World Of Tanks Gives Out New Year’s Gifts

Want more? Man, that’s getting a little greedy, but you can snag more swag by entering a bonus gift code.

Wargaming has something else in the works too: an official e-magazine called “Let’s Battle” that is intended to be “your comprehensive source for all things Wargaming.” Look for it on iOS and Android very soon.
