Wargaming has announced that World of Tanks is now available globally on Xbox One, intended to fully harnesses the power of the console and bring a world first to gamers with cross-platform play and saved games between the Xbox One and Xbox 360 versions of the game. With the addition of enhanced graphics and a new PvE mode, the "new generation of tank warfare" is here.
Denny Thorley, SVP of product development, Wargaming:
“Across all platforms, World of Tanks has one of the most dedicated online communities of players and we are expanding that community as we break new ground with this revolutionary cross-platform play functionality on consoles. With this technological innovation we are able to bridge the battle between Xbox One and Xbox 360 tankers, and we’re excited to offer players their first-ever opportunity to play across the two, together and seamlessly.”
World of Tanks cross-platform gameplay delivers another innovation with voice chat between platforms and shared achievements through a single Xbox Live account. The game also ramps up the combat with enhanced graphics and lingering battle damage thanks to the heightened Havok damage physics.
There's also the debut of the all-new “Proving Grounds” PVE mode, providing the perfect entry point for new tankers and an excellent practice arena for existing tankers. Finally, players will be able to share every glorious victory via the full slate of social and streaming support offered on the Xbox One platform.
