[h2]Chinese Light Tanks Branch[/h2]
Meet five daring light tanks — swift, compact, featuring great damage per minute and a short aiming time! Tier IX and X vehicles come with a new Adaptive Concealment mechanic.
[h2]Sunlit Middleburg[/h2]
The map has been visually revamped! More realistic lighting and materials will make your gaming experience even more immersive. The updated Middleburg map features more light and objects, while its gameplay didn't change. Well, only that it's now covered by more trees.



If your device isn't ready for the new Middleburg graphics, you can enable the medium quality option for objects and terrain in the settings. At the same time, the graphics of maps that haven't yet been updated to the new visual quality will remain the same.

[h2]Balance Changes[/h2]
This time, changes affected four branches of different nations: Japanese heavies, French tank destroyers, and German and American medium tanks. Playing these well-known vehicles will now bring you lots of new experiences and emotions. Rebalancing will emphasize the playstyle succession inside branches, fully unfolding it at the highest tier.
[h2]Camouflage[/h2]
New Legendary camos will await owners of two predators: the snowy Irbis for the Leopard 1 and the flaming Colossus for the Löwe.



More than a dozen Legendary and Rare camos, including Moderno for the Controcarro 3 Minotauro, Ammoel for the T57 Heavy Tank, and Hugo for the Caliban, became available in the camo selection menu.

The Grandma's Gift, Starlight Night, and Evergreen camos will no longer be available for purchase.
[h2]Improvements and Fixed Bugs[/h2]

• Added Ukrainian localization of the game.
  
• The following tanks, along with their Legendary camos, were updated to the new graphics quality: the Rhm.-Borsig Waffenträger, the FV4005 and Overkill, the IS-4 and Skilled.
  
• Rewards in daily containers and containers for completing missions were changed. Parts of the certificate for Premium Account will be replaced with a mission for receiving a mastery badge. Complete this mission to get certificates for x3–x5 XP as a reward.
  
• Various screens, descriptions, and notifications were improved.
  
• General bugs and client crashes were fixed.
  

Update 9.7 brings Ukrainian localization to World of Tanks Blitz. This means that you'll be able to select this language in Settings, as well as read news in Ukrainian in the game client and on the portal. The crew will also speak Ukrainian in battle!

You may still see texts in English among Ukrainian news and articles for a while. Translation is time-consuming — please wait a little, we'll soon update everything.

Thank you for staying with us! We'll be happy to speak to you in your native language.

Dear players!

In September, CIS servers were turned off for World of Tanks Steam. All CIS realm players got an opportunity to transfer their accounts to the EU server and continue playing World of Tanks Blitz via Steam.

Since that time, the majority of our active playerbase have used the account transfer opportunity to stay with Wargaming and play on the EU server. However, there remains a large quantity of so-called “inactive accounts”: players who decided to take a break from the game for a while and thus haven’t made a decision about the transfer.

On February 1, 2023, the automatic transfer for such inactive accounts had begun. All inactive accounts previously registered on the CIS realm via Steam will be automatically transferred to the EU server, retaining the progress, vehicles, purchases, gold, statistics etc.
