World of Tanks Blitz set to launch Reforged update, bringing the hit tank sim into Unreal Engine 5

World of Tanks Blitz is undergoing a significant transformation! This isn't a temporary cosmetic update or collaboration; the entire game is being rebuilt using Unreal Engine 5!

The first Ultra test, commencing January 24th, will showcase the revamped visuals and gameplay. Players can expect overhauled commanders, maps, and dramatically improved graphics, making the five-year-old game look brand new. Multiple test periods are planned in the coming weeks for broader participation.

The "Reforged" update promises enhanced physics and other technical improvements, bringing the mobile title closer to its PC counterpart. Sign up for early access via the official website!

Performance Considerations:

The Unreal Engine 5 upgrade presents a double-edged sword. While graphical fidelity improves significantly, there's potential for performance issues on lower-end devices. However, given the game's cross-platform nature, developers are likely to have optimized for a wide range of hardware. The overall impact on gameplay remains to be seen.
