tanks Blitz allows aspiring tankers to master their tactical skills, learn to take fast and calculated decisions on the battlefield, and team up in platoons with friends all across the world.

World of Tanks Blitz is optimized for a variety of Windows 10 devices, enabling players to fight together on the same servers regardless of the platform — iOS, Android or Windows 10. Windows 10 PC players will have a separate matchmaking queue from mobile gamers, ensuring they have an equal chance of victory.
