World of Tanks' 10th Anniversary: Join the Celebrations!

The closing Act of our 10th Anniversary is here, Commanders!

The 10th Anniversary celebration of World of Tanks is reaching its grand finale with Act V: New Horizons kicking off on August 17. It features a special, once-in-a-lifetime Birthday Present. We’ll be giving away seven Premium vehicles to all players as a token of our sincere gratitude and appreciation. Plus, you’ll have the opportunity to earn an eighth Premium vehicle—the speedy A46 British light tank! And of course, you’ll have a chance to score the latest Act V anniversary customizations.

How It Works: Acts, Active Phases & Anniversary Missions

To get access to the activities of the 10th Anniversary, click on the banner in the lower-right corner in your Garage.

World of Tanks’ 10th anniversary consists of five (5) thematic Acts, each of them corresponds to certain milestones of the game that left their mark in the hearts of players. Each Act tells us of the history of our project and its legacy, broken into two-year sections. Veterans will smile and remember the early days, and novices will be surprised to learn some curious facts about our game.

Acts, in turn, will consist of an Active Phase and a Breather.

• The Active Phase runs for one (1) week, during which you can take part in special Time Warps (more on them below).
• After completion of an Active Phase, a Breather kicks off. It lasts approximately 20 days, depending on the specific Act.

During both Active Phases and Breathers, you can fulfil Anniversary Missions in Random Battles (including Grand Battles). During the Active Phase, you will have access to a set of 9 missions, divided into 3 consecutive blocks (3 missions each) each of increasing difficulty.

Completing each of these missions will reward you with special game currency, Anniversary Coins. You’ll get more Coins for completing harder missions. After completing the entire set, you’ll unlock an additional daily mission.

During a Breather, you can complete one simple Anniversary Mission in Random Battles (including Grand Battles) once per day and get Anniversary Coins as a reward. Exchange them for valuable items and exclusive customizations in the special in-game Anniversary Store (more on this below).

Redeem Your Rewards!

After earning three (3) Gold Keys, you can get your hands on the mind-blowing 3D Style for the T30, the legendary American Tier IX tank destroyer. World of Tanks veterans may remember that in the very early days of the game, it was a top heavy tank. Over the years, it has changed its vehicle class, but the Т30 still remains a redoubtable adversary on the battlefield. Complete Anniversary Missions, get 3 Gold Keys and outfit this mighty tank destroyer, if you own it, with a truly exclusive custom look! If you don't have the iconic T30 in your Garage yet, this is a great occasion to research it.

In addition to the 3D Style for the T30, you also have a chance to earn:

Anniversary Store

You can exchange Anniversary Coins earned for completing missions in the Active Phase and Breathers in the Anniversary Store. It will be available in a special section of the in-game shop throughout all five Acts — here's where you can find it.

The Anniversary Store has three (3) tabs offering the following:

• Anniversary Gold bundles, supplemented with Anniversary Coins. You can choose one of three packages containing 5,000, 8,750 or 12,500 Gold and 100, 200, and 300 Anniversary Coins. Their value in real money will be the same as if you bought this amount of gold in the Premium Shop. But in addition to Gold, in each Anniversary bundle you will receive a number of Anniversary Coins for free.
• Unique customizations, carefully holding the memories of the past. Each emblem, decal or other item in this section is unique and a real collector's gem. You can purchase the contents of this section for Anniversary Coins. For each Act, new exclusive goodies will be added to this section, including some that have never been offered for sale before. Check them out.

• Bundles containing legendary vehicles and unique 2D styles. During each Act, a different selection of iconic vehicles, each with its own exclusive custom look, will be up for grabs. Act V will feature the Lorraine 40 t and the T78. In addition to the personal style for each tank, these bundles will include an additional all-season custom look, made up of fragments of World of Tanks mini-maps relevant to a specific Act.

• Useful battle supplies, including Consumables, Directives, Personal Reserves, and more.

Take Part in Time Warps!

For each of the five Acts, we will launch special Time Warps. These are engaging and unexpected activities for the tank community, related to something significant from the history of World of Tanks of a certain period. Take a trip down memory lane and reminisce about the early days of our game!

Time Warps will only take place during Active Phases. Act V: New Horizons features a special Birthday Present. From August 17 through October 12, just log in to World of Tanks where you’ll see a congratulatory message along with your personal lifetime game statistics, which were previously inaccessible for you. You’ll also find seven unique vehicles in your Garage, six of which were previously handed out for earlier birthdays. 

During Act V, from Monday, August 17 at 04:00 PT | 06:00 CT | 07:00 ET until Monday, October 12 at 04:20 PT | 06:20 CT | 07:20 ET, you can get your hands on the eighth gift tank, the A46. To grab this maneuverable marauder, enter Random Battles and complete special missions in any of the seven Birthday Present vehicles. More details are in the dedicated article.
