Backwards compatibility allows tankers to boost their battles to the next level
November 18, 2020 — World of Tanks Console is proud to announce that its popular team-based tank combat rolls out on PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X/S thanks to full backwards compatibility – bringing its award-winning tank warfare into the future of gaming.
With faster load times, more stable and higher frame rates, higher resolution and better input latency – tankers will be able to vanquish their foes more clearly than ever, using the power of next-gen machines to rule the battlefield.
With over 20 million players currently on PlayStation®4 and Xbox One, as well as cross-platform gameplay in place since the summer, World of Tanks Console will be offering day one backwards compatibility for next generation consoles across the world.
This means that tankers can continue their quest for domination on Sony and Microsoft’s newest hardware, resuming their personal account journey from former console generations and retaining their well-earned achievements, or simply coming back and reviving their old account after waiting for the next generation consoles to launch.
Creative Director TJ Wagner said:
