NEW: E 65 Zwilling – Double the Trouble

In 1942, the German military put forth a concept for a series of tank designs that incorporated standardized components. The designs in the Entwicklung series, or E series, were intended to be less complex than those of earlier armored vehicles, which would allow the tanks to be produced at a faster rate.

The end of World War II led to the termination of any development work on the E series. But as we approach the end of 2025, we’re bringing you a console vehicle inspired by that piece of military history.

Introducing the game’s first German dual-barrel tank, the German Tier VIII E 65 Zwilling Heavy Tank, and its 2025 Black Friday Skin (with earn bonuses)!

Gameplay Tips

As a dual-barrel vehicle, the E 65 Zwilling has two guns mounted to its turret. This gives you the choice between two firing modes: Single Fire (firing one gun at a time and advancing to the next gun automatically, though you can also swap guns manually), or Double Shot (firing both guns at the same time).

Whichever firing mode you choose, you’ll be hitting your enemies hard, as each gun is a massive 8,8 cm cannon capable of over 2,200 DPM.

It’s not all about offense, however! The E 65 Zwilling also has a well-protected turret and sturdy, sloped frontal hull armor to make it the strong defender against same-tier enemies that you’d expect a German heavy tank to be.

Put the sloped front hull to work by heading to the frontline and supporting your team there. Do your best to keep the front of the tank pointed toward enemies!
Use this tank’s excellent gun depression and robust turret armor to reinforce your team from hull-down positions.
Pay attention to the proximity of your enemies and switch between firing modes to unleash the heaviest fire when it counts.
