Wargaming today announced the free-to-play multiplayer game World of Tanks will hold a special two day Beta event running on July 11 and 12, with players able to download the beta build beginning July 10.
All players taking part in the two day Beta event will receive special bonuses, including the Premium American Tier 3 M22 Locust light tank for logging into the game. Those players who already own the tank will receive, instead, 180,000 in silver, as well as one garage slot. Wargaming will also be giving players extra experience during the Beta testing period. Between the hours of 11:00 to 14:00 PST on July 11–12, all players who login and play will receive a 2x XP bonus on all battles and a 2x Battle Operation to be used later.
Finally, all players who download the game prior to its July 28 release date will receive at launch a free Premium light tank, the American tier II T1E6-X1, emblazoned with an exclusive World of Tanks shield emblem, as well as an exclusive camouflage.
