The Winter Challenge Rolls Out!

Subtitles in our supported languages are also available by clicking on the icon in the bottom-right corner.

 

Winter is coming, so we’re kickstarting a new challenge to keep you warm. The grand reward for completing this challenge fully is a brand-new Premium Tier VIII — the Soviet tank destroyer, the SU-130PM.

The Winter Challenge’s concept will be familiar to those of you who took part in the British Challenge a few months ago that offered up the Caernarvon AX to dedicated players.

Unlike the British Challenge, however, you have 10 days instead of 14. With that taken into account, all missions are available from the start with conditions adjusted to fit the shorter timeframe.

Get ready to take on Random Battles to earn everything the Winter Challenge has to offer. In addition to the SU-130PM with a unique style, you can earn Credits, Personal Reserves, and Directives!

How It Works

The Winter Challenge involves completing 10 consecutive stages with two ways to earn rewards.

  • Endurance race: It’s all about earning that vital commodity: XP! Each stage requires you to earn a certain amount of XP in vehicles Tier VI or higher, and the hard work only pays off if you are one of the top 10 XP earners on your team — win or lose. This part of the challenge is for those who can succeed through sheer persistence!
  • Ramp up the challenge: These are more complex tasks that can only be completed in Tier X machines. If you’ve got the skills, these objects will be quicker to complete, but they’re harder than they look at first glance.

Fast Track

If you find you’re running out of time to complete the missions, the tank destroyer will be available in the Premium Shop with a 10% discount for each stage you’ve completed. For example, completing 7 of 10 stages knocks 70% off the price.

IMPORTANT: Purchasing the bundle gives you the full pack of rewards for the missions not completed and automatically checks all unfinished event battle missions as completed. So you won’t be able to access them once you have the bundle.

 

"Late Purchase" Period

If you miss it, don't worry: the SU-130PM will be on sale until Thursday, Dec. 13, 06:00 PT | 08:00 CT | 09:00 ET — that's your last chance to get this tank destroyer! The more Winter Challenge missions you complete, the better your discount will be.
