Frontline Returns With a New Map!

From June 5 through June 12, Frontline will return to World of Tanks for its first week-long run in 2023! Our most epic mode will feature a fresh 3×3 km map called Fata Morgana with a desert landscape. Located in Northern Africa, Fata Morgana offers a large variety of battle zones, including a massive oil refinery, a rugged canyon, historic castle ruins, and other picturesque areas.

We’ve also improved the Kraftwerk map. It has received a series of balance fixes that will make gameplay more comfortable for both teams.

On top of that, we’ve made several balance improvements to boost your gameplay experience in Frontline. Prepare your favorite Tier VIII vehicles and get ready to earn tons of credits and other in-game rewards!

Steel Hunter: Reborn

Our battle royale mode returns on June 12 and is now more accessible than ever! Steel Hunter: Reborn is a fast-paced interpretation of the familiar format, but its rules are simpler and more straightforward.

In the latest update of Steel Hunter, you now have a chance to jump back into the action with the addition of respawns. This feature allows for more opportunities to try out different strategies and reduce the impact of early mistakes. Steel Hunter has also undergone a rework in vehicle and gameplay balancing, making for a more enjoyable experience. Additionally, players can now face off against Marauders, AI-driven opponents with unique behaviors, adding a new level of excitement to battles. You’ll be able to earn Battle Pass Points throughout the event.

Your objective remains the same: to become the ultimate survivor in this adrenaline-fueled battle royale. Prepare to fight until there's only one tank left standing, and emerge as the victorious champion!

Service Record Page Update

We’ve thoroughly redesigned the Service Record page in the Garage by making it more informative and useful. In addition to the familiar parameters, such as the total number of battles fought, average damage, and win rate, new parameters have been added. You can now see your assistance and damage records, as well as several other stats that you can be proud of.

We’ve also replaced the Personal Rating with WTR as a better representation of players' actual performance. You can now see it on your main statistics page with reworked visuals. It will be divided into 15 mastery levels, each with its own unique style.

We’re also introducing the ability to customize your combat achievements. Now, you and other Commanders will be able to see your most valuable medals and other enviable awards!
