Wargaming is a studio that has focused on the realistic simulation of military vehicle battles. Tanks, planes, submarines. Nothing escapes them and everything goes well for them. That’s why we shouldn’t be surprised that their new title, World of Tanks: HEAT, has been launched with great interest from the public. And it has shown that it is possible to create a different tank game: one that resembles, at least a little, great online multiplayer games like Overwatch or Marvel Rivals.
A different game
The most surprising thing about World of Tanks: HEAT is that it is a hero shooter in the form of a battleship game. This means that each of our agents has special abilities and differentiated roles, allowing us to customize our match. Making the game more visually appealing and accessible.
This, in addition, is compounded by the fact that the game has gained in spectacularity compared to its older brother, World of Tanks. The tanks are faster and lighter, more powerful, and the actions are more spectacular. Everything is more eye-catching and looks more impossible in a simulator like the game that turned Wargaming into a superpower in the video game industry. Although it never becomes simple or mindless: it still requires strategy, tactics, and skill.
This means that the game is slightly more complex than any hero shooter on the market. This is neither Overwatch nor Marvel Rivals, although it resembles them in spectacle, pace, and skill management. It requires much more teamwork and much more awareness, making it a deeper and more complex game, making it perfect for those who want a similar experience, but deeper.
World of Tanks: HEAT is the perfect game for those who want to take a step further in hero shooters. Not being as slow, methodical, and punishing as World of Tanks, nor as light and chaotic as traditional hero shooters, the virtue of World of Tanks: HEAT is having introduced the lightness and dynamism of hero shooters into the World of Tanks universe. So if you like tanks and are already tired of Overwatch, World of Tanks: HEAT could very well be your game.
