Work in Progress: Update 13.10

This is a short overview of the planned features for Update 13.10. For more information, visit the relevant link:

EU NA ASIA

IMPORTANT! Because the update is still being tested, the information in this article is tentative and reflects the state of game development at the time of its publication. Some changes and new features may be removed entirely or implemented differently by the time the update goes live.

STAR TREK Operations






In the second wave of our collaboration with STAR TREK, you can dive into three exciting Operations, each lasting 2 weeks, spanning Updates 13.10 and 13.11.

The Operations unfold on the planet Vulcan during an attack from the Borg Collective. You must take control of ships representing the Federation, the Federation, Vulcan, Klingon Empire, and Romulan Star Empire factions.

In the new STAR TREK Port, you can follow your reward track progress, upgrade your ships, and explore a themed collection. Iconic STAR TREK memorabilia will grace your Captain's quarters, and collecting its elements will provide battle bonuses for the event's Operations.

New weapons and shield mechanics are available, with phasers, pulse phasers, and photon torpedoes. The event introduces a unique system for upgrading your ships, with the use of unlockable modules affecting primary weapons, secondary weapons, hulls, and shields. Combining the different modules in various ways will change the configuration of ship stats, armaments, and consumables; or even unlock Combat Instructions.




Black Friday Event Pass



It's getting to that time of the year! This year, we've got even more ships, containers, Coal, Steel, and a new custom enemy destruction effect—Monochrome!




  • The first progression line brings Black Friday 2024 Premium and standard containers, 3 days of Warships Premium Account, economic rewards, and a new enemy destruction effect.
  • The second progression line brings French battleship Dunkerque B, French Commander Jeremie Noel with 10 skill points, even more Black Friday 2024 Premium and standard containers, and other valuable rewards.






Arena



A new high-stakes Brawl event is coming your way! During the first week of the event, a special mission chain will become purchasable in the Armory for 10,000 Coal. After making the purchase, you can proceed to 3v3 Brawls playing Tier IX battleships, cruisers, and destroyers. Every victory will earn you rewards!


  • You must win seven times to complete the mission chain.
  • You can lose an occasional battle, but no more than three battles in total.
  • Completing the chain will bring you the final reward—500 Steel.
  • If you lose more than three times, the chain will break, you'll be rewarded with 3x More Coal containers, and you'll have to start from scratch by purchasing another mission chain.

Update 13.9: Red October


This is a short overview of some of the content introduced in Update 13.9. You'll find more information in a dedicated article on our website:

EU

Mode Shuffle 2.0




The dynamic battle type that randomly places you in one of three different game modes has returned for Update 13.9, with some interesting changes. Alongside Convoy and Airship Escort, you could land in a game of Epicenter, which has had a fair few tweaks to its points system, and that is taking the place of Arms Race from our previous iteration of Mode Shuffle.




German-Themed Event Pass




Update 13.9's event pass, titled "Unity, Justice, Freedom" pays homage to Germany's Reunification Day both in name and in content:


  • The first progression line includes "Black, Red, and Gold" and "Black, White, Red" permanent camouflages, the German Navy permanent camouflage for Prinz Heinrich, and the German Eagle permanent camouflage for Prinz Rupprecht
  • The second progression line can be unlocked with 2,500 Doubloons, and grants tier VI destroyer Karl von Schönberg immediately, followed by the German Navy permanent camouflage for Zieten, Commander Willie Neumann, 1x German Squadron Premium container, and the German Eagle permanent camouflage for Schlieffen





Red October Bounty Hunt




Will you sign up to be a Bounty, or will you be a dedicated hunter? Either way, you can take home some Soviet-themed rewards for taking part in our latest Bounty Hunt event!

The Bounty status can be purchased up to 80 times from the Armory for 100,000 Credits, with the first three purchases being free. You lose the Bounty status when your ship gets destroyed or the event ends.

You can get a temporary currency called Red Tokens if you earn special achievements, as well as for destroying ships while having the Bounty status active. You can spend Red Tokens on variety of rewards including Soviet Era containers, which can drop new Soviet cruiser Kozma Minin among other things!

Red October Leaderboard



During the first week of the event, we'll be tracking progress on a leaderboard—sink as many Bounties as possible to claim valuable rewards, depending on your final ranking:


  • 1-10: tier VIII submarine S-189
  • 11-25: get 3x Soviet Era Premium containers
  • 26-50: 1,000 Steel


The Battle of Leyte Gulf




We're marking the 80th anniversary of the largest naval encounter of World War II with an interactive adventure and opportunities to get legendary Tier VIII carrier Enterprise and new tier VIII battleship Tennessee!

As you advance through the adventure, you will learn the history of this battle as you complete missions and earn new Leyte Gulf containers and Leyte tokens, the latter of which you can exchange for containers guaranteed to drop Tier VI–IX Premium ships, the "I Shall Return" permanent camouflage for Tennessee, the Ghost of the Pacific permanent camouflage for Enterprise, as well as eight 10-skill-point historical Commanders, and more
