Do you want to add to your vehicle collection? Great! Simply enter the game every day and do your best in battles. Yep, you read that right! You'll get a tank for free for your mastery!
How Does It Work?
Go to the Store and get the free bundle "Subscription to the T21". Enter the game every day while the subscription is active and claim your reward: 10 parts of the certificate for the T21. On some days of the subscription, you'll also receive Orders. Complete them to get even more parts of the certificate! Don't miss a single day of the 10-day subscription to collect 200 parts of the certificate, combine them in your Storage, and make this American Collector light tank yours!
You can collect your rewards when you enter the game or in your Storage. Parts of the certificate and Orders are not added for days missed. Each Order is available for 24 hours and activates automatically. If you don't complete it within the allocated time, you'll receive 10 parts of the certificate.
What's the Tank Like?
The Т21 is quite a troublemaker. Its favorite tactic is to lurk in bushes until a target appears, take a nice clean shot, and change positions before the baffled enemy realizes where the attack came from. The T21 also loves giving its allies sightseeing tours from the hills. Thanks to its excellent view range, teammates can enjoy the most thrilling attraction—enemy vehicles. The good gun depression and elevation will help you catch any target with ease. Just don't forget to retreat to cover after firing. Lead your team to victory in the daring Т21!

Let's Go to the Netherlands

Updated Battle Results
The time has come to adjust the display of battle results. Cutting to the chase, they now look awesome and more informative! There are three screens, each of them showing your tank at its finest, along with detailed personal, economic, and team results.
Hints for Additional Mechanics
There are already many special tank mechanics in the game. And even more will be available as time goes on. To make it clear how they work, we're going to add hints to the Brief Characteristics menu. The new update will introduce hints for Tracer Shells (T-100 LT and Object 84) and Dynamic Armor (Titan H-N). We will gradually add info for other additional mechanics as well.
XP Multiplier Timer Reset
Users of iOS and Android mobile devices will be able to reset the timer of the XP multiplier for the first victory (x2 timer). The refresh timer and the watching ads button will appear near the Battle! button. Watch an ad and the x2 XP multiplier will refresh. It's a great way to research your dream tank faster!
Camouflage Rotation
The drop-dead gorgeous Galaxy and Shattered Flames camos were added to the camo selection menu. The Grandma's Gift, Starlight Night, and Evergreen camos will no longer be available for purchase.
Improvements and Fixed Bugs
The Bat.-Chatillon 25 t and its Musketeer camo, the ISU-152 and its Hunter camo, and the Cruiser II received better graphics.
An animation for receiving XP after a battle in a researchable tank was added. It shows your progress towards the next module.
The structure of the Soviet Tech Tree was improved.
The bug where the price under upgrade options was displayed in Elite XP (not in credits or gold) on the screen for accelerating crew skill training was fixed.
The bug where the sound of burning may have been missing after the tank was destroyed was fixed.
The bug where the corresponding sound of resources deduction was missing upon opening a container using credits/gold was fixed.
Various screens, descriptions, and notifications were improved.

Rating Battles in February
[previewyoutube="1CyN6LCP5is;full"] Important updates are coming to Rating Battles! Rating points can now be earned even if you're defeated or lost even if you win. But the primary aspects remain unchanged. From February 5 to February 28, you can progress through the leagues and collect cool rewards, including parts of the certificate for the Lorraine Fearless. And a warm place among the top ten players might as well become yours!
Changes to Rating Calculations
Giving your best in battle is now more important than ever! Even if your team loses, your rating can still improve. At the same time, if you show a lack of initiative in battle, your rating will drop even if your team wins. Let's see how it works.
The best player of the losing team can earn rating points as if they won. How is that possible? It's up to you and what you do in battle! The more active you are, the higher your chances of scoring points. Deal damage, spot foes, send enemies to their Garage, capture bases, and earn as much XP as possible in battles.
Only one member of the losing team can earn rating points.
The players of the winning team who remained idle in battle will have the same rating they would have had if their team lost. Taking useful actions in battle will help you avoid such a fate.
If there are several idle players on the winning team, each of them will receive a rating penalty.
Get the most out of each battle and get to the top of the rankings faster!

