'World Of Tanks' Adding Vikings TV Series Inspired Battle Pass With Characters, New Tier IX Tank And Skins Later This Week - Trailer

by Rainier on Nov. 5, 2024 @ 9:15 a.m. PST

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.


As the crows of Odin soar, the clash of steel and the sound of battle fill the air. The time has come! Starting on November 7, Battle Pass Special: Vikings invites players to embark on an epic journey inspired by the popular Vikings TV series. For two weeks, players will unleash their inner Viking as they conquer, shoulder to shoulder with iconic characters, to claim the ultimate prize—a Viking war chariot, the Felice Tier IX Premium tank.

Tank commanders will be able to recruit Ragnar Lothbrok, Bjorn Ironside, and Ivar the Boneless—legendary figures portrayed in Vikings—and hear them speak words of courage and wisdom. These fearsome warriors bring their cunning and strength to the battlefield as Basic Rewards in the Battle Pass. For those seeking to complete their Viking raiding party, additional commanders, Lagertha and Floki, will be available for purchase in the in-game store. Together, they form the ultimate Vikings squad, ready to join the raiding party and lead tanks to victory.

Forty stages of rewards await in the Battle Pass Special: Vikings, unlocking the ultimate Viking treasure —the Felice tank coated in exclusive “Westward Bound” 3D style. This design draws inspiration from early medieval Scandinavian culture and incorporates recognizable elements from Vikings. The tank is layered with Viking shields, inspired by the series, on its support rollers and side screens, while Ragnar Lothbrok’s axe and a Carolingian sword evoke the power of the Viking warriors. Other elements that help solidify the tank as a symbol of dominance, include Ragnar Lothbrok’s flag, and a Viking compass that helps players find their way. As a final touch, a lone and vigilant raven flies above the tank, symbolizing Odin's watchful eye over the battlefield.

In addition to the Felice tank and its incredible 3D style, the Battle Pass also features a selection of 2D styles that will allow players to customize their tanks with unique Vikings-inspired designs. One style pays tribute to the fierce and courageous Lagertha by replicating her iconic shield, another is designed as a set of mystical stone runes, and finally, the Spawn of Jormungandr style showcases the intricate decorative patterns found on weapons seen in the Vikings, embodying the craftsmanship of a true warrior.

World Of Tanks is available for PS4, Xbox One and PC.
