Despite more than a decade in operation and the seemingly narrow scope of competitive matches between teams operating vintage tanks,World of Tanksis still going strong. Back in 2011, developer Wargaming saw an underserved market of players looking for accessiblegames with great tank combat, where the word “tank” referred to an actual armored vehicle, and not a beefy, defensive character.World of Tanksmanaged to thread the needle between hardcore simulation games and balance-focused pick-up-and-play live service titles, attracting millions of players in the process and launching a smaller-scale mobile and PC spin-off calledWorld of Tanks Blitz.
Now the publisher is riding high on that success, celebrating the franchise with the Wargaming Publisher Weekend event on Steam. As part of the promotion, players can claim a specialSmart Progress Pack DLC forWorld of Tanks Blitzfor free. The promo will last until the end of the Publisher Weekend on July 03, 2025 and covers the PC edition ofWorld of TanksandWorld of Tanks Blitz.
World of Tanks Blitz Free DLC Available Until February 27
The Smart Progress Pack DLC available as part of the promotion doesn’t include a full playable vehicle, but it does include a useful cosmetic update in the form of the rare Breakthrough camouflage skin, which was originally released to celebrate the addition ofWorld of Tanks Blitzto the Steam catalog. In keeping with the sometimes cheeky tone ofWorld of Tanksholiday eventsand crossovers, the Breakthrough camo features the Steam logo all over it, festooning any tank that uses it in Steam platform branding.
Alongside the skin, the Smart Progress Pack includes a large amount of credits and boosters for Combat, Free, and Crew XP, as well as credit earnings. The pack can be claimed once per account, and will make tuning up a newWorld of Tanks Blitzheavyor other vehicle much easier than trying to go without assistance.
The Wargaming Publisher Weekend event underscores the endurance ofWorld of Tanksand its spin-offs. In spite of a seemingly niche premise focused on armored warfare between differentWorld of Tanksnationsto the exclusion of all else, the game has resonated with a loyal contingent of players, ensuring attention and engagement for more than a decade.
