Evaluation

Armored Warfare is a free-to-play online tank MMO that has been running since its 2017 Steam launch and is clearly designed as an indefinitely supported live game. Development activity is extremely high as of today (August 19, 2026). The Force Recon Battle Path launched on May 19, 2026, bringing four new vehicles including the AMPV 30 (with a novel Loitering Recon Ammunition mechanic) and the Legendary-tier Reaper FSV. Subsequent patches on June 9 and June 18, 2026 added a new progression tank (Centurion Mk.11), an overhauled PvP map (Highwall), and balance adjustments. On July 21, 2026, the developer announced the Centauro 2 as a new Legendary vehicle. On July 24, 2026, the Type 625E was previewed as an upcoming premium vehicle. The current Battle Path (Force Recon) is still running, while the developer is simultaneously unveiling the next Battle Path — 'Into the West' (inspired by the Chinese Journey to the West epic). The ZBD-100 was announced on August 18, 2026, and the Type 100 CSV on August 19, 2026, with a third vehicle still to be revealed. The Escalation event, featuring an overhauled Legendary-difficulty PvE mission, went live August 11, 2026. On May 15, 2026, the developer explicitly stated they are "working on a lot of new content" and plan to release a roadmap once their plans are finalized, adding "we're nowhere near done." The game's structure — recurring Battle Path campaigns, seasonal events, expanding vehicle roster, and regular updates — is characteristic of an indefinitely supported online game with no endpoint in sight.

About this game

Armored Warfare is a free-to-play MMO with story-driven elements where you can engage in explosive online tank battles against players around the world or team up to defeat AI-controlled enemies.

Become a soldier of fortune and complete missions, from simple capture and escort objectives to complex story-driven PvE campaigns. Armored Warfare features deep, immersive lore where corporations rule the world, hiring mercenary groups such as yours to wage war.

Armored Warfare features large-scale battlefields full of armored vehicles and infantry, from massive 15 versus 15 PvP matches to smaller 5-man operations. Armored Warfare does have something for everybody.

Control hundreds of modern armored vehicles across several eras, ranging from the 1950s to the 2030s, all meticulously modeled after their real-life counterparts. Five epic classes will satisfy every gameplay style, from heavily armored MBTs, light AFV scouts to Tank Destroyer snipers. Over 34 countries represented, yours likely included!

Massive clashes with legendary combat moments await you. Lay down torrents of fire or stop an advancing armored company by calling in an air strike.

Armored Warfare is updated on monthly (or even weekly) basis with regular content drops including new vehicles, maps, events and game modes.

Dozens of maps await you, from scorching African deserts to the mountains of China, Northern tundra, and neon-drenched urban jungles. Who knows where the evolving storyline takes you next?
