October 20th, 2025 – The iconic and fan-favorite Girls und Panzer universe shines once again in World of Tanks, this time introducing a fearless and high-spirited new team to the game - Saunders University High School. Saunders is known for its emphasis on teamwork, fair play, and an upbeat spirit, often approaching challenges with a positive and lighthearted attitude. Their trademark strength lies in large numbers and overwhelming firepower, supported by charismatic leadership that makes them one of the most recognizable schools in Sensha-Dō.
From October 20th to October 27th, tankers will have the opportunity to recruit four distinctive crew members from Saunders University High School, led by the charismatic Commander Kei. As the team’s spiritual pillar, Kei encourages her crew with extroverted energy and fair play, showing that victory is always sweetest when shared with laughter and fun. Each of Kei’s lines is voiced by the original Japanese actress, delivering an authentic experience.
Taking the spotlight is the Tier VI Sherman Firefly Saunders, an American medium tank with authentic styling that faithfully recreates its appearance from the anime series. Alongside the new tank, Commanders can customize their vehicles with the all-season Saunders University High School 2D Style, letting them showcase the flair of one of most lively schools.
Throughout the event, players can take on special missions to earn GuP Tokens, which can be redeemed in the Girls und Panzer Event Store for customization items such as voiced Commanders, 2D styles, decals, emblems, and more. The lineup includes brand-new content from Saunders University High School alongside established favorites from Oarai Girls' High School, St. Gloriana, Kuromorimine, and Jatkosota HS. The fully adjustable Oarai 2D Style makes its return, giving tankers the freedom to mix and match elements for a truly personalized design.
