World of Tanks Publisher Wargaming.net has excitedly shared news that the free-to-play multiplayer title recently hit a new personal best record of 1,114,000 simultaneous players on its Russian servers, taking another opportunity to boast of its more than 75,000,000 globally registered accounts.

World of Tanks has set a new record with a total of over 1,114,000 gamers playing concurrently on the Russian cluster on January 19, 2014.

“In 2013, we put a great amount of effort into growing World of Tanks, enriching it with new gameplay features and content,” said Andrei Yarantsau, VP of Publishing at Wargaming. “Tankmen on the Russian servers all play at different times of the day and although their overall number has long since surpassed several million daily active users, the PCCU has been hovering around 900,000 gamers for the past few months. Finally, we’ve breached the one million mark. We are set to scale even greater heights with considerable improvements planned for World of Tanks in 2014”.

When speaking to AusGamers last year, Wargaming CEO Victor Kislyi expressed hopes of achieving a hugely ambitious one billion World of Tanks players.
