World of Tanks: Xbox 360 Edition 1.2 update includes weather variant system

World of Tanks: Xbox 360 Edition Update 1.2 is now available, bringing a host of new content and features to the free-to-play title.

Update 1.2 includes:

Weather Variant System – For the first time in World of Tanks, experience combat in three different climates: rain, snow, and night. Be prepared to battle the elements along with your enemies.

Two New Battle Arenas

• Fisherman’s Bay – Take advantage of excellent ambush opportunities with sloping hills covered in bushes, plus a combination of open spaces and irregular terrain.
• Abbey – Find the abbey’s courtyard at the highest point on the hill and explore three roads that allow passage from the north and south.

American Tank Destroyers – Take out the competition from a distance with seven new tank destroyers that offer great speed, guns and penetration: M8A1, T49, M18 Hellcat, T25/2, T28 Prototype, T30, T110E4

New Tank Package Upgrades – Guns, lots of guns! Choose from a variety of new loadout packages that provide an even deeper tank customization during tech tree progression. Use these packages to research or obtain new guns without giving up previously acquired modules.

Xbox Live Achievements – earn eight new achievements within World of Tanks: Xbox 360 Edition to increase your Gamerscore.

Soviet Premium Tanks Earn credits and increase crew skills with these five new tanks – Valentine II, Matilda IV, IS-6, SU-122-44, and Churchill III – that were introduced into the game earlier this week.
