World of Warships Takes to the Seas Today

Say bonvoyage to dry land because World of Warships is shipshape and ready to officially cast off from today. After intensive Alpha and Beta testing periods, this highly-anticipated free-to-play game lets you command some of history’s most iconic vessels in a battle for naval supremacy.

All prospective captains will know by now that there are four classes of ships available to command, plus a boatload of upgrades, and strategical battlefields to plot your skirmishes over. Cruisers are very versatile vessels, able to hold their own with any other ship in the game. Destroyers are quick and maneuverable ships that can skirt away from damage and deliver a dangerous torpedo strike. Battleships are hulking goliaths of the ocean, at home doling out serious damage. Finally, aircraft carriers bring an RTS dynamic to gameplay, with scout planes to find enemy vessels and torpedo bombers to drop their devastating payload.

The game modes that players can start enjoying include PvE and PvP across 10 tactically diverse maps. In PvP, a fleet of 12v12 matches clash for dominance. PvE plays out against crafty AI opponents set to sharpen captains’ skills.

The first season of Ranked Battles will also be setting sail. This mode is for the naval enthusiasts out there who have already been busy storming the seas and have achieved a level 9 Service Record. These players can take the helm in 7v7 Domination matches against those of similar skill.

There are also myriad ways to outfit and enhance a vessel. Commanders help shape playstyles, as well as dozens of Modernizations and Skills. Consumables like vessels camouflage and Signal Flags delivers another tactical elemental to World of Warships, where players can discover various boosts to give them the edge in battle.
