Roll Out Tank you very much. Rolling onto GeForce NOW, World of Tanks 2.0 is a multiplayer online action game that puts players in command of massive, legendary tanks for team-based battles across historic arenas.

The 2.0 release amps up the tank warfare with revamped sounds, user interfaces and battle mechanics, as well as new Tier XI vehicles . Choose among favorite armored vehicles, strategize with the squad and outmaneuver opponents in fast-paced skirmishes. Whether diving into solo showdowns or coordinating all-out assaults, every match is packed with explosive action.
