What to expect from World of Tanks HEAT

World of Tanks HEAT is not just a modern alternative to the OG experience, but it entirely changes the gameplay. It’s a free-to-play title that incentivizes you to find the best combination between Agents and Tanks. You need to use the hi-tech weaponry and modern rides to master 5v5 skirmishes or 10v10 clashes.

To win, you have to communicate and adapt with your teammates. No two fights will be the same, and it’s up to you and your skills. Every Agent has unique abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. Similarly, no two tanks are the same, and you can further upgrade them. There’s no right or wrong when it comes to using a vehicle of your liking; it’s up to you and what you can manage with your tank.

World of Tanks HEAT is set in an alternate post-WW-II timeline where science has triumphed. You get to enjoy armored monsters that have been adapted from real-life concepts. The game also features crossplay and crossprogression, and you need a single account to enjoy the shared progression.
