World of Tanks: Heat

In an alternate post-WW2 timeline shaped by rapid scientific progress and global cooperation, humanity's technological marvels – once symbols of hope – have become strategic flashpoints in an escalating worldwide conflict. Elite Agents answer the call. Equipped with high-tech tanks and unique combat abilities, they fight a new kind of war – one defined not by borders, but by precision, firepower, and tactical dominance. Welcome to World of Tanks: Heat, a free-to-play PvP vehicle shooter packed with explosive combat and non-stop action.

Battle through intense 5v5 and 10v10 matches featuring fast-paced, ability-enhanced vehicle combat. Team up with friends, combine abilities, and dominate in adrenaline-fueled battles that reward timing, synergy, and precision. Choose from a growing roster of Agents, each unlocking new experimental tanks and fresh tactical layers in turn. Your tank is more than steel and firepower – it's an instrument shaped by your decisions. Every upgrade matters. Each vehicle has a strict power cap, so you'll need to choose your loadout wisely: boost firepower or reinforce armor? The path to victory lies in trade-offs that reflect your playstyle.

New Content Added At Launch

  • Eight Agents: Three battlefield roles — Defender, Assault, and Marksman. Each Agent commands a lethal two-vehicle roster, with each vehicle tailored to its role in combat.
  • Fifteen Vehicles: Every vehicle supports a different playstyle and can be fully customized through modules and equipment. Whether holding the frontline or striking from a distance, there's a tank that is ready for the job.
  • Eight Maps: The battlefields span a wide range of biomes, settings, and visual styles, each designed to support multiple playstyles across game modes.
  • Four PvP Modes: Hardpoint, Control, Kill Confirmed, and Conquest are available.
