As previously announced, every currently registered player in the CIS region will have to decide between transferring to the EU region operated by Wargaming or to the Lesta Games servers. Player transfers have begun from today, September 20, and players in the CIS region have until October 12 to decide to be able to continue playing.
Same Benefits, Continued Support
Little will change for existing players on the EU server, but transferred players will immediately be able to experience the same specials, benefits, and services that existing EU players already have access to. The EU World of Tanks portal, Player Support portal, and dedicated community channels are now available in two additional languages—Ukrainian and Russian—as they represent the most commonly spoken languages in the CIS region.
Server Populations & Platoon Options
For now, transferred players will join the dedicated EU3 and EU4 servers. They can invite players from the EU1 and EU2 servers into platoons but cannot directly log in to World of Tanks and select EU1 or EU2.
The opposite is also possible, so current EU players will be able to play with players from EU3 and EU4 through a Platoon invite. If the Platoon disbands, the player can continue playing on the server until they log out or switch back to their original server.
Payment Methods
Payment methods in the EU region (Wargaming) are available to players from all countries except for the Russian Federation and Belarus. Russian and Belarusian payment methods will only be supported in the RU region (Lesta Games).
Premium Shop Reset
Players from the Russian Federation and Belarus already playing on EU servers will have their Premium Shop place of residence automatically reset from the start of the transfer process on September 20.
Those players may need to update their place of residence according to the country in which they currently reside. The availability and number of payment methods can vary, depending on the place of residence.
We recommend reaching out to Player Support with any further issues.
Allowing Russian players entry into the EU server when Russia has made enemies of the world except the few banana republics that back it is a very poor choice IMHO.
Its the reason i stopped playing wot .
The west has propaganda, Russia has propaganda. Everyone is reacting to their gov’t controlled media. Online gaming is good way to open dialogue between two opposing side.
My suspicion is that the people taking advantage of this are mostly going to be “near abroad” residents who were playing on the old RU servers out of convenience. Possibly some newly “ex-pat” Russians who have gotten out of Dodge and are not planning on going back!
There’s hardly any who will transfer. If they do, how can they buy anything on EU server with their Rus bank account .. not going to happen lol
Probably true…probably better to start from scratch…assuming one still cares about such things!
“There’s hardly any who will transfer.”
Meanwhile 34k players on EU3…
Yes Ukrainians fuck face
Most of them will be from Ukraine vs RU I’ll bet, as they had more players then anyone in Europe as is going by numbers from earlier this year. And going by the RU forum from people that has EU accounts…. Not everything is closed off in terms of payment options for them here.
And from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Qazaqstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan is my guess. You know, the other countries in the CIS region.

Амар байна уу?
Sure beats the 10k EU total of usual.
I remember 2 years ago after a patch it would 250k
Great! Now I can finally kill all those skilless dumb piece of russian shit in this game :D. I really hope NATO will find a final solution to this subhuman ruzzki problem. I like to see them run, die and BURN in their shittanks so much. 😀 😀
Unless you had a CIS region account you transferred, no you can’t.
The transferred accounts can only join EU3 (Luxemberg) and EU4 (Qazaqstan) while existing EU accounts can only join EU1 and EU2.
Wrong again weeb.
They can be invited to platoon by EU 1 or 2 and once there even if not in platoon they will stay on those server.
Use brain before open mouth SpongeBob
Talking shit about Russia while massively funding their businessman Victor is such an EU thing. IQ << shoe number…
“Ruski subhuman, here is 200 euros for lootboxes that contains nothing, you dumb piece of shit, i am superior race, give me nothing but frustration for 200 euros you peasant”.

What’s this language? Sounds understandable, i’m really curious.
Probably mongolgyar. They should really migrate back to their Asian steppes, considering they love rasha and their daddy putin so much
Угуй.
As a proud mongol, I can say with 100% certainty that it isn’t Монгол хел.
It is Russian or Ukrainian. They both are the same shitty Slavic
Update your knowledge idiot.
Victor resigned years ago lmao
I’d rather play with Russian and Ukrainians much better than poopy brown shit skins.
