Commanders!
gamescom is upon us, and we wanted a little something to celebrate it! That’s why today, we’re happy to introduce a new vehicle to World of Tanks: the T26E3, also known as the Eagle 7!
As a member of the Pershing family, the T26E3 is a real “king of the hill”: use its terrific gun handling and great depression to peek over the terrain for a few shots. You can always use its thick mantlet to withstand a few shells, and rely on the precision of your gun in case of a counter-attack.
By the way guys, you’ll probably find some inspiration in the backstory of this tank, which won a duel against a German Pantherduring the battle of Cologne, the city where gamescom is held! Take a look at our historical article on the subject to know more about the Eagle 7!
Make the most of the offers below as they will run from 21 August to 4 September at 07:00 CEST (UTC+2)!
Price is around 25€.

A little over a year ago, World of Tanks upgraded to version 9.18, introducing important enhancements to the game’s matchmaker. As opposed to its predecessor, the new version’s functionality was based on several templates that regulated pre-battle team formation. Since then, the tool has gone through several changes, until it reached a level of performance that met the expectations of both the community and the dev team.

So, now that the game has proper team distribution, mismatches are a rare case. Everyone’s happy, right? Not really. The new approach benefited everyone, apart from preferential Premium vehicles.
