December 1st, 2023 – The first winter day has come, marking the launch of the anticipated Holiday Ops 2024 event in the World of Tanks Franchise. This traditional and festive extravaganza promises intense action, fantastic gifts, and prized in-game rewards for players across PC, mobile and console. Delivering this season’s excitement is the renowned British footballer and movie star, Vinnie Jones. He is retiring from the role as Santa’s enforcer for a slick new gig as a Commander in World of Tanks.
The Holiday Ops 2024 event begins on December 1st and runs through January 8th, offering a unique blend of holiday-themed activities tailored to each platform’s gameplay.
World of Tanks
December 1st, 2023 – January 8th, 2024
Players will enjoy a super-jolly and atmospheric Holiday Village, ready for their decorative touch. Upon entering it, tankers will receive their first gift: the brand-new Premium Czechoslovakian light tank Pzw.39.
Vinnie Jones will wait in the Headquarters to give special missions and assignments. Upon completion, tankers will unlock celebrity-inspired rewards, including three exclusive 2D styles, decals, inscriptions with iconic phrases, and even Vinnie Jones himself as a Tank Commander completed with exclusive voiceover. But that is not all; players can also anticipate a special skin Old Reliable for the Cobra tank, with every element designed in the style of this year’s star.
Prime Gaming members can expect unique content from the celebrity Commander, including 2 decals, a medal, and the special Paradox 2D style. Steam players can grab a 2D decal, as a specially designed present from Vinnie.
World of Tanks Blitz
December 1st – December 20th, 2023
World of Tanks Blitz presents a list of Holiday Ops activities, including a 10-stage celebrity quest with unique collectibles, avatars, profile background, all in the style of Vinnie Jones. The 10th stage will bring the final reward and the biggest gift under the tree – the “Final Argument” attachment. What’s even better, players will participate in the holiday draw for a chance to become the proud owner of the Cobra tank with a legendary camouflage.
World of Tanks Modern Armor
December 1st, 2023 – January 8th, 2024
