Wargaming is ready to rumble…literally…at this year’s PAX West. From September 2-5, a real life Panzer tank will be on hand with a bevy of items to crush. The assembled crowds will vote between two items to crush. The “winner”…if such a thing can be said of the soon-to-be-flattened item…is moved to a special carpet to meet the tank’s treads head on.

The Tank Museum in Britain will be celebrating the one hundredth anniversary of tanks in battle. Sponsored by Wargaming, the event will remember the Battle of Somme when the first British forces took tanks into battle on September 15, 1916. Trafalgar Square in London will host a British World War I tank for 1,100 hours on the anniversary.

Wargaming.net has announced that the WGL Gold Series Season 2016-2017 has begun. Season 1 will take place from August to October with Season 2 running from January to May.

Wargaming’s cross-platform game World of Tanks: Blitz has been updated with the new game mode, called Supremacy. As the name implies, teams battle for dominance on the newly reworked version of the Falls Creek map.

Over the past weekend, over 20,000 World of Tanks fans showed up at Tankfest 2016, a huge increase over last year’s 6,000. The event took place in the UK with folks coming in from all over Europe. Wargaming personnel were on hand as well, including Richard Cutland, the military historical specialist with the company.
