Wargaming has announced the details for the update 8.6 for World of Tanks, which will bring further changes and balance to the in-game economy, as well add new SPGs to push that armor line to tier X.

Current tier 8 SPGs will be promoted to tier X, while the newly introduced SPGs in Update 8.6 will take their place in the middle tiers. In addition to the new vehicles, the game will also be updated with one new map named Pearl River. Three existing maps will get revamped visuals and shading effects, including Siegfried Line, South Coast and Malinovka.

"Update 8.6 is a major step in game balance enhancement and is really going to make SPGs players happy," said Mike Zhivets, producer on World of Tanks. "Artillery gameplay is going to feel a lot more balanced with a normal ten tier structure, making advancing through that class of armor more comfortable for players."
