The last time there was a world of tanks in SE Asia it meant war.  This time it only means one more part of the world will get to partake in the joys of the recently turned one year old free2play tank sim MMO (SIMMO?), World of Tanks.  Specifically, players in Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand will be able to partake via publisher SEA Gaming.  SEA Gaming will also handle all of World of Tanks's marketing, distribution, and tech support for players in the region.

Roll on World of Tanks.  Roll on.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Wargaming.net brings award-winning online game World of Tanks to South East Asia

In-game language options for the armored action MMO will feature English, Mandarin, Tagalog, Malay and Thai

26th April, 2012 — With over 24 million gamers already playing World of Tanks, the award-winning online game developer and publisher Wargaming.net has high expectations for growth in the Asian market, as the company launches the award-winning massively multiplayer online game World of Tanks to players in Southeast Asia (SEA), namely Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and Thailand.

The game will be launched through online game publisher SEA Gaming, who will handle marketing, distribution, operations and support service for players.

"We are excited to launch our headliner in Southeast Asia," said Wargaming.net CEO Victor Kislyi. We've just made another huge step forward to SEA presence, and I would like to thank everyone at Wargaming.net and SEA Gaming for making it happen."

World of Tanks is the first and only team-based, massively multiplayer online action game dedicated to armored warfare. Throw yourself into the epic tank battles of World War II with other steel cowboys all over the world. Your arsenal includes more than 150 armored vehicles from America, Germany, the Soviet Union, and France, carefully detailed with historical accuracy.

A flexible system of authentic vehicle upgrades and development allows you to try any of the vehicles and weapons in the game. Whether you prefer to exhaust your foes with fast and maneuverable light tanks, make deep breaches in enemy lines with all-purpose medium tanks, use the force of giant tanks to eliminate opposing armored forces, or become a heavy sniper with long-range howitzers, each unit type has its own advantages and can be extremely effective when operated by a true tank ace.

But being a great tank commander alone isn't enough to win! In World of Tanks, it's all about teamwork. Victory is achieved by combining your combat skills with those of the other members of your team, each playing their own role on the battlefield. Just add your favorite strategy to build your own steel empire and manifest the indisputable authority of the tank power!
