Introducing the VK 75.01 (K)!

Gamescom starts on August 21 in Cologne, Germany. As past events unveiled the Primo Victoria and T26E3 Eagle 7 medium tanks (among others), this year we follow suit with the introduction of something, um, weightier.

The new German VK 75.01 (K) Tier VIII heavy tank has something most its peers shy away from: A rear-mounted turret. It has a play style similar to the VK 45.02 (P) Ausf. B and Pz.Kpfw. VII at Tier IX and X, respectively. The vehicle packs a Tier IX cannon that delivers 490 alpha damage and 226 mm of penetration (like the one that made the E 75 famous...and feared).

Use its firepower in conjunction with an excellent view range, large HP pool, and strong frontal armor to push forward and close the distance between you and your enemies or lurk around corners with your rear turret. Choose your tactics!

Don’t forget: As a Tier VIII vehicle, the VK 75.01 (K) is eligible for Frontline — Episode 7 runs until Monday, August 26!
