WOT Express: Why WoT Hasn’t Released New Maps in 2 Years

~ KSA ~ 8 Comments

So, when will there be new maps in WoT?

In continuation of last night’s post about maps, we expect at least one new map (or a remastered one in HD) for random battles as part of the 2.0 update, and one more map for random battles in 2025. (Currently, there is more than 1 location for random battles).

But why haven’t the WoT developers released ANY new maps for random battles in 2 years?

WOT Express: No New Maps Added by Developers in the Last 2 Years

~ KSA ~ 7 Comments

This year World of Tanks set many anti-records and one of them is new maps.

Never before in the history of the game has there been a whole calendar year without a single new map added for random battles! At first, WG stuck to the plan of 2 new (or returned to HD) maps per calendar year, then the bar was lowered to 1 map, and what do we have now…
The last NEW map introduced was “Oyster Bay”, dated February 2023, patch 1.20. And that’s it. In 2024, we will NOT get a single new location for randomness. And in 2 months, in February 2025, it will be 2 years since the introduction of this last map.

Two tanks are completely ready for release. One of them, as we predicted, will be released after years of service. ( t.me/c/1925227397/249 )

The rest have had their performance characteristics adjusted, and for good reason. Pay special attention to the 🇨🇳 DZT-159 . This tank is being Buffed for a reason. And it could become the most desirable in the future event.
