Online games can't ignore themed events and holidays, as this helps to increase the interest of players. And World of Tanks decided not only to organise a New Year's event, but also to invite a famous actor to participate in it.

Here's What We Know

World action star Jason Statham will be the ambassador of this year's New Year's Eve 2025 event in World of Tanks.

The hero of such blockbusters as Meg, The Transporter and The Fast and the Furious, Statham will present his rugged personality and catchphrases during the event in World of Tanks, greeting and giving gifts to the "tankers".

The New Year's Eve 2025 offensive starts on 6 December and ends on 13 January 2025.

The game's favourite holiday hangar has been updated. In it, players will have access to special tasks and combat missions to receive rewards from Jason Statham.

Wargaming also showed a themed trailer where Santa is surrounded by a gang of bad guys, but everything suddenly changes when he is accidentally punched in the face during a fight scene. This is where his stunt double will appear: film star Jason Statham.
