Wargaming heeft gisteren een nieuwe update uitgerold voor de free-to-play game World of Tanks en deze update pakt een hoop zaken aan. De specifiek details daarover tref je hieronder in de changelog aan.

Interessanter is dat de game met deze update aanzienlijk is uitgebreid, want er zijn namelijk maar liefst zeven nieuwe maps aan het geheel toegevoegd. Deze maps zijn: Snow, Fjords, North West, Sacred Valley, Sacred Valley – War!, Serene Coast en Swamp.

Slechts enkele weken na de release voorziet Wargaming de game al van een flinke uitbreiding en dat is voor fanatieke spelers natuurlijk uitstekend nieuws. De update is op de PlayStation 4 versie 1.05 en deze weegt in totaal 2GB.
