The next milestone in the history of World of Tanks has been reached: Now there are already over 75 million accounts filling the database of wargaming.net, further underscoring the popularity of the tactical MMO shooter.
However, this only indicates a certain degree of activity, as registered user accounts do not say much about actual activity – nowadays, almost every Free to Play title boasts such data, even if they do not come close to 75 million.
But here, the developer has a response ready and shows a more than considerable number: According to wargaming, up to 1 million players are playing simultaneously worldwide on all servers! The number of active players is likely much higher than the figure mentioned here. So, behind the data are more than just dead accounts.
Update 8.10 brings graphical improvements and more
In addition to this news, which is particularly pleasing for the operators, players have also been able to experience a little Christmas surprise just before the holidays.
With the update that comes with the version number 8.10, the visual quality of the tank MMO has been elevated to a higher level. You can best appreciate the graphical improvements in the following video, particularly highlighting the polished lighting effects:
Yes, these are changes that enrich the game atmospherically – the eye eats too, after all 😉 Besides the development on the surface, starting with this extensive update, Japan, the “Land of the Rising Sun,” also plays a role on the battlefields. 13 Japanese tanks and a suitable tech tree make the Asians a serious alternative in vehicle selection.
Speaking of battlefield: Not only various tanks and a tech tree now represent Japan, but also a newly introduced terrain of 1,000,000 sqm that features a village amidst Japanese landscapes and, according to the creators, offers various tactical possibilities.
Additionally, there are a few other minor changes, but these changes are among the most significant.
Have fun in WoT!
