Offer: Scandinavian Week

Commanders!

Today we’ve prepared the following items for you:
  • Stridsvagn 2000 Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank
  • CV90120 Ghost Tier 9 Premium Light Tank
  • CV90 Mk.IV Tier 8 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle
  • CV90105 TML Tier 7 Premium Light Tank
  • Swedish bundle with real-life Swedish camouflages
  • Norwegian bundle with real-life Scandinavian camouflages and unit insignia
  • Danish bundle with real-life Danish camouflage and base paint
  • Iron Crate
Between January 9, 2025 and January 16, 2025, the following items will be available:

 
[h2]Stridsvagn 2000[/h2]
 

The Stridsvagn 2000 was to be Sweden’s next Main Battle Tank, designed to combat Soviet super-tanks such as the Black Eagle. For its time, the project was nothing short of revolutionary with extremely thick frontal armor and a powerful 140mm gun that could take on literally anything in its day. However, the Soviet threat dissipated with the collapse of the Soviet Union, which pushed Sweden to seek a cheaper solution to its tank problem, namely the Leopard 2 MBT. You can learn more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Stridsvagn 2000 is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank that represents the essence of practicality. Solid armor, decent mobility and excellent damage over time output make this tank one of the most versatile tools you can have in your arsenal, equally capable in PvP and PvE. Aside from its advanced NERA armor, the Strv 2000 features a coaxial 40mm autocannon. The key to success is switching between both weapon systems and maximizing your damage output while your NERA armor eliminated one enemy shell after another.

The Stridsvagn 2000 MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.

 
This bundle is available in our Web Shop. It can be accessed it directly in the game by clicking the shopping cart button in the upper left corner of the Garage.
 

 
[h2]CV90120 Ghost[/h2]
 

The CV90120 “Ghost” Light Tank was a Swedish demonstrator based on an earlier fire support model of the CV90120. As its name suggests, the vehicle is armed with 120mm smoothbore cannon but that’s the least interesting on its features. The Ghost is named after a special camouflage system called ADAPTIV that's capable of masking the bulky tank in the IR spectrum so well it disappears from enemy screens – like a ghost. You can learn more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the CV90120 Ghost is a Tier 9 Premium Light Tank. Depending on your choices, it can be configured two ways – as a fast hit-and-run Light Tank using the combination of a Ready Rack and its excellent mobility, or as a stealthy sniper using the ADAPTIV system and the upgraded ammunition. While you won’t be as stealthy as dedicated Tank Destroyers or small AFVs, you’ll still be able to do a lot of damage from behind the safety of your lines.


This bundle is available in our Web Shop. It can be accessed it directly in the game by clicking the shopping cart button in the upper left corner of the Garage.
 

 
[h2]CV90 Mk.IV[/h2]
 

The Swedish CV90 Mk.IV IFV is the most modern version of the old but constantly developed CV90 platform. Since its introduction in the early 1990s, the vehicle was upgraded so much that this 2018 model bears little resemblance to the three decades old original, featuring cutting edge electronics as well as a brand new turret. You can learn more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the CV90 Mk.IV is a Tier 8 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle. It is a durable and reliable infantry carrier capable not only of dealing tremendous damage with its 50mm autocannon, but of launching powerful Spike missiles as well. In addition to that, it’s relatively well-protected and can also carry Mechanized Infantry. What’s there not to like?

This bundle is available in our Web Shop. It can be accessed it directly in the game by clicking the shopping cart button in the upper left corner of the Garage.
 

 
[h2]CV90105 TML[/h2]
 

The CV90105 TML from the 1990s was one of the first attempts to convert the CV90 chassis into a fire support vehicle by combining it with a French TML turret. The result was a fairly capable Light Tank with considerable firepower in the form of its 105mm GIAT gun that could successfully take out most MBTs of its time. Unfortunately, the vehicle didn’t manage to attract any customers and remained a prototype only. You can learn more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the CV90105 TML is a Tier 7 Premium Light Tank. Depending on your choices, it can be configured two ways. You can opt for a more sustained firepower with the large 12-round clip – this way you need to stay behind your own team or hide in bushes, turning your Light Tank into something like a close support Tank Destroyer. Or, you can opt for the fun option of turning your CV90105 TML into a hit and run monster. Ambush an enemy, empty the magazine into his sides or rear and immediately retreat.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop. It can be accessed it directly in the game by clicking the shopping cart button in the upper left corner of the Garage.
 

