Please note that the servers will be temporarily unavailable due to the release of an update. The schedule is available below.
Maintenance times are tentative and subject to change. Please accept our apologies for any inconveniences.

The new update will go live some time after it's been downloaded because the client and server sides are updated separately. While the client begins to update immediately, it takes time for the servers to be updated across all regions.

If there are problems with downloading or launching the update—please perform files integrity check.

The fifth season of the Ranked Sprint will start on July 3rd and will run for a week until July 10th. Due to the decrease in the number of days, the complexity of the season is reduced - by 5, 4 and 3 ranks you need to get one star less to reach the next rank. The rewards of the season remain unchanged.

The sixth season will pass without changes. It begins on July 11 and will go 12 days, till July 23.

Due to the error with the start of Sprint, the display of badges for achievements in the 12th Rank season will be reset. In the future, rank badges from the main Ranked Battles season will not be reset with the start of the Ranked Sprints but will remain available until at least one Ranked Battle has been played.

Improved parameters of commander skill Survivability Expert: now increased aircraft HP for each ship tier is +25 instead of +15 (+30 instead of +20 unique commanders). At X level, this will give an increase of 250 points to aircraft HP, which will strengthen the aircraft by more than 10% and will allow the squadron to live longer under AA, taking into account the latest changes in mechanics in the update 0.8.5. Please note that other adjustments would be made in the future when necessary.

• Fixed a bug that prevented user music from playing when setting "Listen to your own music" was turned on;
  
• Display of the names of the ships and the values range on the mini map no longer depends on the settings of alternative interface mode. They are now displayed on the Alt button or when the corresponding setting is enabled;
  
• Content of the standard container "Rogue Wave" is aligned with the description on the portal. Containers that were received and not opened prior to update 0.8.5.1 will also adjust their contents to the correct ones;
  
• Fixed a bug that would show the wrong clan tag on the patch when selecting a player in the team lists before, during, and after a battle.

With Update 0.8.5, World of Warships takes you into a post-apocalyptic future. What's coming your way? Nine modified destroyers, four-team battles for Fuel Tokens, a new Clan Battle format, the return of the Ranked Battle Sprint, improved matchmaking, and much more!



The reasons why this once thriving civilization crumbled into ruins have faded from most survivors’ memories, but what remains makes a perfect arena for ruthless battles.

In the desolation-themed port you’ll find modified destroyers that have been created specifically for the new unusual four-team battle format.

The objective in this game mode is very simple—a team of three players needs to destroy three opposing teams. You can fight either in a Division or solo.

The Additional Content filter, which can be found in the lower-right corner of the Port, has been updated. If for any reason the Rogue Wave event and the whole post-apocalypse theme is not your cup of radioactive tea, you can disable the display of camouflages and unique Commanders in the ship carousel's filter. To do this, you need to uncheck the Rogue Wave item in the Special Ships section.


The rules of the Rogue Wave event are similar to those of previous in-game events: you can earn Fuel Tokens, various in-game items, and a new expendable camouflage for completing special combat missions and Directives in the new game mode. Rogue Wave includes four Directives, with each containing up to eleven missions. The reward for completing all four Directives is U.S. destroyer V Hill.


Fuel Tokens are a new temporary resource as part of the Rogue Wave event. You can exchange your Fuel Tokens in the Armory for Post-Apocalyptic camouflages, credits, Premium Account, and a special reward—Premium destroyer IX Benham.

Details of the new mode


Update 0.8.5 introduces a soft limit on the number of Tier VIII carriers in Tier VIII–IX battles. Now, during the first minute of waiting, no more than one aircraft carrier can be placed in each team. When the second minute of waiting starts, teams will be limited to two aircraft carriers; with the third minute of waiting, the limit raises to three carriers that can join each team.

The change will reduce the number of battles with two or more aircraft carriers per team, and mostly affect Tier VI ships: now they won't have to face two Tier VIII aircraft carriers as often as before.

A new battle format for Clans—Clan Brawl—is on its way! In contrast to Clan Battles, Clan Brawls take place throughout a single day, with only victories being counted. Like in Clan Battles, players will compete to obtain Steel and other valuable items.

