Carmilla returns to feast with a new Skin and VO, plus a new tank of her own. But the new Van Helsing Commander and Monsterjager tank are prepared to stop her!
Make your choice, Commander. Will you stand strong against the shadows … or give in to the darkness?
Halloween returns to the game starting October 15th, and this year, the ageless battle between vampire and vampire hunter unfolds across the battlefield!
In true ritualistic annual fashion, we have two new Monster Tanks for you this year, along with 3D Hero Commanders who will narrate your epic battles with custom voiceover.
And just like every Monster Tank, this year’s new offerings feature special Awakened powers that reveal themselves in the Monster Mash game mode, coming this year on October 22nd.
No time to delay. We’ve deciphered all the arcane texts available. Peruse our summaries below to learn more!
Halloween 2024 3D Commanders: Carmilla and Van Helsing
The Carmilla 3D Hero Commander arrived in the game in 2021. Since then, the fearsome vampire has stalked these grounds, ever in search of more prey.
This year, however, terror takes a new turn, as Carmilla reveals the depths of her bloodlust with all-new custom voiceover and the new “Unveiled” Commander Skin!
“This will be a battle I can sink my teeth into.”
(If you already own a Carmilla 3D Hero Commander, you’ll find her automatically updated with her new voiceover. You’ll also be able to purchase her Skin from the Commander customization reel.)
But a menace cannot remain unchecked for long. Arriving like a ray of sunlight to purge fear from the hearts of tankers everywhere is the new Van Helsing 3D Hero Commander, who comes with his own custom voiceover!
“Keep your heads, hunters, and pray the vampires lose theirs.”
As Hero Commanders, both Carmilla and Van Helsing will start with three open Skill slots, for you to customize and make them into figures of legend, and will earn Commander XP at a +30% bonus rate.
New Vehicle: Night Stalker
- Mode: World War II
- Tier: IX
- Nation: U.S.A.
- Class: Tank Destroyer
Like a hunter, Carmilla’s vehicle of choice prowls the land, sweeping low across the ground in search of lesser beings whose senses the darkness has dulled. It seizes its prey in its sight. And when the hunter is ready… it feeds, its weapons destroying its victim’s resistance like two fangs piercing flesh.
Gameplay Tips
- Use Night Stalker’s mobility to frighten your enemies as a ghastly assault vehicle.
- Position yourself to take advantage of this tank's strong frontal armor and well-sloped panels. These will help you deflect incoming rounds.
- Pierce the enemy’s
skinarmor with your dual 105mm rocket guns, which have a six-round clip (three per barrel). The high penetration values of your rockets will make mincemeat out of your opponents.

- Nation: U.S.A

Awakened Power: Bloodlust
With the Bloodlust ability, imagine yourself as a vampire getting stronger as it drinks its victim's blood. Once you fill Night Stalker’s Bloodlust meter, you can activate Bloodlust mode and enter a heightened state in which your tank is more effective and gains enhanced vision.
- This is the baseline state in which you fill your Bloodlust meter.
- Your meter will passively fill over time to 66.6%. Yes, that is the actual value.
- Damaging tanks will help fill your meter more.
- Destroying a tank will instantly fill your meter and unlock the Bloodlust Enhanced state.
- Your tank fires in Single Fire mode.
- Once your Bloodlust meter is full, you can active its power by pressing left on the D-pad.
- Bloodlust lasts for 20 seconds.
- When you activate Bloodlust:
- Bats swarm around your tank, and your tank visibly glows with a deadly red glow!
- Enhanced vision activates, making enemies much easier to see. This will also highlight players playing the Awakened Revenant Kraft’s Panther!
- Your tank fires in Double Shot mode, shooting from both barrels at the same time.
- All of your tank’s stats are heightened.
- Bloodlust Enhanced: If you destroy a tank prior to activating Bloodlust, you’ll receive an additional performance boost while in the Bloodlust State.
- When Bloodlust ends, you enter a Cooldown period.
- Cooldown lasts for 10 seconds.
- While in Cooldown, your meter will not charge over time.
- Doing damage will not fill your meter.
- Destroying a tank will bypass your Cooldown, instantly fill your meter, and unlock the Bloodlust Enhanced state.
- Your tank fires in Single Fire mode.

“To combat the bloodsucking menace that assails us, let us fortify such vehicles as we command with twice as much firepower as we have used before, that this beast might succumb to our glorious light!" - Abraham Van Helsing, Tank Commander
Gameplay Tips:
- Keep your wits about you! Your armor is thin, so a good strategy is essential for avoiding the attacks of battlefield demons.
- Once you’ve sighted your quarry, attack the beasts with a devastating rocket barrage! Your weapon is a 10-round, dual rocket-launching autocannon that can unleash all 10 rockets in just 1.8 seconds. Use it wisely.
- These rockets are forged out of the finest monster-hunting materials. They’re designed to pierce even the most heavily armored beast that Monsterjager comes across, with 450mm of penetration.
