WoT: New Vehicles in Open Sales – A Shift in Distribution

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the distribution model for premium vehicles in World of Tanks has evolved. Players now primarily acquire new premium tanks through loot boxes, auctions, marathons, and similar events. Consequently, only about one new tank per year is released through straightforward open sales, excluding those associated with collaborations or special events.

Here is a list of vehicles introduced via open sales since 2020:

  • June 18, 2020: ISU-152K
  • August 11, 2021: Škoda T 56
  • August 31, 2022: SMV CC-64 Vipera
  • August 10, 2023: GSOR 1010 FB
  • February 26, 2025: KV-4 Turchaninov

Instead of the warm hues of sunset, the map will feature a cool, daytime lighting scheme dominated by white tones. The vibrant greens of the coniferous forests will become even more striking, while the rocky terrain will take on a naturally austere appearance.
