World of Tanks Modern Armor: Metal Fest Featuring Motörhead and Rob Zombie
This summer, the popular game World of Tanks Modern Armor is turning up the volume with an electrifying event called Metal Fest. This special event is part of the game’s new Heavy Metal season and features the iconic heavy metal band Motörhead and the legendary shock rocker Rob Zombie. Here’s everything you need to know about this thrilling addition to the game.
Metal Fest: An Annual Celebration
Metal Fest has become an anticipated annual event for World of Tanks Modern Armor players. This year, the event is set to be even more spectacular. If you missed last year’s headliners—Sabaton, Megadeth, and Iron Maiden—you’re in luck. For a limited time, last year’s content will be available again, allowing players to relive the epic moments.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there. This year’s event introduces new content featuring Motörhead and Rob Zombie, two legendary names in the music world.
Motörhead: A Heavy Metal Legacy
Motörhead’s involvement in Metal Fest brings new content that fans of the band and the game will love. The new additions include:
- The Thunder Chief Object 452K Tank
- The “Bomber” Skin for the FV107 Scimitar
- 2D Commanders representing band members Lemmy Kilmister, Phil Campbell, and Mikkey Dee
- 3D Commanders modeled after Lemmy and the band’s mascot, Warpig
Motörhead is a band that has left an indelible mark on the heavy metal genre. The late Lemmy Kilmister, the band’s founder, is still revered in the metal community. Lemmy was not only a legendary musician but also an avid gamer. The band actively contributed to the concepts and ideas for the new Tanks content.
Discussing the Lemmy 3D Commander, the band mentioned, “Modern technology has enabled us to have Lemmy fully integrated into the game, which felt appropriate given that this is exactly the sort of game he played and avidly enjoyed.”
The dedication to creating an authentic representation of Lemmy is evident. Andy Dorizas, the art director for World of Tanks, stated, “We did a ton of visual research to make sure we were making the most authentic version of Lemmy seen in any video game ever, and I think we achieved that. I wanted to make sure we honored him as the amazing guy he was.”
This dedication extends to all aspects of Motörhead’s involvement in the game. The Motörhead tank and skin, as well as the Warpig 3D Commander, are meticulously designed. Dorizas added, “We even have Warpig carrying the bomb from the Bomber album cover into the game when you choose him in the UI.”
Fans will also get to hear Warpig’s voice for the first time. Brendan Blewett, the audio director for World of Tanks, was responsible for bringing Warpig’s voice to life. He explained, “Motörhead provided clear goals and direction for Warpig in that they wanted a character that was a cross between a wild, free-wheeling-no-rules biker and an English bulldog.”
Blewett used a combination of human voice recordings and dog vocalizations to create Warpig’s voice. “My sister-in-law has a puggle named Ollie, and he is a legendary vocalizer when it comes to snorting and breathing and grunting and whatnot, so the solution presented itself,” he said. “The whole of every line is a human voice being directly modulated by dog vocalizations.”
Rob Zombie: A Shock Rock Titan
Rob Zombie’s contribution to Metal Fest is equally impressive. The new content includes:
- The Dragula T-55AGM Tank
- The “Superbeast” Skin for the M53/55
- 2D and 3D Commanders modeled after Rob Zombie
Rob Zombie is a creative powerhouse known for his work in music, film, and beyond. His 1998 album, Hellbilly Deluxe, solidified his status in the shock rock genre. The Dragula T-55AGM tank pays homage to the album’s lead single, “Dragula.”
Creating Rob Zombie’s 3D Commander required a design that encompassed all his achievements and interests. Andy Dorizas shared, “We made two designs of his 3D commander. Rob chose the one that was more authentic to Rob and not tied to any one album theme … a bad-ass tanker with evil style and some serious menace.”
A Thrilling Event for All Players
Whether you’re a fan of Motörhead or Rob Zombie, this year’s Metal Fest promises to be an exhilarating experience. Both acts were among the top five most requested by players, and the game developers are honored to bring them to the battlefield.
