When World of Tanks first came to the Xbox 360, the concept of free-to-play gaming on a console was nearly unheard of. But after a year of milestones, updates, community growth, and relentless armored combat, World of Tanks has blasted its way into the spotlight and the living rooms of aspiring Xbox tank commanders worldwide.

With over 5 million downloads across nearly 150 countries, World of Tanks on Xbox 360 is a global success.