• July 6—for Tier VIII ships
  
• July 20—for Tier X ships

• CIS 14:00 — 20:00 UTC
  
• EU 15:00 — 21:00 UTC
  
• NA 22:00 — 04:00 UTC
  
• ASIA 10:00 — 16:00 UTC

Further details on Clan Brawl will be available in the separate article next week.


Get ready for two new seasons of Ranked Battle Sprint, played in a 6 vs. 6 format with Tier VII ships. As before, ten ranks are divided into two leagues: the Second League includes Ranks 10 to 6, the First League—Ranks 5 to 1. Divisions consisting of two players are allowed in the Ranked Sprint. Prepare your Tier VII ships!

Detailed description of Ranked Battle Sprints


Update 0.8.5 brings updated mechanics for damage infliction to ships’ bulges, secondary battery and torpedo tube modules, and to the completely destroyed parts of a ship.

Now, when a shell penetrates a secondary battery module, a torpedo tube module, or a completely destroyed part of a ship, the dealt damage will be 10% of the maximum shell damage value. 100% of this damage can be restored using the Repair Party consumable. However, shells don't affect AA modules, and these can only be destroyed by explosions of HE shells, as before.

Have you ever received a "Penetration" ribbon for hitting an enemy ship's bulge, but the hit caused no damage to the enemy's HP? We are now introducing a new ribbon in order to avoid misleading our players. For penetrating a torpedo bulge without hitting the next layer of armor, a special ribbon will be given to a player—for shells, bombs, and rockets.

We've also renamed the torpedo protection armor elements which used to be called "Ship Plating." These are now called "Torpedo Protection."


Previously, in Update 0.8.4, AA defense mounts inflicted permanent damage to a randomly selected aircraft in a squadron per a set frequency. This concept allowed ships to cause damage to the entire squadron. So, if the aircraft hovered over a ship too long, her AA defenses could shoot down most of them. However, if a squadron was flying over a ship for a short amount of time, there were situations when all the aircraft were damaged, but not a single plane was brought down.

To make the destruction of aircraft more consistent, AA defense mounts now inflict damage only to the last aircraft in the squadron. Thus, a player can be confident that their AA defenses are focused on a single target, shooting it down much quicker as a result. At the same time, most of a squadron’s aircraft will remain untouched during the attack, especially those in the attacking flight. The first planes in the squadron will receive damage only if a player is unable to avoid the shell explosions of AA defenses.

The minimum speed when using the Engine Boost for all Tier IV to X aircraft has been changed. Now the aircraft decelerate by 26.25 knots instead of 17.5. Attack aircraft, as well as Japanese and German aircraft, decelerate by 30 knots instead of 20.

The new Engine Boost parameters will help ensure the survivability of aircraft at the proper level, considering the changes to AA defenses introduced in the current and previous updates.

• Torpedo damage has increased from 4,533 to 5,333 HP.
  
• Chance to cause flooding has increased from 25% to 29%.
  
• Bomb normalization has improved by 5 degrees.

Analysis of statistics showed that the enhancement of VIII Graf Zeppelin's bombers in 0.8.4 wasn't enough to balance her against other Tier VIII aircraft carriers. Reinforcing the torpedoes has increased the overall damage that can be caused, while the improved normalization has increased the effectiveness of armor penetration and slightly reduced the number of bombs being armed when they hit superstructures.


In Update 0.8.5, the Minimap will utilize new technology which will allow us to introduce improvements into the game faster and in a more efficient way. The following changes have already been introduced:

• Coordinates of the squares are now located along the upper and left borders of the Minimap.
  
• The Minimap rotation option has been moved to the in-battle Minimap settings.
  
• Last-known position markers of the enemy are now automatically enabled for all players.
  
• Only the long-range AA defense action radius is displayed on the Minimap.
  
• Display of hotkeys + and — has been removed.

The Minimap now displays only the most essential information, which prevent the player from getting lost in the large number of indicators.

The layout of notifications about new content and news articles has been revised (you are reading our news in the game client, aren't you?). Now, for new collection items, insignias, campaigns, and news—a new icon with a counter is used. We’ve also updated the look of notifications on the banners in the Port.


