[h2]How to Get Rewards[/h2]
To participate in the event, you'll need a Tier III vehicle or higher.

The Operation includes two reward progressions, each consisting of 80 levels. The upper progression is available to everyone with a regular Pass, meaning all players. The lower progression is only available to Premium Pass holders. Increase the Level of your Pass to get rewards. To do so, complete missions and earn Minerals: 10 Minerals = 1 Level.



Although your Level increases automatically, you will need to collect your rewards manually.
You can earn up to 30 Minerals per day. Premium Pass owners enjoy access to an additional daily mission that provides an extra 10 Minerals. With Premium Pass, you can earn 40 Minerals a day and unlock 4 levels with rewards. Also, Premium Pass lets you instantly increase your Level using gold.

[h2]When Does Operation Red Planet Take Place?[/h2]

• CIS: April 1, 8:00 (MSK) to April 29, 8:00 (MSK)
  
• Europe: April 1, 14:00 (CEST) to April 29, 14:00 (CEST)
  
• North America: April 1, 6:00 (PT) / 9:00 (ET) to April 29, 6:00 (PT) / 9:00 (ET)
  
• Asia: April 1, 14:00 (UTC+8) to April 29, 14:00 (UTC+8)
  

[h2]What Rewards Can I Get?
[/h2]There will be huge amounts of resources, themed camos and avatars, a profile background, certificates for XP bonuses for victories, and Collector tanks!



With Premium Pass, the Type 5 Ke-Ho Tier IV light tank awaits you at Level 1. This dynamic and maneuverable fellow is able to successfully complete the mission "Spot. Whirl around. Don’t get caught. Destroy."

And at Level 35, the Explorer tank will be added to your Garage. Equipped with an astrodroid, radar, and solar panels, this Tier VI medium tank fearlessly explores unknown territory in search of hostile activity. Fast like a meteor storm and maneuverable like a stream of ionized particles in the sun's corona, the Explorer effectively battles enemies and returns victorious.

Burning Games is a mode so harsh that tanks lose HP simply by staying in battle! Act fast to snatch your opponents' HP and make their precious points yours! Heal your allies and return to battle even after being destroyed!

We've got to say that you seem to be the luckiest person in the world! In our hands, we have a secret TASA (Terran Association of Serious Astronomers) report. And you know what? It says that a rare cosmic phenomenon, the Golden Globes alignment, should happen soon. Moreover, we know that you'll be playing a crucial role in it! Read to find out what's going on and how to turn this rare occurrence in your favor!

[h2]Where Can You Get Golden Globes?[/h2]

You’ll attract them in battles! For each battle in which you earn at least 200 XP, you'll get 2 Golden Globes. You can increase this number if you enter the battle with economic boosters installed! The cooler the booster, the more Golden Globes you'll get after the battle. For instance, if you install 4 Epic boosters, you'll earn 18 Golden Globes.

A cluster of Golden Globes has been detected on the Galactic Riches event screen. Pull them out of the sky in exchange for Epic boosters, credits, or certificates for 9 hours of Premium Account!

[h2]What Do Golden Globes Provide?[/h2]

Galactic Riches! On the same event screen, you can exchange Golden Globes for Premium Account, Gold boosters, Free XP, a cosmic camouflage, a mind-blowing profile background, certificates for x10 XP (yes, you read that right!)... And a Galactic Container with even more rewards!

A very rich and eventful update is coming your way. Cosmic rewards, flying vehicles, an exploring tank on a far-away planet... About all that and more, you'll learn in due time. In the meanwhile, here are the latest balance changes and improvements!
[h2]It's Getting Hot in Here
[/h2]You'll get to try out new consumables for Tier VII–X tank destroyers from the Grille 15 branch! The Reticle Calibration consumable will reduce gun dispersion and aiming speed by 40 percent within 20 seconds. At the same time, the Spall Liner provision will help you reduce damage from High-Explosive shells by 20 percent.
[h2]New Avatars for Victories
[/h2]
Win Silver, Gold, Platinum, or Diamond League rating battles during WoT Blitz seasons.



[h2]Color Accent
[/h2]The camo selection menu welcomes two newcomers: the daring Urban Jungle and the even more daring Unexpectable camouflage.



The Grandma's Gift, Starlight Night, Evergreen, Oxidized Metal, Digital Forest, Fire Sentinel, and Steppe Snowstorm camos will no longer be available for purchase.

[h2]Balance Changes
[/h2]
Most changes affected Tier V–VI vehicles. Medium tanks became more resilient and maneuverable. The heavies received a raise in HP and, in some cases, firepower. Tank destroyers became more accurate.
[h2]Improvements and Fixed Bugs
[/h2]

• Areas where vehicles became stuck were fixed and some models of buildings and objects were adjusted for some maps.
  
• Various screens, descriptions, and notifications were improved.
  
• General bugs and client crashes were fixed.