Rewards
Dance of the Tiger Event
[previewyoutube="3c0UflPIQ4I;full"] According to the Chinese calendar, the Tiger—the symbol of the upcoming lunar year—favors the bold and decisive. And that's you! It's also believed that this noble predator always generously rewards such warriors.
Which is true! From January 28 to February 7, participate in the Dance of the Tiger event, earn Coins for victories in Tier IV–X vehicles, and exchange them for cool rewards: Epic boosters, Premium Account, Lockbox Keys, an animated camouflage, a Legendary avatar, and the new Krupp-Steyr Waffenträger tank destroyer!
What Kind of Beast Is It?
Stealthy, extremely dangerous, and ideal for ambushes! The Steyr WT has everything an effective ambusher needs: small size and a powerful gun with a three-shell magazine and 660 HP of total damage.
However, there's a nuance: the Steyr WT's weak armor is unforgiving for battlefield mistakes, which makes this tank destroyer an easy target for enemy HE shells. So you better make sure to stay out of the enemy's sight. Instead, find cover and reel off your magazine at unsuspecting opponents! Then rush to a new comfortable position thanks to the Steyr WT's ability to accelerate to 50 km/h.
Good knowledge of maps is the key to success in the Krupp-Steyr Waffenträger. Shift quickly from cover to cover, provide fire support to allies, and feel at home among the top players by damage dealt!
When Does the Dance of the Tiger Event Take Place?
CIS: January 28, 8:00 (MSK) to February 7, 8:00 (MSK)
Europe: January 28, 13:00 (CET) to February 7, 13:00 (CET)
North America: January 28, 5:00 (PT) / 8:00 (ET) to February 7, 5:00 (PT) / 8:00 (ET)
APAC: January 28, 14:00 (UTC+8) to February 7, 14:00 (UTC+8)
The Soviet Tech Tree got a new branch of light tanks! In addition to an older tank that was moved there, it also received three new Tier VII, IX, and X vehicles. They're all fast, quick-firing, and well-concealed, while the Tier IX and X tanks feature a new spotting mechanic—Tracer Shells.
Balance Changes
This time, balance changes were made to Tier IX vehicles. For example, the Conqueror's turret will become stronger, the Škoda T 50'sdispersion and aiming time will decrease, and the T95 will be faster, but its reloading time will increase.
Rating Battle Changes
Great play should be rewarded, so, starting February, in special cases, the most effective player of the defeated team will be able to get rating points as if they won. At the same time, an inactive player from the winning team will be treated as if they lost: Their rating can drop. You'll be able to learn more about these changes to Rating Battles in the February article.
Certificates for XP
We changed how sorting occurs in Storage, and now certificates for x3 and x5 XP are displayed at the top of the list. This way, it will be more convenient to keep track of them. Moreover, we fixed the issue in the Store where it wasn't always clear which tank in a bundle the certificate for bonus XP could be used for.
Legendary Camouflage
Owners of the following three tanks will soon receive offers to buy Legendary camos. These camos are the wild Rhino for the M48A2 Räumpanzer, the mighty Champion for the Object 252U, and the daring Interceptor for the T-100 LT.
Container for Ads
The Store will feature a container that you'll be able to open once a day by watching two ads. Its rewards may include icongoldpart parts of the certificate for gold, icongoldboost Gold boosters, iconshards Splinters, the exclusive Sparkling Spotlight camo, and the Panther/M10. At the same time, the usual feature of receiving gold by watching ads will not change. This container is only available for mobile device users.
Improvements and Fixed Bugs
The Tiger II and its Savage camo, the KV-2 and its Menacing camo, the Skorpion G and its Stinging camo, and the 50TP prototyp received better graphics.
The Tankenstein's crew can no longer receive critical damage (which makes sense as a zombie tank can't have a crew).
The bug when the Precision Fire crew ability was activated in Realistic Battles was fixed.
Various screens, descriptions, and notifications were improved.
