World of Tanks rumbles over to the Xbox One on July 28 — with Xbox 360 cross-platform play

Got a Tier 10 Patton but don’t want to play World of Tanks on your old, rundown Xbox 360 anymore? Well, starting July 28, that beast gets an Xbox One makeover — and you’ll still be able to play with your mates on Microsoft’s last-gen box.

World of Tanks is coming to the Xbox One, and it’s going to be the first game to offer cross-platform play between Microsoft’s two systems. It’s a significant move in an online gaming industry that could hit $30.7 billion by 2017, putting Wargaming’s flagship title on PC and now two consoles.
