content auto translated from {from}

In September, "World of Ships" celebrates its tenth anniversary. In honor of the anniversary, a festive update 25.9 will be released, featuring the festive port "Layout: Saint Petersburg," bonuses for combat results ("snowflakes"), the unique commander mermaid Lesta, the collection "Naval Anniversary," the return of the temporary battle type "Convoy," a new permanent campaign "Sea Theaters of the Japanese War," a Shipyard with ship selection, a new map "Waterfall Roar," and a massive interface update.

New Port "Layout: Saint Petersburg"

The atmosphere of the celebration will be created immediately after the game launches with a new temporary port — a detailed layout of the Northern capital with festive decorations and references to the history of "World of Ships." The port will be available during the 25.9 version.

Massive Interface Update

As part of the tenth-anniversary celebration, the game received a major interface overhaul, which has become more flexible and adaptive, as well as modern and user-friendly. The Port tab, container screen, Admiralty, battle search screen, in-battle interface, colors, fonts, weapon and equipment icons, appearance, and names of in-game currencies have been updated.

"Snowflakes" and New Containers

A week after the release of update 25.9 and until September 29, the traditional anniversary "snowflake drop" will start in the game. For victory or 300+ units of pure experience on each ship from level V, players will receive in-game gifts, including a new container "Pearl Trophy," styled as a "Fabergé egg."

Commander Mermaid Lesta, Camouflages and Collection

  • Mermaid Lesta — the company's mascot, a rare universal commander with special voice acting, port animation, and four enhanced skills.

  • Permanent Camouflages: "Palace" for Julang and "Admiralty" for Chikugo, inspired by famous landmarks in Saint Petersburg.

Return of the Temporary Mode "Convoy"

In the anniversary version, the "Convoy" returns to the game: a 12×12 format on ships of levels VIII–X with two to three allied convoy bots and predetermined routes.

Shipyard: First Choice of Two Ships

In 25.9, a new Shipyard will launch with immediately available choices of two final ships:

Impero — battleship with nine 381-mm artillery guns, high turret rotation speed, a bonus to the time of changing shell types, and a unique "Full Speed Smoke Generator";

Lazio — a "hybrid" aircraft carrier with three types of squadrons, the ability to attack with all aircraft per sortie, and eight artillery turrets; equipped with a "Full Speed Smoke Generator," automatic "Emergency Team," and "Interceptor."

Permanent Campaign "Sea Theaters of the Japanese War"

In honor of the 120th anniversary of the end of the Russo-Japanese War, a new permanent campaign with five missions featuring historical milestones of the conflict has been added to the game. Rewards for key tasks in the first four missions — two Supercontainers each; the final reward — legendary commander Stepan Makarov.

New Map "Waterfall Roar"

Mediterranean exoticism in "World of Ships": a new map inspired by Sardinia (the pink beaches of Budelli, saline lakes, and cascades of waterfalls).

The latest news from "World of Ships" is available on VK, Telegram, and the official game website.
