All Commanders automatically receive rewards from the Free Rewards path. If, at any point in the season, you want to get a Season Pass or Ultimate Season Pass, you’ll also receive the rewards you’ve earned up to your current stage.

Find all the reward details broken down by stage in the game’s “Seasons” tab. Once there, you can also check the season Challenges available. Finish these to receive the points you need to complete each of the season’s 100 stages.

Season Vehicles

This season’s Premium tank rewards are no mere metal machines. They’re irrepressible beasts waiting for you to bring them into battle to unleash hell!

They include the leKpz M 41 90 mm, which all tankers receive after completing Stage 100. This fast-moving light tank is the clean, non-Monster Tank version of the Höllenhund. Its mobility and quick hull and turret rotations speeds make a top choice for executing one of our favorite maneuvers for the Halloween season: the circle of death.

leKpz M 41 90 mm

If you already have these vehicles, then you’ll receive their Silver value as compensation once you complete their associated stages:

You can claim and tame these beasts … but more will still be waiting to spill forth from the shadows. Don’t miss this season’s two new Premium tanks: a strong all-rounder medium tank for Cold War mode, and an autocannon-equipped light tank for World War II mode. Read on to learn more … if you dare!

M-55S

  • Mode: Cold War
  • Affiliation: Independent
  • Era: Escalation (Era 2)
  • Class: Medium Tank
M-55S Render

Call it a shapeshifter of sorts: like many medium tanks, the M-55S is able to adapt as the battle demands.

The bricks of ERA on its turret and upper hull reduce the effective penetration of kinetic shells and provide excellent protect against HE splash damage, so get out there and brawl if needed. But know that this tank also possesses notable mobility and a trustworthy 105mm gun for the firepower you need to lead the assault.

Vz. 68 Squall

  • Mode: World War II
  • Nation: Czechoslovakia
  • Era: Tier VIII
  • Class: Light Tank
Vz 68 Squall Render

It moves with the stealth of a spectre before it attacks with the relentless strength of a storm. The Vz. 68 Squall has the mobility and concealment values to serve as a scout; it also mounts a dual 50mm autocannon with a high rate of fire to tear enemy tanks apart once it finds them.

Please note that this tank’s weapon cannot cause crew member damage to enemies! Instead, this is a fast-firing weapon made to shred enemy armor bit by bit. Focus on lightly armored opponents or target your opponents’ sides and rear, open fire, and don’t let up until they give up.

Season Commanders

Don’t look away. Stare into the darkness. There you will be met by the glare of eyes that burn with the curse of arcane knowledge. Some call the wizard you’ll see a madman. Others say he’s a useful ally.

All that’s known for certain is that his name is Killgorvious, and he is the 2D Standard Commander that you can earn by completing Stage 75 on the Free Rewards path.

As a Standard Commander, Killgorvious will start with one open Skill slot and earn Commander XP at the standard rate. As a wizard, he’ll sear all the bitter truths about the workings of the universe into your enemies’ souls.*

(*Not an actual game mechanic.)

Killgorvious 2D Standard Commander

For those who prefer a more savage approach to battle, look no further than the Commander you’ll receive immediately upon purchase of a Dark Realm Ultimate Season Pass: Warwolf.

As a Hero Commander, Warwolf will start with three open Skill slots and will earn Commander XP at a +30% bonus rate. Are you ready to fight tooth and claw for victory?

Warwolf 3D Hero Commander - Horizontal Render

Warwolf will be howling to join you in battle as soon as you purchase your Ultimate Season Pass. Head over to the Commanders’ tab to customize him with your preferred Skills. Please note that he does NOT come with custom voiceover.

Season Stage Buyouts

Use Gold to skip or buyout stages and reach your rewards more quickly. And it works whether you have a pass or not, too!

Here’s how to do it:

  • Highlight the stage you want to skip and press A (Xbox) or X (PS) to skip the Stage.
  • You can skip one, multiple, or all stages. The Gold cost will be based on how many stages are being skipped.

Stage buyouts are 250 Gold per stage. There will be NO season overtime or opportunity to skip stages after December 1.
