Captain!
World of Warships is turning seven!
Let's celebrate the anniversary in Update 0.11.8!
The game's birthday will bring you festive bonuses for battle performance,
British battleships in the Tech Tree,
a new collection, the classic Warship Strike mini-game,
reworked Operations, and much more.
Watch our review to get all the details!
As I said earlier,
our favorite game is celebrating its birthday in Update 0.11.8.
On this occasion, a whole sea of activities,
with many pleasant rewards and gifts,
awaits you.
The most valuable items you can obtain as bonuses for battle performance.
According to the good old tradition,
you can get a reward
if you achieve your first victory playing Tier V–X ships and superships
or earn 300 Base XP.
Tier V–VII ships will earn you 1x Special Bonuses container,
Tier VIII and Tier IX ones—
1x Special Bonuses container, 1x Rare Bonuses container.
And a victory in a battle or 300 Base XP earned playing Tier X ships and superships
will bring you 1x Supercontainer.
Captain,
do you know that now you can get several gifts at once in one battle?
This new feature will make it easier to obtain rewards,
especially for those
who have an impressive collection of ships in their Ports.
It works like this.
For example, you have more than 100 ships in your Port.
Then, you select one that can earn you a bonus and helm her to battle.
After the battle, you obtain a standard gift for your ship
and additional gifts for earned Base XP.
You can obtain these additional gifts
without entering a battle on any other Tier V and higher ship
that you haven't claimed the gifts on yet.
Keep in mind that you can't obtain a reward for battle performance on the same ship twice.
It should be noted that the number of gifts at the end of the battle
depends not only on the amount of earned XP
but also on the number of ships in the Port.
In honor of the celebration,
a real treasure map awaits you on our website.
Unlock the map elements by completing combat missions,
collecting gifts, and finding bonus codes!
You'll find special bonus codes in some of the videos on our channel
dedicated to the release of Update 0.11.8.
Click on the map element and activate the bonus code to unlock it.
Unlock all elements to get Warships Premium Account days and Coal!
We've also prepared a new collection for the seventh anniversary of the game.
It has a very symbolic name—Seven Seas—
and will be dedicated to World of Warships' historical ports.
Find elements of the collection in Seven Seas containers.
Completing one page will get you a day of Warships Premium Account.
Completing the entire collection will earn you a bonus package for a Tier VII ship.
Update 0.11.8 will introduce another way to have a great time in the game
and get rewards for it!
Meet the legendary Warship Strike!
Take part in exciting activities inspired by the classic Warship Strike game.
You'll have to fight turn-based battles in the Armory
challenging a serious opponent—AI.
And don't worry if you have to leave a game of Warship Strike unfinished.
All progress will be saved,
and you'll be able to return to the game at any time.
You'll also be able to end the game early.
In this case, AI will finish it for you.
To take part in Warship Strike, you'll need Strike Passes,
which you can earn by completing a special combat mission chain.
In this event,
you're rewarded with Festive Tokens for successful battles and sunken enemy ships.
This temporary resource can be exchanged for valuable items in the Armory.
"The Navy's here," Captain!
A new branch of British battleships is ready to enter the battle in full force.
Eight true gentlemen will become available for research to everyone in Update 0.11.8.
Indefatigable, Queen Mary, Tiger, Renown,
Rooke, Hawke, Duncan, and St. Vincent.
These ships prefer close- and medium-range combats.
They are equipped with powerful guns with a low firing range.
At the same time, the AP shells of the new British ships
have low fuse arming delay time,
making them efficient against lightly armored targets.
The new battleships also have torpedoes.
And if you use them properly, you'll see the numbers on your damage counter surge.
By the way, if the ships take damage themselves,
you can restore their HP with the Repair Party consumable.
Duncan and St. Vincent have a more efficient Specialized Repair Team instead.
Starting from Tier V, the newcomers are equipped with Engine Boost;
from Tier VI, it is complemented with Defensive AA Fire.
The British battleships will surely impress you!
Helm them to battle and see for yourself!
You'll be able to test the power of new battleships and other ships
in the reworked Operations.
We've reworked the battle type in Update 0.11.8.
From now on, you can play on more of your favorite ships.
And Tier VI–VIII ships are allowed to be in battle simultaneously now.
Such a lineup will affect the strength of the bots as well.
By the way,
a 30-minute delay to enter a battle on the same ship has also been lifted.
The economy of this battle type will also change.
Now, instead of stars and one-time rewards,
the player will get special combat missions for Operations.
Completing them will earn you Community Tokens and even a Supercontainer.
Completing additional tasks during the battle
will boost earnings at the end of it.
Apart from all the improvements,
we've brought Ultimate Frontier, Hermes, and Cherry Blossom Operations back to the game.
Find more detailed information about the updated Operations on our website.
In this Update,
we've changed the gun reload mechanics that are applied when switching shell type.
Thanks to this change, the Commander's Loader skill has become more versatile.
Now, it'll work even if not all main battery guns have reloaded.
Read more about this in a dedicated article on our website.
These were the latest changes in Update 0.11.8.

And I, Dasha Perova, want to sincerely congratulate you on our common birthday
and wish you bright victories in the game and real life!
The game is only seven, Captain!
The fun has only just begun!