Three sequences of tips for newcomers have been added. They will show how to change battle type, where to find Commander skills, and how to research and purchase ship modules. The sequence about researching and purchasing a ship has new additional tips.

The display of collections has been changed. Now they are sorted by completion date, while completed collections have been moved to the left side of the screen.


Please welcome a new ship in the Armory—Tier X Japanese cruiser X Yoshino, available for 248,000 Coal.

Yoshino is a Tier X Japanese cruiser with long-range artillery, heavy salvoes, and explosive damage—a set of advantages that are generally characteristic of high-tier heavy cruisers. Yoshino has all of it, but she also has an ace up her sleeve: over a dozen long-range torpedoes. The variety of her armament will allow you to keep enemy ships on their toes at any distance. However, long-range combat is the preferable option for Yoshino, due to her large size and typical cruiser armor protection.

• Nine 310 mm guns mounted in triple turrets that boast enjoyable ballistics and a smaller dispersion ellipse when compared with cruisers Kronshtadt and Alaska.
  
• Two types of torpedoes to choose from: long range (20 km) and medium range (12 km). The latter have greater speed and damage, and they are harder to spot, too. You're also likely to grow fond of the cruiser’s torpedo aiming angles.
  
• In addition to the Damage Control Party and Repair Party consumables, the ship can also use Defensive AA Fire or Hydroacoustic Search in slot 2, and the Spotting Aircraft or Fighter consumables in slot 3.

Copper and Molybdenum have been renamed to Ranked Tokens and Clan Tokens, with updated icons. Now players won't be confused by the names of the resources they are entitled to for their grand achievements in Ranked and Clan Battles.

We continue to offer new camouflage patterns, obtainable in exchange for Ranked Tokens and Clan Tokens. In 0.8.5, battleship X Bourgogne has the option to try on the War Paint camo, which can be acquired for Ranked Tokens.

• −3% to the ship’s detectability range by sea
  
• +4% to the dispersion of shells fired by enemies at your ship
  
• −50% to the cost of the ship's post-battle service
  
• +20% credits earned per battle
  
• +100% XP per battle.

The number of containers has been changed from five to one in the Vive la France, Dunkirk, The Hunt for Bismarck, 2 Years of World of Warships, and Battle of the North Cape sets. The cost has been reduced accordingly from 5,000 to 1,000 Coal.

With the release of Update 0.8.5, Allowance Tokens will be exchanged for credits at a rate of 1:8,000, and the Victory: Part 1 section of the Armory will become unavailable.

Provision Tokens will remain in the game until Update 0.8.6. After the release of the Update, all received tokens will be exchanged for credits at a rate of 1:22,500.

Please note: the “Victory” competition is over. You can claim your Provision Tokens for a rank on the Wall of Valor only until the release of Update 0.8.5. With the release of Update 0.8.5, rewards for a rank on the Wall of Valor will not be credited.

Based on economy-related data analysis performed on the latest versions of the game, the battle rewards for the following ships have been revised:

• +5% to the average amount of credits earned per battle— III Nassau, IV Kaiser, V König, VI Bayern, VII Gneisenau, VIII Bismarck, IX Friedrich der Große, X Großer Kurfürst, V Emerald, VII Shchors, IX Dmitri Donskoi, X Moskva, VIII Admiral Hipper, IX Roon, X Hindenburg, II Umikaze, III Wakatake, IV Isokaze, VII Mahan, VIII Benson, III G-101, IV V-170, V T-22, VIII Z-23, X Z-52, II Longjiang, III Phra Ruang, and X Yueyang.

Welcome aboard U.S.S. Georgia.

