Forget back-alley brawls and pub-side deals—Tommy Shelby and the Peaky Blinders are taking over World of Tanks. In an unexpected but undeniably stylish crossover, Wargaming has teamed up with Banijay Rights to launch BATTLE PASS SPECIAL: PEAKY BLINDERS—a limited-time event running from 20 to 31 March.

So, if you’ve ever wanted to see a Birmingham gangster swap horse races for heavy artillery, here’s your chance.

From Flat Caps to Tank Crews

At the heart of this event is the chance to recruit five of the Shelbys’ most notorious members—fully voiced, dripping in charisma, and ready to run riot in your tank crew.

• Tommy Shelby – The cold-blooded mastermind himself, razor-sharp and ruthlessly efficient.
• Arthur Shelby – A walking powder keg of violence and unpredictability.
• John Shelby – The young hothead with something to prove.

For those who want the full Shelby experience, a special bundle introduces:

• Ada Shelby – Sharp-witted, cunning, and always two steps ahead.
• Michael Gray – The ambitious cousin looking to carve out his own empire.

If you’ve ever thought World of Tanks needed more backroom dealings and cutthroat ambition, the Shelbys are here to deliver.

Battlefield Meets Birmingham

The event’s ultimate prize is the Tier IX Premium French Medium Tank, Char Murat, wrapped in a “Tommy” 3D style. Inspired by the grim battlefields of World War I, the war that shaped the Shelbys, this tank is as stylish as it is deadly.

And because no takeover is complete without branding, players can deck out their vehicles with Peaky Blinders-themed decals, inscriptions, and a specially composed soundtrack—so even in the middle of war, you’ll still feel like you’re walking through the smoke-filled streets of 1920s Birmingham.

From the BBC to the Battlefield

Originally a BBC production, Peaky Blinders (created by Steven Knight) has conquered the world, airing in over 190 countries and securing its place in pop culture history. Now, it’s bringing its signature grit to World of Tanks—because, as we all know, “this place is under new management… by order of the Peaky Blinders.”

So, if you fancy rolling into battle with a tank crew that could outwit the entire battlefield while looking annoyingly good in a flat cap, this is your time.
