Wargaming makes serious games, but that doesn't mean they take themselves too seriously. In honor of the World Cup, they've created a temporary game mode that finally our two favorite activities - tank driving and soccer.
The World Football (read "football" as "soccer" here in the U.S.) Championship will be available between June 12 and July 13 and will take place on a reworked,grass-covered version of the Himmelsdorf map. Players will use special sport tanks to bat around a boulder-sized soccer ball and participants will receive a free special Tier 1 T-62A tank. Exceptional players will also score a "Football Player 2014" medal.
