warthunder.com/en/news/5061-news-war-thunder-to-be-released-on-xbox-one-and-xbox-one-x-en“Our players have asked us many times about the possibility of transferring War Thunder to the Xbox One, and we started preparing to do so some time ago. Recently, we came to an agreement with Microsoft regarding the possibility of running the game on their console, and today, we are happy to share this great news with you!” - Anton Yudintsev, CEO of Gaijin Entertainment I'm actually quite hyped for this, but I hope you can transfer your progress from PC, because it doesn't look like it'll be cross-platform like it is with the PS4 and PC.

Hope it's sooner rather than later, WoT bores me at the mo. And I'm even thinking of getting a PS4 for Armoured Warfare.

This has me excited, I haven't played much of the game on PC, but it looks to be pretty unique and challenging to play.
It's also pretty funny how the WG mods on the other forum are deleting the War Thunder topics as fast as they can. Apparently they don't want to lose their monopoly on Xbox and have more players leave. They can't get away with pulling obnoxious BS now and say "Oh well, deal with it" without risking losing players.

WG has always killed any War Thunder topic as quickly as possible, even when it was only on PC and PS4 and even before WoT was even on PS4 as well. Now War Thunder's on Xbox it'll really put the shits up WG. |

The devs said they are happy to have competition when asked about Armored Warfare and War Thunder on PS4 on the last dev stream, I guess we'll see if they actually try to get better, or stay on this downhill slope. |

The devs said they are happy to have competition when asked about Armored Warfare and War Thunder on PS4 on the last dev stream, I guess we'll see if they actually try to get better, or stay on this downhill slope. Even without competition from their genre their game looks pretty terrible, at this point I reckon it'll damage them pretty badly. If War Thunder or Armoured Warfare had come to Xbox in, say, the first year-ish of WoT being on the Xbox, then it wouldn't go so badly, because they'd be newer and the game was changing fairly often and the playerbase was reasonably malleable. Now it's been out for five years with no competition, so I'd say that World of Tanks is going to get a bit of a savaging on Console now. It's not going to die, but it's probably not going to come out very well. They say competition breeds innovation, and WoT has had no competition and thus little innovation. The game is bloated and stagnant and won't adapt very well. |

I will be checking it out. If nothing else, it will confirm or debunk my current opinions of what is good and bad about WoT.

On a 3 day forum ban. Seen it mentioned they might release WT on the 7th to coincide with XONE release, but just a rumor at best. Would be a big kick in the teeth to WOT right before the Black Friday sale. |

That would be fucking epic!!! I suppose they don't need a Beta as they've done it on the PS4, I'm not even getting the cheap premium time for WoT because i think I'll be playing WT more especially as there's 3 games in one (sort of) |

I'd create a new account if it did happen, play the 50 games and do a big "in your face" thread. Followed by a "it's ok WG I can get you jobs at McDonalds, well except Max because he's not qualified enough" thread.

I'm pretty hyped too but I heard flying is a nightmare with a controller so I'll probably stay away from flying and just stick to tanking
