May 8, 2025 – World of Tanks Modern Armor is about to embark on a thrilling new chapter with its upcoming event, Valhalla, running from May 13 through June 2. This limited-time event invites players to experience the epic world of Viking lore, where legendary gods and goddesses descend to Midgard, calling on worthy champions to fight by their sides in a battle for glory and honor.

The journey, inspired by Norse mythology, includes at its core the Champions Path Challenge, where players pledge their loyalty to one of three gods: Thor, Loki, or Freyja. Once a god is chosen, tankers will receive that god’s 2D Standard Commander and a Flag Voucher tied to them. They must choose wisely — their decision is final and cannot be changed! From there, players will progress through Challenge stages by completing missions and earning special points. Each god offers a unique path to victory, with rewards such as Premium tanks, powerful 3D and 2D Commanders, thematic in-game items, discounts on special vehicles (including Gungnir, Odin’s exclusive vehicle), and more.

The following four thematic tanks, inspired by Norse gods, debut with the Valhalla event:

• Mjölnir: Power through battles in a tank designed for strength and speed, featuring Thor’s iconic hammer and Viking symbols.
• Lævateinn: An homage to Loki, it’s a tank that’s as elusive and unpredictable as the trickster god himself, with intricate designs and deceptive flair.
• Thrungva: Harness Freyja’s strength with a tank decked out in battle-ready war paint and designs inspired by her fierce warrior nature.
• Gungnir: Command a tank that embodies the wisdom and strength of Odin, designed as a no-nonsense Viking attack master.

Players will also have an opportunity to share the gods’ favors with their allies by sending “Valhalla Blessings,” gifting each other rewards based on Thor, Loki, and Freyja’s powers. Furthermore, tankers can demonstrate their might in the “Brawls of Valhalla,” a special 7v7 mode.

The development team at World of Tanks Modern Armor was inspired by Viking mythology’s deep narratives of gods, goddesses, and their mighty battles. According to Grant Wojciechowski, Lead Quest Designer, “We wanted to bring the rich stories of Viking mythology to life in a way that would let players not only fight for glory but feel like they were truly earning the favor of the gods.”

Andy Dorizas, Art Director, explained that the team struck a balance between the gritty realism of modern tanks and the fantastical elements of Viking myth. “We did a lot of research to ensure that our tanks embodied the spirit of the gods while maintaining that sense of power and awe,” he said.
