'World Of Tanks' Soccer Mode Trailer, Join In On The World of Tanks Cup

In honor of the upcoming FIFA World Cup in Brazil, Wargaming's is introducing a special new mode for its massively popular World of Tanks free to play game: World Football Championship. That's right: tanks playing football! A World of Tanks Cup, if you will.

Destiny Gameplay Trailer Shows Off The Next Gen Goods

From tomorrow, June 12 until July 13, players will have access to this all new game mode, which includes a special tank designed specifically for the game mode, new achievements and all new team based, football gameplay. You drive around a football field, in your giant tank, and kick a ball around like some sort of robotic American Gladiator.

The World Football Championship mode features 7-minute 3 vs 3 team battles on a reworked version of Himmelsdorf which has been transformed into a football field. The objective is to score a goal using vehicles and shells and to defend their own goal from enemy players. The first team to 3 points, wins.

World of Tanks Blitz Release Date Announced

The only tank available in the new mode is the custom created Tier 1 T-62A Sport that will be given to all registered players for free.

Tankers will also get the "Football Player 2014" medal, awarded for exceptional performance in the new mode and will be able to earn Experience points by completing special missions.

Now talk about synergy! Tanks come in, bulldoze through a country and leave it in ruins, as does FIFA. It's a match made in heaven. It is still a brilliant cross-promotion and goes to show you that Wargaming, based in Europe, is not afraid to latch onto the zeitgeist and think outside of the box when it comes to creating new modes that will suck players in. Football fever is about to overtake the world. Might as well get in on that action.
