World of Tanks adds Doom Slayer and FV225 collector heavy tank – Newsy Today
World of Tanks is crossing the streams with one of gaming’s most ferocious legends. A new Battle Pass season brings the Doom Slayer into the battlefield alongside a centerpiece reward: the FV225 Collector, a Tier IX British heavy tank equipped with a dual-gun system and styled to look like it rolled straight out of the depths.
Hellfire meets heavy armor
The FV225 Collector anchors this limited-time event with striking visual options and a mean mechanical profile. Two premium 3D styles reimagine the vehicle through different eras of demon-slaying: one channels the industrial brutality of modern entries in the franchise, while the other nods to the classic shooter vibe with retro flavor and iconic details. It’s the sort of tank that looks at home both on a smoldering infernal map and in the dust-choked lanes of any armored skirmish.
Cosmetics and callbacks
The cosmetic suite goes deep on references fans will recognize. Expect Slayer armor elements, weapon-inspired adornments, a snarling demon motif, and even a heads-up display flourish that echoes the pixelated, ever-grimacing marine face from the old-school days. These touches are more than decals—they’re a full-on aesthetic shift that turns your garage into a shrine to mayhem.
Commanders from the Doom universe
The crossover also expands the commander roster with five recruits:
- Doom Slayer (classic)
- Doom Slayer (modern)
- Samuel Hayden
- Thira
- The Betrayer
Each character arrives with fitting voice work to match their personality. The Slayers keep things terse and guttural, while the others lend a bit more articulation to your orders.
FV225 Collector: quick briefing
- Tier: IX
- Nation: U.K.
- Class: Heavy tank
- Guns: Dual-gun setup for aggressive peeking and follow-up shots
- Styles: Two distinct 3D looks—one contemporary, one retro-inspired
In practical terms, the dual-barrel layout gives the FV225 a flexible rhythm in close- to mid-range fights, letting you threaten opponents with staggered fire or pounce with rapid back-to-back shots when the angle opens up.
How to get involved
The Doom-themed Battle Pass content—including the FV225 Collector, the 3D styles, and the special commanders—is available for a limited time. Progress through the season, complete its chapters, and claim rewards as you advance. Some items may be tied to premium tiers or bundles, while others unlock through standard progression.
Deadline to participate: October 22. If you want the tank, the commanders, or the cosmetics, make your move before the event window closes.
