[h2]Battle Pass: Season VII Is Coming![/h2]

In early March, the seventh Season of Battle Pass kicks off. It will run for almost three months and introduces several important changes.

The new Season will consist of three main Chapters, but now you can complete them in any order. You can also pause the completion of a Chapter and switch to a different one to grab the rewards you need the most.

This is the opening Season of 2022 and the first of the year in which you can earn Battle Pass Tokens—a special in-game currency. They will accumulate throughout the year in all Seasons of Battle Pass in which you participate in 2022. Use Battle Pass Tokens to redeem cool Tier IX reward vehicles, including two formidable brand-new tanks, the Cobra and the Lorraine 50 t.

A new Reward section of the in-game Store will be introduced where you’ll be able to redeem bonds and the following rewards:
  • 3D styles for all Battle Pass Core Vehicles from the previous six Seasons
  • Unique crew members from Season IV onwards
It will become available once you complete all three main Chapters. Plus, an additional time-limited Chapter with a special challenge will become available at the end of the Season.

And of course, the seventh Season will feature three new (and iconic!) Battle Pass Core Vehicles, each with its own unique progressive style: the Kranvagn, the Leopard 1, and the T110E4.

[h2]Battle Pass Season VII Summary[/h2]
  • Battle Pass Season VII kicks off on March 2 and runs until May 30. This is the opening Season of 2022 and the first of the current year in which you can earn Battle Pass Tokens, a special in-game currency.
  • Season VII will consist of three main Chapters you can complete in any order, each comprising 50 Stages. To start completing Stages and earning rewards, select a Chapter. You can also pause the completion of a Chapter and switch to a different one to get your hands on more attractive rewards.
  • An additional time-limited Chapter with a special challenge will become available towards the end of the Season.
  • Perform your best in Random Battles (except for Grand Battles) in Tier VI–X vehicles, earn Battle Pass Points, and advance through Progression Stages. You can also earn Battle Pass Points in all in-game modes in which they will be available (including Ranked Battles), as well as by completing Daily Missions with vehicles of any tier.
  • You now earn Battle Pass Points right from the start of the Season, even if you have not selected any Chapters yet. You can choose to invest them in any of the three main Chapters at your discretion later.
  • Don't forget to spend your Points before the end of the Season to redeem your rewards. Otherwise, all unused Battle Pass Points will disappear!
  • The seventh Season will feature three legendary Battle Pass Core Vehicles: the Leopard 1, the T110E4, and the Kranvagn. These vehicles can earn up to 1,000 Points instead of 700.
  • With each completed Stage, you’ll earn useful Base Rewards, including days of WoT Premium Account, bonds, Crew Books, and much more. This Season, we added 3 more Battle Pass Tokens to the Base Rewards Track that you can spend on Bounty Equipment or to get a rare Tier IX vehicle faster in a special section of the in-game Store.
  • If you want to get even more rewards, you'll need an Improved Pass to get the prizes in the Improved Rewards Track, including the brand-new Bounty Turbocharger. The Improved Pass will be available for both gold and real money.
  • You’ll be able to choose one of the three progressive styles for the three Core Vehicles at the beginning of each Chapter. They will change their appearance, and you’ll receive new 2D and 3D elements when you complete certain Progression Stages.
  • After completing each Chapter of the Season, you will receive a unique crew member.
  • In the opening Season of 2022, you can earn a total of 21 Battle Pass Tokens. They will be distributed across both Reward Tracks.