 
[h2]Swedish Bundle[/h2]
 

Despite its neutrality, Sweden is one of the premiere arms manufacturers in the world and has a powerful standing army to boot. Even though the country was not a part of the NATO until few months ago, much of its vehicle fleet is compatible with western tech and the country now operates the Leopard 2 MBT (under the name Stridsvagn 122) as well as several CV90 variants. This bundle includes several camouflages tied to Sweden as well as a special player title.



The bundle consists of:
  • Scandinavian Summer camouflage (read more)
  • Scandinavian Winter camouflage (read more)
  • Swedish Export camouflage (read more)
  • Swedish Urban camouflage (as seen on various CV90 prototypes)
  • Swedish Flag decal
  • Player title “Viking”


 
This bundle is available in our Web Shop. It can be accessed it directly in the game by clicking the shopping cart button in the upper left corner of the Garage.
 

 
[h2]Norwegian Bundle[/h2]
 

Unlike Sweden, Norway is a part of the NATO with its units regularly taking part in operations abroad. One of the elite units of the Norwegian military is the famous Telemark Battalion of Mechanized Infantry and this bundle includes two items tied to it as well as the Scandinavian camouflages used by Norway and a Norwegian base paint, as seen on a Telemark Leopard deployed to Estonia in 2017.



The bundle consists of:
  • Scandinavian Summer camouflage (read more)
  • Scandinavian Winter camouflage (read more)
  • Scandinavian base paint (read more)
  • Telemark Battalion decal
  • Telemark Battalion flag
  • Player title “Einheri”


This bundle is available in our Web Shop. It can be accessed it directly in the game by clicking the shopping cart button in the upper left corner of the Garage.
 

 
[h2]Danish Bundle[/h2]
 

And last but definitely not least, we have Denmark, the army equipped with some of the best military hardware there is, including the Leopard 2A7DK Main Battle Tank. Aside from its simple but unique camouflage, this bundle contains a Danish player title, the Scandinavian base paint and a decal.



The bundle consists of:
  • Danish camouflage (read more)
  • Scandinavian base paint (read more)
  • Danish 1st Armored Battalion decal
  • Player title “Thrice-Hearted” (referring to the Holger Danske legend)


This bundle is available in our Web Shop. It can be accessed it directly in the game by clicking the shopping cart button in the upper left corner of the Garage.
 

 
[h2]Iron Crate[/h2]
 

We’ve prepared for you an additional offer this week. The Iron Crate is available in our Web Shop!



This crate allows you to win a Tier 4 to Tier 10 Premium vehicle (or its value in Gold if you have it already). The crate contains some very rare vehicles, including:

  • VN17 Tier 8 Premium AFV


This bundle is available in our Web Shop. It can be accessed it directly in the game by clicking the shopping cart button in the upper left corner of the Garage.


We hope that you will enjoy the offer and, as always:

New Year Gift

Commanders!

Another year has gone by and it’s been a wild one for Armored Warfare. We released a new progression vehicle, we had two contracts running. There have been those three Battle Paths, a new Special Operation map, and the first iteration of an entirely new game mode. But, above all, Armored Warfare is now independently operated by Wishlist Games and we’re proud to have handled the transition with just some minor hiccups.

That being said, not everything’s been ideal and there is a lot of room for improvement. We’re going to work hard to make 2025 even better than 2024. But for now we would like to wish you a lot of luck, happiness and fun with Armored Warfare!



To celebrate the end of the year, we’ve once again prepared a gift for you. The gift is available until January 9, 2025, and contains the following items:

  • Camouflage: Russian (Winter)
  • Decal: Baikal Bear
  • 2 Battle Coin boost tokens


This gift is available in our Web Shop.



Aside from this, we still have a major set of bonuses running until January 9, 2025:

  • 50% bonus to Battle Coin income
  • 50% bonus to XP income
  • 30% bonus to Credit income


We hope that you’ll enjoy the end of the year and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

Offer: XM2001 Crusader

Commanders!

