Thank you to everyone who took part, we really appreciate your support!

This is a short overview of the planned features for Update 13.11. 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.






13.11 is our New Year update, so we've naturally prepared a festive atmosphere for you to enjoy both in your Port and on the battlefield.

• You'll visit the new Port of Nordlyshavn, where you can decorate your very own Christmas Tree with ornaments that can be unlocked by completing missions.
  
• A special Advent Calendar will replace the standard daily rewards from December 1 through 25.
  
• You can earn Festive Rewards for all the Tier V+ ships in your Port!
  
• Unwrap Santa's Gift containers, streamlined to two types—Santa's Gift and Santa's Mega Gift—both stuffed with a new rotation of ships!
  
• Light your enemies up like a Christmas Tree with three new holiday-themed enemy destruction effects.

Based on player feedback, we've decided to change our stance on the magazine detonation mechanic and are going to remove it from the game entirely starting with Update 13.11

This change goes hand-in-hand with another series of changes, including the removal of the Juliet Charlie signal, which will be replaced with the new Charlie Kilo signal, increasing ship HP and squadron HP by +5% and +2.5%, respectively. The Magazine Modification 1 upgrade will be removed entirely, and all of its owners will automatically receive full compensation in Credits.




Our heroes Li Wei and Olaf Lundgren are nearing the end of their expedition to the North Pole! Update 13.11 features two themed Event Pass chapters, each dedicated to an explorer you’ve already met in a previous update.

Advancing through the Event Pass levels will bring you Commanders Li Wei and Olaf Lundgren, plus various awesome rewards like ships!

Each Event Pass chapter lasts for 3 weeks, features 25 levels and functions as a standalone Pass. This means that once the first chapter ends, you won’t be able to complete it retroactively!


The final chapter of our STAR TREK Operations unfolds in Update 13.11. At the beginning of the Operation, you must defend three control points at risk of falling to the Borg. You’ll face three enemy waves, each led by a powerful minion.

If you successfully defeat all the Borg Queen's minions, she'll have no choice but to join the fight herself…

The third phase of the Star Trek Operation reward track offers Steel, Free XP, Elite Commander XP, special and rare economic bonuses, signals, Star Tokens, and collection items.




Construction of European Tier IX battleship Niord is commencing at the Hamburg Dockyard. The ship features eight accurate 380 mm main battery guns with a fast reload. She also boasts 20 torpedo tubes with a tight spread, fast speed, and long range.

One of the intermediate rewards is European Tier V destroyer Kalmar, which can be found at the 8th shipbuilding phase.

The Dockyard construction process consists of 20 phases, 18 of which you can advance through via combat missions, while the rest can be purchased for Doubloons. Each shipbuilding phase costs 3,000 Doubloons. Starter packs of two and six phases can be purchased for 5,000 and 12,600 Doubloons, respectively.




The beloved battle type where you fight as a team of five against superior bot-controlled forces has returned!

• You can play Tier VI–X ships and superships
  
• Five ships to a team on the player side
  
• Maximum difference of one tier between the ships
  
• You can play any ship type

Update 13.11 also delivers a temporary new activity—Clan Patrols—available for all Clan members. Inside the special Patrol window under the Clan tab, you can choose a battle type for Patrols and receive extra rewards just by playing it!
