'World Of Tanks' Commemorates 80th Anniversary of VE Day with Exclusive PvE Mission, Historic Livestream from the Tank Museum And More

by Rainier on May 6, 2025 @ 1:56 a.m. PDT

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.


World of Tanks is honouring the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II in Europe with a content-rich tribute event that spans a thrilling new PvE mode, a historic livestream from the Tank Museum hosted by renowned tank experts, exclusive Twitch Drops, in-game discounts, and more.

From May 6th to May 13th, players will step into the boots of an elite Allied tank commander in the thrilling new PvE mission, Operation Postman. Set in the tense final days of World War II, the objective is clear but dangerous: deliver a message behind enemy lines to inform Allied troops that the war is over. Players will enter combat in a uniquely camouflaged M24 Chaffee, supported by an international tank crew equipped with special tactical abilities such as “Scout Around” to recon enemy positions and “False Order” to mislead German patrols. Dense minefields block all approaches to the castle, prompting players to explore the enemy base, locate command posts, and search for maps that reveal a safe route. Once tankers complete challenges, trusty Chaffee will stay with their tank collection permanently.

On May 10th at 15:00 UTC, Wargaming and The Tank Museum in Bovington, UK will present a special livestream commemorating VE Day. It will be hosted by World of Tanks Head of Military Relations and Tank Regiment Veteran Richard Cutland, and Head of Marketing and Engagement at The Tank Museum, Nik Wyness. Join them and some very special guests as they delve onto the significance of VE Day, the key stages of WWII and the evolution of armour throughout this period. Viewers can also expect valuable Mystery Drops on Twitch throughout the stream and a chance to win premium vehicles and more.

Between May 8th 9:00am and May 12th 9:00am UTC, tankers can also earn x5 XP multipliers for the first victory of the day, along with gold discounts on Premium vehicles, and credit discounts on researchable vehicles, consumables, and equipment.

World Of Tanks is available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