Today we’ve prepared the following items for you:

  • XM2001 Crusader Tier 10 Premium Self-Propelled Gun
  • Challenger 2 Streetfighter II Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank
  • M-95 Degman Tier 8 Premium Main Battle Tank
  • Type 96B Tier 8 Premium Main Battle Tank
  • M1A1 Storm Tier 7 Premium Main Battle Tank
  • MBT-70 Tier 6 Premium Main Battle Tank
  • Elite Commanders
  • Seahawks Loot Crate


Between December 26, 2024 and January 9, 2025, the following items will be available:

[h2]XM2001 Crusader[/h2]

The XM2001 Crusader is an American attempt to replace the M109A6 Paladin in the 1990s with something more modern. The project was cancelled in 2002 due to its heavy weight. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

In Armored Warfare, the XM2001 Crusader is a Tier 10 Premium Self-Propelled Gun. The Crusader is an ideal vehicle for players who like to play aggressively. Dominate the battlefield with unrivalled firepower of a three-round 155mm magazine paired with guided HE rounds, and retreat under the cover of smoke thanks to your speed and agility. The Crusader is the ultimate SPG you've been dreaming of!

The Crusader is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.



[h2]Challenger 2 Streetfighter II[/h2]

The Streetfighter II is an upgrade program to overhaul the venerable Challenger 2 Main Battle Tank for the conditions of modern battlefields, especially urban combat. It features a number of improvements and extra components, most notably a dozer blade, a Brimstone ATGM twin launcher and an advanced camera system by Elbit. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Challenger 2 Streetfighter is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank. Its main advantages include excellent frontal armor (enhanced by the presence of its dozer blade covering its lower frontal plate), increased ramming damage and long range lethality, courtesy of a powerful ATGM launcher. Whether you desire to bring the fighting up close or support other MBTs at distance, the Streetfighter’s got your back.

The Challenger 2 Streetfighter II Tier 10 Premium MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.




[h2]M-95 Degman[/h2]

The M-95 Degman is an advanced Croatian prototype MBT, developed during the 1990s and 2000s. It is based on the previous Yugoslavian project, the Vihor MBT, which in turn has its roots in the improved T-72M series produced in former Yugoslavia. You can read more about its history in a dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the tank is relatively fast and fairly agile while carrying some potent firepower for its Tier. In fact, its owners can choose from two powerful guns:

  • 125mm 2A46 Russian-style smoothbore gun, known from many Russian MBTs
  • 120mm CTG NATO-style smoothbore gun that you know from the Challenger 1 Falcon MBT


It’s worth noting that the 120mm shells have higher penetration values and the gun can also fire Falarick ATGMs while the 125mm gun has higher damage per shot. Both guns will feature good handling as well as overall performance to offset the vehicle’s weakness, which is its mediocre armor. The Degman must rely on its mobility and firepower to survive, making it an ideal vehicle for aggressive, daring players.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.




[h2]Type 96B[/h2]

The Type 96B MBT, as its name suggests, is an evolution of the Type 96A, featuring such elements as an upgraded fire control system and a much more powerful engine, resulting in considerably better mobility and speed. Unlike the Type 96A, however, the Type 96B is a prototype, designed for the Chinese military team to use during the annual Tank Biathlon event in Russia. In 2017, the Chinese team won the second place, being defeated only by Russia. You can learn more about its history in our dedicated article!



In Armored Warfare, the Type 96B is a Tier 8 Premium Main Battle Tank. Gameplay-wise, it’s very agile and fast for its class and uses advanced ammunition, making it highly suitable for players who prefer mobility over armor protection, even though it can take a lot of punishment as well.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.




[h2]M1A1 Storm[/h2]

In 1985, the Abrams was upgraded with, amongst other things, the 120mm M256 smoothbore cannon. Over 5000 M1A1 tanks were produced until 1992. This tank participated in Operation Desert Storm, which forged its legendary reputation.



In Armored Warfare, the M1A1 Storm is a Tier 7 Premium Main Battle Tank. The M1A1 Storm look was inspired by Operation Desert Storm, including a gorgeous camouflage net model. But, more importantly, this tank is equipped with a massive frontal dozer blade, adding extra armor and ramming damage to the long list of its advantages.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.




[h2]MBT-70[/h2]

Germany and the United States cooperated in the 1960s and 70s to create the ultimate Main Battle Tank to replace the aging Patton tank series in service. The MBT-70 prototype tank was the U.S. result of the development program. It was exceptionally well armed with a 152mm gun, capable of firing guided missiles and equipped with cutting edge technology, but high costs and endless delays in development led to the cancellation of this project and the subsequent adoption of a more reasonable design – the Abrams.



