The battlefield is about to erupt! World of Tanks: HEAT, a new standalone free-to-play tactical vehicle shooter, launches on May 26. Set in an alternate post-WWII era, HEAT delivers a faster, more dynamic take on armored warfare driven by team-based combat.
World of Tanks: HEAT will be available across PC (Wargaming Game Center and Steam), Steam Deck, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and NVIDIA GeForce NOW, supporting full cross-platform play and progression.
HEAT is built from the ground up on a new proprietary engine developed in-house by Wargaming. This technology delivers modern visuals and immersive environments while enabling fast, responsive gameplay optimized for smooth performance across a wide range of hardware.
At launch, players can expect:
- Eight Agents: Three battlefield roles — Defender, Assault, and Marksman. Each Agent commands a lethal two-vehicle roster, with each vehicle tailored to its role in combat.
- Fifteen vehicles: Every vehicle supports a different playstyle and can be fully customized through modules and equipment. Whether holding the frontline or striking from a distance, there’s a tank that is ready for the job.
- Eight maps: The battlefields span a wide range of biomes, settings, and visual styles, each designed to support multiple playstyles across game modes.
- Four PvP modes: Hardpoint, Control, Kill Confirmed, and Conquest are available.
