BigWorld technology fully satisfies the highest requirements of the intensive development process providing a set of tools necessary to produce an ace-high MMOG with fast-paced battles featuring various modes, historic mini-campaigns, tourneys and epic clan wars on a global map.

"We had been considering several technologies before starting developing our new team-based Panzer MMO game", says Victor Kislyi, CEO of Wargaming.net. "However, it turned out that BigWorld is the only ready-to-use and complete solution for the specific needs of this project."
