Wargaming turns 20 this year, and they have already announced a huge event to celebrate it with many rewards and new missions. However, the company was not always that successful. They owe their success to their most popular video game, World of Tanks. Wargaming highlighted this fact today through one of their announcements.
Twenty years ago, Wargaming was founded by Victor Kislyi. The company was created in Minsk, Belarus and took its start from a small game studio. They tried hard and finally succeeded in becoming one of the leading free-to-play game developers and publishers.
At first, the company focused on turn-based and real-time strategy games. However, in 2009 they switched to developing free-to-play online action games. Wargaming’s first video game was called DBA Online. It was the digital version of a miniature tabletop rule set called De Bellis Antiquitatis. The company runs its games on all types of consoles. They are also playable on PC and mobiles.
When World of Tanks was developed, everything changed for the Wargaming company. The game became one of the most popular ones in the world. It still has a dedicated community of players and continues going strong. Apart from the event that has already started, they honored that turning point in their history in their 20th-anniversary announcement, where they highlighted the fact that World of Tanks was a key milestone and the ultimate turning point in the company’s history.
Furthermore, they accompanied this beautiful announcement with a video that shows Wargaming’s progress throughout the years. It is quite magnificent to watch the entire growth of the company that brought you the unique World of Tanks game. You can take a look at it yourselves and see their journey.
Do not forget the new prizes, missions, and discounts coming to World of Tanks to celebrate Wargaming’s 20 years. They are live now.
