World of Tanks Blitz set to launch Reforged update, bringing the hit tank sim into Unreal Engine 5

Author : Aria Update:Mar 18,2025

World of Tanks Blitz is getting a massive upgrade—a complete overhaul powered by Unreal Engine 5! This isn't just a temporary event or cosmetic update; the entire game is being rebuilt from the ground up.

The first Ultra test begins January 24th, offering players a sneak peek at the stunning visual improvements. Expect revamped commanders, maps, and graphics so polished, you'll forget this game launched five years ago! Don't worry if you miss the initial test; more will follow in the coming weeks.

The Reforged update promises not only enhanced visuals but also updated physics and other technical improvements, bringing World of Tanks Blitz closer to its console counterpart. Sign up for early access on the official website!

The Unreal Engine 5 Upgrade: A Double-Edged Sword?

The move to UE5 presents a fascinating trade-off. While the graphical improvements are undeniable, there's a potential performance impact for players using lower-end devices. However, given WoT Blitz's cross-platform nature, the developers likely prioritized optimization for a wide range of hardware. Whether the visual enhancements outweigh any performance compromises remains to be seen.

Thinking about joining the battle? This update might be the perfect time! Before you dive in, check out our list of World of Tanks Blitz codes to give yourself a head start.
