The Girls und Panzer universe rolls back into World of Tanks with a fan-favourite addition — Saunders University High School. Known for their upbeat energy, teamwork, and explosive firepower, Saunders brings a fresh burst of positivity to the battlefield this month.
The Saunders Spirit Arrives in World of Tanks
From October 20th to October 27th, players can recruit four unique crew members from Saunders University High School, led by the ever-charismatic Commander Kei. As the team’s heart and leader, Kei’s extroverted personality and fair-play ethos shine through — and yes, she’s voiced by her original Japanese cast, bringing an authentic anime experience to the game.
Taking centre stage is the Tier VI Sherman Firefly Saunders, a meticulously designed American medium tank that mirrors its look from the hit anime series. Fans can also deck out their vehicles with the new Saunders University High School 2D Style, a vibrant design that embodies the cheerful spirit of the Saunders crew.

During the event, commanders can complete special missions to earn GuP Tokens, redeemable in the Girls und Panzer Event Store. Players can unlock exclusive customization items, including:
-
Voiced Commanders

2D styles and decals

Unique emblems and camouflages
The event also reintroduces favourites from St. Gloriana, Kuromorimine, and Jatkosota HS, alongside the return of the fully adjustable Oarai 2D Style — perfect for tankers who love to mix and match their aesthetics.

About Girls und Panzer
Originally airing in 2012, Girls und Panzer became an instant classic for its unique blend of high school drama and tactical tank warfare. The franchise has since expanded to include films, OVAs, and the ongoing Girls und Panzer das Finale series — the latest part of which premiered in October 2023.
The anime’s setting, the real-life town of Ōarai in Japan’s Ibaraki Prefecture, has even become a beloved tourist spot for fans.