This American battleship represents how far the U.S. Navy was willing to go to remain competitive against the ever-larger and more deadly Japanese warships in the prelude to the Second World War. Now you can experience the unmistakable power of a Yamato-sized 457 mm main battery, situated on a hull that can match Iowa’s lofty speeds.
https://youtu.be/hP-vVAuwitg
In 1937, the upper echelons of the United States Navy began receiving unsettling reports of Japan’s plans to construct the Yamato-class super-battleship. American, British, and French intelligence gathered that the new Japanese capital ships were set to displace more than the limit of 35,000 tons, and wield a caliber larger than the 356 mm imposed by the 1936 Second London Naval Treaty, of which Japan was not a signatory. In response, the three future Allied nations invoked the so-called Escalator Clause of the treaty: a contingency measure for just such an occasion which pushed the self-imposed limits up to 45,000 tons and 406 mm, respectively.


However, after discovering the Japanese plans, but before officially invoking the Escalator Clause, the top American ship designers had already been put to the task of creating what would eventually become the very successful Iowa-class fast battleships. First and foremost, the Navy wanted a battleship capable of a top speed that surpassed 30 knots—a clear deviation from the U.S. Navy’s standard policy up until that point that favored armor and firepower over speed. Setting 45,000 tons as the weight cap, some of the proposed designs called for the use of an 18-inch (457 mm) main battery loadout, and an armor scheme capable of defending against shells of the same caliber. Naturally, with the aforementioned weight limits, the additional machinery required to achieve such speeds, and the proposed massive guns, some corners would have to be cut. Preliminary studies concluded that such a ship should carry only six of these guns to retain a healthy weight distribution.

After the Escalator Clause was officially put into effect, the final design that was accepted for the modern American fast battleship was the Iowa class with nine 406 mm guns that we know today. When the war started, the limits of the treaty were promptly thrown aside, but plans to develop the 457 mm naval guns were eventually scrapped anyway in the wake of the tactical revolution that aircraft carriers brought to naval warfare.


U.S.S. Georgia as represented in World of Warships, is an interpretation of how the Iowa-class battleship could have ended up looking if the Second World War had broken out in 1938. With the sudden absence of naval treaty restrictions during the design phase, the U.S. Navy may well have favored the design with 457 mm guns.

Main battery: six 457 mm/47 Mk 1 guns distributed between three twin turrets: two forward and one aft.

Even though guns of this caliber were never adopted on American warships in reality, 457 mm gun models were still developed and used in the testing of new munitions in parallel to the construction of the final Iowa-class battleships. Only one of these guns survives today, and is preserved at the Dahlgren naval base in Virginia.


Secondary battery: twenty 127 mm/38 Mk38 mod. 20 guns in ten twin turrets placed on either side of the superstructure, in a typical fashion for the more modern U.S. battleships.


Anti-aircraft armament: forty single-mount 20 mm Oerlikon machine guns and sixteen quad 40 mm Bofors auto-cannons.

U.S.S. Georgia is equipped with an impressive set of consumables. Besides the standard Damage Control Party, you can choose between superior AA defenses provided by the Fighter consumable, or use Spotting Aircraft to improve your firing range. But the real power of this ship lies in the Engine Boost consumable, which adds +15% to her maximum speed, as well as the enhanced Repair Party with its fast reload time. These features, combined with a good secondary battery and the high accuracy of her main battery, allow Georgia to excel at medium distances. Expect her to fight in the aggressive and effective manner that should be expected of any true American battleship.

IX Georgia is a U.S. "fast-steaming" battleship created on the basis of her 1938 design, and an extremely aggressive fighter representing Tier IX. This ship is equipped with an unusual set of consumables that includes Engine Boost, and Repair Party with a cooldown period of 40 seconds. The battleship's artillery can pose a very serious threat to any enemy in medium- and close-range shootouts. The key to that is not only the 457 mm caliber of her main guns, but also the high accuracy of both her main and secondary batteries.

• Six 457 mm main guns. Reload time—26 seconds, firing range—20 km. The guns are notable for their high accuracy compared to other battleships.
  
• Highly accurate secondary battery guns that are capable of delivering fire over long ranges. This can be further extended to 11.3 km through installing appropriate upgrades and signals, as well as mastering the respective Commander skills.
  
• Repair Party consumable with a reduced cooldown period of only 40 seconds.
  
• Engine Boost consumable that temporarily increases the ship's maximum speed by 15%.
  
• Extra credits per battle and 100% more XP provided by the camouflage.
