World of Tanks Blitz teams up with UFC fighter Jan Blachowicz to celebrate 11th anniversary

World of Tanks Blitz is celebrating a major milestone—its 11th anniversary! To mark the occasion, Wargaming has rolled out a rather unusual promotional campaign featuring none other than UFC light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz. While it may seem like an odd pairing at first glance, the collaboration actually makes sense when you consider the intense, battle-ready mindset shared between MMA fighters and tank commanders.

Jan Blachowicz, known for his professionalism inside the octagon and his down-to-earth personality outside of it, brings a unique charm to the celebration. His appearance in a quirky 30-second ad sees him on what can only be described as a date—with a tank—commemorating their 11th "anniversary." It's a surreal, slightly awkward, yet oddly entertaining concept that blends humor with a touch of absurdity. Whether it's genius marketing or just bizarre fun, one thing’s certain—it's worth watching.

But beyond the laughs, there's real value for players who log in before July 6th. As part of the anniversary event, logging in grants you a special Festive Container. The contents vary depending on how long you've been playing—longtime veterans get the best rewards, which might leave newer players feeling left out, but it's a fair way to honor loyalty.

Free Tanks & Exclusive Rewards

That’s not all, either. There are several time-based login and play events offering free high-tier tanks and exclusive cosmetic items:

• June 20 – July 4: Log in to claim the powerful Tiger-Maus tank.
• June 26 – July 13: Play during this window to unlock the Turbo Collector tank, complete with the Firestorm Legendary camo scheme. (We’ll pretend it’s inspired by Robot Wars’ iconic flipper bots.)
• Event Path: For those willing to go the extra mile, completing in-game tasks adds the Tier VIII Bisonte C45 tank to your collection.

Wargaming promises even more surprises ahead, so staying active during the event period is definitely worthwhile. If you're new to the game or thinking about coming back, now’s the perfect time to jump in and enjoy some of the best content the game has to offer—all while collecting top-tier vehicles and commemorative cosmetics.

World of Tanks Blitz is available for free on both the App Store and Google Play, featuring optional in-app purchases. If Jan Blachowicz’s tank-themed antics have sparked your interest, [ttpp] simply download the game using the official links below to start your armored adventure today.
