Fans of Intel are left surprised at the grand spell indicating their cryptic tweet about Tiger Tanks in a game yet to be revealed, and gamers are already ripping their minds on ways the tanks can be blown up. Hailed this way, the tweet said: “Intel commissions to tell us of the inbound Tiger Tanks 👀 What is your preferred way of vehicular destruction? 💥,” thus letting wild speculation begin. But, for now, nil entries in replies are met, and the community will have to picture all this carnicle by itself.

First off–Tiger Tanks? Those machines are total monsters, legendary for their thick armor and actual history of crushing firepower. If they’re game, then you know it’s a dial-up from 10 to 11 for the devs. But how do you even take out one?

For some, they just wait in RPG ambush behind cover for the moment to strike. For other? They throw caution to the wind, and charge the objective in a jeep with C4 strapped to it as though they’re in a movie. Aerial crazies make a habit of calling in an airstrike on the Tiger and watching the fireworks at an unmanned distance.

Except that Intel’s tweet didn’t specify which game this was going to be incorporated into. Is it some new WWII shooter? A surprise tackical mil-sim update? Or maybe, just to throw the above ball curve, a battle royale with historical vehicles? The lack of context really is making the theorists go amok.

But what’s for sure Type Tiger is coming in; the meta is about to get really loud. More than just a bullet sponge, these are game-changers. Picture squads scrambling mid-match to coordinate their anti-tank tactics, or solo guys making some ridiculously insane flanking maneuvers just to stick explosives to the treads. Possibilities for chaos go through the roof.

And that emoji? That 👀 is the universal sign of, “We’re cooking something spicy.” Complete trailer reveal or maybe just the last little teaser before they drop a big announcement? Either way, Intel isn’t giving us much on that front, and that’s exactly what they are going for. Gamers just love a little mystery, especially where artillery is involved.

So wait for details (or until someone sneaks in and leaks the whole thing), because that is where the real fun lies: in speculation. Spots to fire at? Can the tank be commandeered? Flamethrower melee just for crimes against humanity? Only time will tell.
