March 23, 2021 — Next month, World of Tanks Blitz is heading for a new frontier: outer space. Throughout April, all activities have a cosmic flavor, including several in-game events, the return of Burning Games and the Gravity Force mode, as well as a dedicated Battle Pass — Operation Red Planet — starring a new Explorer tank!
As a first salvo, to begin the “cosmic” month, World of Tanks Blitz launched a model of the mentioned tank into the stratosphere. This 1:32 size replica of the modified Tier VI Cromwell B medium tank sprung into the air at a speed of up to 15m/sec, hovered 24 km above Earth, landed successfully and is now ready to crown the special rewards of the action-packed Operation Red Planet!
In addition to the new Operation, that will be running from April 1 to 30, tankers should strap in for a shower of cosmic activities:
- First comes the Galaxy Riches event granting players an outstanding chance to get unique in-game items that can be exchanged for certain resources, such as credits, boosters and certificates for Premium Account days. The event will take place from March 26 until April 5.
- Next follows a week of Burning Games. Running from March 31 to April 4, the event will be loaded with tons of fun to indulge yourself into as usual.
- The Sheridan Rocket event will burst into the game on April 9 and will stay till April 16, allowing those players who haven’t acquired the Sheridan Missile tank with the unique ATGM mechanics yet, to enjoy operating this vehicle!
- Last but not least, the game will see the long-awaited return of the Gravity Force mode. Available from April 12 to April 18, it will introduce a new ability that allows tanks to jump up and operate in the air.
And finally, tonight at 9 PM (UTC+3), there will be a special stream with the developers that will detail even more about the cosmic activities coming next month to World of Tanks Blitz.