In Armored Warfare, the MBT-70 is a Tier 6 Premium Main Battle Tank. Several features make it quite unique – it has a large caliber gun that, while slow to reload, delivers tremendous damage with each shot. It can also fire devastating guided missiles and while its mobility levels aren’t the best, it can devastate its opponents with well-timed shots, relying on its armor to keep it alive while it reloads. And last but not least, this vehicle has a hydraulic suspension available, allowing it to tilt its hull to improve its gun depression and elevation.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.




[h2]Elite Commanders[/h2]

Some of the most popular and requested commanders are making a comeback in bundles together with Insignia and Boost tokens chosen specifically to allow for their faster training.



The commanders available are:

  • Alexander Cortez
  • Alisa Korhonen
  • Erin O’Connell
  • Austin Harper
  • Ophelia Kitescu


Please note that these bundles come with special Platinum Armored Warfare boost tokens, the best progress boosters available in the game. You can read more about them in our dedicated article.

As for the commanders themselves, this guide will provide you with useful tips on how to configure their skills.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.



[h2]Seahawks Loot Crate[/h2]

The Seahawks Loot Crate is now available. This Loot Crate contains Tales from the Dark Battle Coins and Boosters.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

  • Battle Coins are the primary currency of the Seahawks Battle Path campaign and are used to progress through it and to obtain its prizes.

Armored Warfare: 2024 in Review



[h3]Commanders![/h3]

[h3]August: EMBT[/h3]

The Enhanced Main Battle Tank (EMBT) made its debut in August, showcasing advanced French and German engineering. Equipped with the 140mm ASCALON cannon, Trophy APS, and Galix soft-kill APS, this Tier 10 sniper MBT excels in long-range engagements and is a true technological marvel.

[h3]August: Lone Star Special Operation[/h3]

The second chapter of the Black Company saga, Lone Star, transported commanders to the urban battlegrounds of Port Houston. This mission challenged players to liberate a prisoner camp while navigating intense close-quarters combat. Rewards included the Lone Star camouflage, a Cowboy avatar, and 28 new achievements.

[h3]September: T-80BVM[/h3]

The T-80BVM, a progression Main Battle Tank, finally joined the catalog of vehicles available for research in Armored Warfare FOR FREE! Boasting upgrades from Russia’s Motobol program, it features Kontakt-5 ERA and a 1250hp turbine engine, delivering exceptional performance in cold environments. As a key link in the Soviet tank lineage, the T-80BVM stands out as a formidable addition to the progression lineup.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

[h3]September: T-64BV Mod. 2017[/h3]

The T-64BV Mod. 2017, a Tier 7 Premium MBT, brought Ukrainian engineering to the forefront. Featuring Nizh ERA, a 125mm cannon with gun-launched missiles, and superior mobility, this assault tank is both agile and formidable in frontal engagements.
As a reward vehicle for the seasonal contract, it’s not too late to join the event! Complete daily and weekly missions to claim this powerful prize.

[h3]October: Shockwave Update[/h3]

The Shockwave Update introduced the thrilling Shockwave Mode, a survival endgame challenge for Tier 10 vehicles. Teams of five faced relentless waves of enemies in a fight for survival and high rewards.
In addition, the update delivered exciting improvements:

  • Dynamic Decals for enhanced customization.
  • New Sounds for iconic vehicles like the T-72 series.
  • PELE Overhaul for improved shell mechanics.
  • Crew and Commander Upgrades, including a new skill slot.
  • Crew Upgrades: A new sixth training level was added, along with an extra skill slot for greater tactical flexibility.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

[h3]December: XM2001 Crusader[/h3]

Closing out the year, the XM2001 Crusader delivered precision artillery strikes with its 155mm gun and three-round magazine. This Tier 10 Premium SPG combines exceptional speed (67 km/h) with moderate armor and requires careful positioning due to its turret’s limited traverse angle. The Crusader’s firepower and mobility make it a standout addition to any commander’s arsenal.

Starting December 26, the Crusader will be available through blueprint loot crates, giving commanders another opportunity to add this formidable vehicle to their collection.

[h3]Thank You, Commanders![/h3]

2024 has been an incredible journey, and we couldn’t have done it without you. Here’s to more adventures in 2025—see you on the battlefield!
