[h2]Play Your Way: Steam for Everyone[/h2]

Starting from March 6, World of Tanks gives you total freedom to play on your terms. Whether you're a long-time player or just getting started, you can now seamlessly switch between platforms—play on Steam or through the Wargaming Game Center (WGC) with the same account. Your progress and all in-game belongings stay with you wherever you play.

Already playing via Steam? Great news! If you’ve been playing World of Tanks on Steam before, you’ll receive an exclusive veteran reward:

• The “Steam Veteran” badge
  
• 3 “eSTEAMed Player” projection decals
  

For those with an old WGC-associated account, you can now take advantage of the Steam experience too!

As our special reward to mark this occasion, all players—whether on Steam or the Wargaming Game Center—will have the opportunity to earn the FCM 2C Tier III Premium French heavy tank and the new "Steamroller" 2D style by completing a special mission.
