The vast majority of active players have already made a choice, so we have come to the next stage of the separation of companies, which will begin on February 1, 2023 and will consist of the following:
- accounts of players who live in Russia and Belarus and who have not made their choice earlier will be transferred to the RU-region;
- the remaining accounts of players who did not make their choice earlier will be transferred to the EU region.
There are many inactive accounts, so the automatic transfer procedure will be carried out gradually and will take several months. February 1 is just the beginning of the automatic transfer process: some accounts can be transferred earlier, some later.

There are plenty of Z fascists on WoT EU,and now they want to add more?so they use WoT general chat and other means to propagate their agenda.
and? hollywood, politicians, the news and all that shit isnt propagating an agenda? why only one side is allowed to?
If you live in Russia on Belarus, well that’s YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM, you voted for those IDIOTS, live with them and FUCK OFF EU, we don’t want those retards here EVER!!!!
“the remaining accounts of players who did not make their choice earlier will be transferred to the EU region.”
Because that makes no sense at all….?!
But of course it makes sense because then the EU platoon rigging companies can get access to these dormant accounts for more dead account abuse. Perfect solution and proves WG collusion….
thanks, but no
They’re using EU as a dumping ground and not even trying to hide it. I wouldn’t be surprised if this move has political backing, considering that Russia is big on training and funding internet trolls to spread disinformation and propaganda.
WG is already unable to curb Asian hackers in World of Warships, so I have little hope that they’ll police pro-Putler fascists.
What do you expect from a bias Belarusian company? What make you think they are against pro Putler propaganda afgter they did allow it for more than 10 years in one form or another?
I’ve been in WoT for long enough to remember the pro-Stalin decals for Soviet tanks, and how long it took for WG to remove them. So yes, I know what you’re talking about.
Also, I don’t think “bias Belarusian” matters. It’s become pretty much impossible to talk about any sort of business without mentioning fraud, tax evasion, opaque as hell policies, bad interaction with customers, and so on.
Seems to me that the core rule is “be as crafty as possible for as long as possible, pay the fine when busted, then be crafty again”.
Yes this is why wot will never be an esport because they have rng and because russians and belowrussians players see no problem with cheating and rigging.
We all know what t hey are doing. They are splitting up and evening out the amount of inactive/dead accounts so they can continue to keep on selling these accounts to the RIGGING/CHEATERS that are doing this. War Gaming has to make a fast buck you know. It’s not enough that they are selling WARPACK, and/or the other cheats that are out there plus they are monetizing every little nook and cranny of this game, that they have to rig & cheat their way into destroying this game.
