World of Tanks Blitz 1.8 Update Releasing Later Today In All Regions

World of Tanks Blitz, the free to play entry of the series now available on the App Store in all regions, is going to receive a new update very soon.

Update 1.8, which will be released later today in all regions, is going to introduce plenty of the new content to the game such as Battle Missions and the Demo Account System, which will allow players to play the game without having to create a full account. Those who have tried the game previously and found it difficult to understand its mechanics will also be happy to know that a Tutorial Mode is also getting included with the update.

Here are the full patch notes for the World of Tanks Blitz 1.8.0 update.
