Summer has arrived in World of Tanks and several events are planned for everyone to enjoy. From July to August, players can experience a total of five events.
Let's start with July and the arrival of a new Global Map event which is the Iron Age. That means it's time once again for the powerful clans to fight and show who's the boss while earning rewards like the Tier X vehicles. Later this week, the game is celebrating the historic moment when man first landed on the moon; there will be in-game missions along with space-themed rewards.
When August rolls in, World of Tanks is going to celebrate its 12th anniversary. To get all Commanders in a festive mood, there will be a beach party, gifts, and exciting adventures. In the same month, players can expect to see the second launch of Frontline 2022. This epic mode continues with the main principles present in the first launch. However, to make things more exciting, the progression system has been adjusted while some of the balance parameters were changed. Of course, more rewards have been added.
Players can also look forward to the release of the Battle Pass Season VIII, which comes with valuable Base and Improved Rewards. These include the unique Warhammer 40,000-themed 3D styles.
