Officials have pointed out that while the story background of Expedition VIII is extremely novel (at least for players who have not been exposed to Warhammer 40,000), the core mechanics are still not far from the past. Players can earn Tank Expedition Points and progress through the progression stages by driving their Tier VI–X vehicles and performing at their best in random battles (excluding major battles). Players can also drive vehicles of any tier to complete daily quests and earn chariot expedition points. The core vehicles of Season VIII include the E 100, Object 430U and STB-1.
During Season VIII, the Warhammer 40,000 elements of the chariot expedition pack will also be available. The pack includes unique 2D customization elements, a cool 3D style exclusive to the Bat.-Châtillon 25 t, and the devout battle nun of the Martyr Sisters. Natalestra Aspes” as a crew member.
World of Tanks Season VIII will be open all the way to the end of August.
