Work in Progress: Update 13.8

This is a short overview of the planned features for Update 13.8. If you want to participate in the Public Test for the coming update and read more about its features, visit the dedicated article on our website:

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.

Celebrate 9 Years of World of Warships!



Update 13.8 marks the 9th Anniversary of our game, so—as has become tradition—we're going all out with the celebration for our players!

Claim Anniversary Rewards



Throughout the update, you'll be able to claim special Anniversary rewards by exchanging Festive Tokens (more on those a little further down) in the Armory. Among the rewards, you'll find:


  • Rochester (U.S. Tier VIII Premium cruiser)
  • The Stellar Pioneer permanent camouflage for Benson
  • Supercontainers
  • Battle of Paso de Patria containers
  • And more!




Earn Festive Tokens With Battle Performance Bonuses



The beloved Battle Performance Bonuses have returned for the Anniversary update! With this mechanic, all you have to do is achieve specific combat results playing your Tier V+ ships to earn Festive Tokens.

You can receive several rewards simultaneously without having to play each individual ship, and you'll now obtain Battle Performance Bonuses for your selected ship by earning cumulative Base XP.

You can also trigger additional Battle Performance Bonuses for different ships while playing the same ship multiple times. So you can play your favorite ship and activate Battle Performance Bonuses for as many other ships in your Port as you like.

Festive Event Pass



Event Pass 13.8 incorporates UI improvements highlighting important rewards, as well as general visual improvements.

Among the rewards of the first progression line, you'll be able to obtain Festive Tokens, Battle of Paso de Patria containers, and Ipiranga (Pan-American Tier VIII battleship) as the final reward.


The second progression line, unlockable for Doubloons, will provide you with a Battle of Paso de Patria Premium container as a bonus level reward; a bonus package for Tier VIII ships; and various permanent camouflages, including the Ordem e Progresso permanent camouflage for Ipiranga as the final reward.


Battle of Paso de Patria Collection




Our all-new in-game collection is themed around new Pan-American unique Commander Joaquim Marques Lisboa, who is the final reward for its completion.

We're also adding the new "Collection Token" system to in-game collections as a whole, which will streamline the use of duplicate collection items to complete collections.

Operations Update



With the release of Update 13.8, Operations Defense of Naval Station Newport, Raptor Rescue, "The Ultimate Frontier," Hermes, Aegis, and Cherry Blossom will have their tier requirements expanded, allowing Tier VI–X ships and superships to participate.

Operations enthusiasts rejoice!

Update 13.7: Almirante Oquendo at the Dockyard

This is a short overview of some of the content introduced in Update 13.7. You'll find more information in a dedicated article on our website:

EU NA ASIA

Almirante Oquendo at the Dockyard




Starting in Update 13.7, you can assemble new Spanish Tier IX cruiser Almirante Oquendo at the Dockyard!



Ship features:

  • A powerful main battery with access to an alternate firing mode that, when activated, improves shell dispersion at the cost of a higher reload time.
  • High speed but a relatively vulnerable citadel.


The shipbuilding process consists of 20 phases, 18 of which can be progressed through by completing Dockyard combat missions. When you reach Phase 11, you'll be rewarded with German Tier VI cruiser Leipzig. If she's already in your fleet, you'll receive two Dockyard phases instead; so with that and completing enough combat missions, you can earn Almirante Oquendo completely free!





The Dockyard combat missions can be completed during Updates 13.7 and 13.8, while the Dockyard will remain available until the start of Update 13.10.

Colorful Regatta Event Pass




The seas are awash with vivid colors in celebration of the Colorful Regatta Event Pass!


  • The first progression line includes rewards such as the Colorful Regatta Premium container and flag, plus Coal, Steel, and more.

  • Unlock the second progression line to gain access to some more colorful goodies: even more Colorful Tokens, the Fields of Tuscany permanent camouflage, more Coal, and more Steel!




Colorful Tokens, which can also be obtained from Colorful Regatta containers, can be used to unlock colorful ships in the Armory, including new Zaō CLR, plus Kléber CLR, Roon CLR, and North Carolina CLR.


Labyrinths of History Web Adventure




Become the protagonist of an exciting narrative adventure through an alternate history timeline of Great Britain, with new British aircraft carrier Theseus taking center stage!

In this "Choose your own adventure" style event available starting in the third week of Update 13.7, you'll be able to decide how the story unfolds by completing special combat missions.



Finish the adventure to earn Commander William Taylor with 6 skill points, as well as Heart of Oak containers and Britannia Tokens. You can use those Tokens in the Armory to purchase Tier VIII carrier Theseus and other desirable themed rewards!
