World of Tanks Season VIII Coming to the Warhammer 40K Universe First Joining the World of Tanks Console

World of Tanks, a subsidiary of Wargaming.net, announced today (26th) that Season VIII of the Tank Expedition will debut soon, and Warhammer 40K will debut on World of Tanks. New elements are added to the season. Players will be able to choose their favorite Warhammer 40K faction to fight on the battlefield, whether it’s an Ultramarine, Death Guard or an evil orc in Warhammer 40K.

Officially, Season VIII will consist of three main chapters, which players can complete in any order, with 50 stages in each chapter. Unlike previous seasons, each core vehicle in Season VIII will feature a 3D style with elements of the Warhammer 40K faction. For each chapter completed in the current season, players will be able to earn the Warhammer 40K faction elements of the chapter’s Captain, 2D style, and a host of customization elements.

Max Chuvalov, Global Publishing Director of World of Tanks, said: “We are excited to work with Warhammer 40K and bring this element to World of Tanks, and I believe players are as excited as we are! The concept is very similar to Warhammer 40K. On the battlefield, the outcome of the battle is often determined by strategy, knowing your role and how to work with your teammates to ensure victory.”

Officially, the core mechanics of Season VIII are largely the same as previous seasons. Players can earn Tank Expedition Points and progress through the progression stages by driving their Tier VI–X vehicles and performing at their best in random battles (excluding major battles). Players can also complete daily tasks and earn points by driving vehicles of any tier.
