Blitz Turns 7: Entertainment Coming Soon!

The 7th birthday of World of Tanks Blitz is coming soon! This means there will be even more in-game events, specials, bonuses, and gifts than usual. At the huge Blitzland theme park, where the monthly Operation is already taking place, new attractions are opening up. Check out the current events guide and let's celebrate together!

[h2]Shooting Gallery[/h2]
Open June 14–June 21
Shooting Gallery counts medals, badges, and victories.

To participate in the medal and badge count, bring medals and badges to the Shooting Gallery and exchange them for resources:
  • High Caliber medal: 1 day of Premium Account
  • Top Gun medal: 1 certificate for x3 XP
  • Ace Tanker badge: 3 Gold boosters

To take part in the victory count, just win 20 battles before the Shooting Gallery closes. If you do, you'll get the main prize—the Pz. IV Gargoyle Tier V Collector tank!

LEARN MORE!

[h2]Strength-o-Meter[/h2]
Open June 21–June 28

Once the Shooting Gallery closes, visit the Strength-o-Meter tent.

You'll need to cause as much damage as you can in 10 battles. You can start a new series of battles once a day each day while the Strength-o-Meter is open.

So that some random incident doesn't ruin your result, you can start the series of 10 battles only by tapping "Ready!" Before you start, we recommend you warm up properly and select a high-tier tank.

Depending on your achievements, you can win Gold boosters, Premium Account, and the Urban Spark Rare camouflage from the Strength-o-Meter. If you manage to strike the maximum result, a shiny new Kunze Panzer Tier VII Premium tank will become yours!



[h2]Souvenir Stall[/h2]
Open June 21–June 28

There are... souvenirs... available at the Souvenir Stall! You can buy tanks from the game's previous birthdays, the Crucible profile background, the Unforgettable 7 avatar, and containers with various camos as a keepsake for this magnificent celebration.

You'll need Tickets to purchase souvenirs. You can get them from bundles with gold.

[h2]Ceremonial Gift-Giving[/h2]
Open June 16–July 16

You'll receive a festive container on a separate stage. This container includes Premium Account, gold, Free XP, and an avatar. If you've been playing the game for a long time, you'll also find a Rare or Epic camouflage. Players who have been playing the game for 5+ years will receive an additional container with a Tier V or Tier VII tank! Note: Your account should be created before June 14, 2021.

Take what's yours and tell your friends all about it!

[h2]Special![/h2]
Open June 25–June 28

During the celebration, a special with bonuses and discounts will be available in the game! Enjoy five times more XP for victories, a bonus on converting Elite XP to Free XP, and DISCOUNTS on almost everything: researchable and Premium tanks in the Tech Tree, camos and attachments, crew training, Garage slots, provisions, consumables, and equipment.

Well, what can we say? When we celebrate, we celebrate BIG!

More Tanks

We recreated American experimental concepts presented in 1953. Four Tier VII–X heavy tanks are ready to be researched! The new Americans are eager to attack, and the high-tier tanks are capable of elegantly retreating since they're equipped with emergency tracks.



More Realism

Check out massive graphics improvements! Each tank will have an individually tuned dynamic suspension. It won't affect gameplay, but the laws of physics never looked so beautiful in action!



An even bigger change awaits! We're going to update vehicles to a new graphics quality! What does this mean? Check out the new Yohs: all materials look and seem more realistic. Tanks can become covered in snow or mud. And they clean off after being rinsed down by water. We will gradually rework all tanks so that your gaming experience will become even more immersive.



More Comfort, More Style

Now, camos that you have a suitable certificate for are marked with an exclamation sign in the Camo menu of each tank.



The Instigator Legendary camouflage for the TVP 50/51 is now available in the camo selection menu.

Improvements and Fixed Bugs

- Smasher. The bug where AP shells didn't lose penetration over distances was fixed.
- Now the Camo menu becomes available once the player gets a Tier IV tank.
- The bug where auto-aim switched to a passing tank was fixed.
- Various screens, descriptions, and notifications were improved.
- General bugs and client crashes were fixed.
