During World of Tanks Holiday Ops 2025, players will meet Hollywood star Jason Statham in a specially designed Headquarters, where he hands out missions packed with new challenges and rewards. These missions include combat tasks in battles and using resources like Warm Amber and Meteoric Iron to unlock exclusive customization options. Players who complete the tasks can earn rewards like decals, inscriptions, and two special 2D tank styles. The biggest prize, though, is Jason Statham himself, who can be recruited as a tank commander with custom voice lines if players complete 27 missions.

What Does Jason Statham Bring to the World of Tanks Holiday Ops 2025 Event?

28 Standard Missions + 5 Extra Missions: Unlock progressively but can be completed simultaneously. Rewards include Jason Statham himself as a Commander, brand-new Experimental Equipment, 3D attachments from a "tough guy" set, vehicle discounts, and more.
20 Assignments: Use Warm Amber and Meteoric Iron to complete these, boosting credit and XP bonuses while unlocking unique customization elements.
Customization Rewards: One inscription, two decals, and two distinct 2D styles with unique Marks of Excellence.
Economic Bonuses: Every assignment completed increases all economic bonuses in Random and Grand Battles, enhancing your credits and XP (Free, Combat, and Crew).

The event includes 28 daily missions and five extra challenges, which can be completed at players’ own pace. They can earn the new Experimental Equipment that boosts World of Tanks vehicles' performance. Players can also earn valuable in-game items like bonds, credits, Free XP, and Terminal Tokens. Those who complete the toughest challenges can unlock components for advanced equipment, including the Accuracy Improvement System, which helps enhance players' vehicle precision and aiming speed.

Statham’s involvement goes beyond just the missions. His assignments offer incremental economic bonuses, increasing credits and various types of XP throughout the event, applying to all World of Tanks vehicles. Alongside Statham’s role, Holiday Ops 2025 introduces a new game mode called Winter Raid that turns the battlefield into a paper-crafted wonderland, where three teams of five compete to collect and secure gifts. Players control paper tanks to earn Gift Coins that can be used to unlock rewards like 3D attachments.

As soon as players enter the event, they'll immediately receive the T3E2 Medium Tank, a Tier 3 Premium American tank complete with a fully trained crew and a garage slot. Whether players tackle Jason's missions or the challenges of Winter Raid, this event promises an action-packed season full of rewards for them.
