Get ready for Update 1.20.1 for World of Tanks, which brings exciting new features such as an improved crew perk system, a new line of Japanese tank destroyers, and the Season of the Purple Griffin in Storm Assault! Additionally, in May, you can experience random events and dynamic protection in the Recon Mission, customize your collection function in the Battle Pass, and purchase new garage slots with credits.
Random events and dynamic protection in the Recon Mission
In May, the Recon Mission starts with two interesting mechanics: random events and dynamic protection. These offer you a fresh player experience and open up new tactical possibilities on the battlefield.
Random Events: New Challenges on Four Maps
Random events occur at certain times and in certain areas of four maps: Safe Haven, Ruinberg, Prokhorovka, and Himmelsdorf. They change the environment around you and the combat situation on the battlefield, so you always have to be on guard and adapt your strategy.
Dynamic Protection: Use Moving Objects
Dynamic protection refers to various moving objects (such as shipping containers, concrete blocks, etc.) that you can use to protect yourself from enemy fire. This allows you to effectively defend your tank and surprise the enemy.
Improved Crew Perk System: More Flexibility and Control
With update 1.20.1, the improved crew perk system makes all perks immediately available when you start training. The main qualification level now affects almost all perks (except Brothers in Arms). The higher it is, the stronger the perk effect - giving you more control over your crew's abilities.
In addition, there is no longer an XP penalty when you end a battle with injured crew members, and the crew interface has been made more user-friendly.
New Line of Japanese Tank Destroyers: Menacing Firepower
Six new Japanese tank destroyers are ready for battle! All vehicles have high-caliber guns that deal good damage per shot. The massive but agile Japanese TDs are designed to support the team from the second line of fire or support heavy tanks at the front. A great addition for all fans of World of Tanks!
Assault: Season of the Purple Griffin
The Assault game mode returns with the Season of the Purple Griffin and special status rewards! It brings several gameplay improvements, including revised vehicle role abilities, two special combat modifiers, and two additions to the map pool: Airfield and Glacier.
Battle Pass Collection: Tell Your Own Story
The Battle Pass Collection tells the exciting background stories of the heroes of the season. This story is told through the descriptions of various in-game goodies (such as crew members, progressive and 2D styles and badges) that you collect as base and enhanced rewards. These items are the elements of the collection feature. Simply complete the Battle Pass as usual to complete them!
Conclusion: Lots of New Features in Update 1.20.1
Update 1.20.1 for World of Tanks offers numerous exciting new features that make the gameplay even more varied. Try out the improved crew perk system, fight with the new Japanese tank destroyers, and get ready to experience random events and dynamic protection in the May Scavenger Hunt! Good luck, commanders!
