Built on Wargaming’s new proprietary engine, World Of Tanks: Heat brings the franchise’s tactical tank combat into faster, more dynamic, and explosive grounds.

In an alternate timeline shaped by rapid scientific progress and global cooperation, humanity’s technological marvels – once symbols of hope – have become strategic flashpoints in an escalating worldwide conflict. 

Players operate a roster of experimental vehicles — each with unique abilities, deep customization, and powers to dominate the battle. Tanks can be outfitted with advanced weapon systems, armor modules, visual upgrades, and battlefield-altering abilities. As elite Agents — specially trained to pilot these mighty war machines — players will shape every vehicle to match their playstyle.

Climb the leaderboards, expand your roster, evolve your tanks and dominate the battlefield with HEAT. 

“World Of Tanks: Heat is our bold vision for the franchise, delivering an entirely new tank experience with a fresh setting, new gameplay mechanics, faster pace, and cutting-edge tech,” said Victor Kislyi, CEO of Wargaming. “Inheriting the renowned World Of Tanks DNA, the game lets players enjoy tank warfare like never before, battling in ways we once only could imagine.”

“Today’s announcement is an important milestone for our team, reflecting all the hard work and creativity we've invested in the project,”, said Artyom Yantsevich, World Of Tanks: Heat Product Director. “We are looking forward to working closely with players to shape HEAT’s future and we’re excited to present the game for the first time at gamescom."
