Weekend Highlights | 13.11 #3

[h2]Asymmetric Battles Are Back![/h2]


You asked, and we delivered! The beloved "player vs. bot" battle type known as Asymmetric Battles has returned by popular demand!

As the name suggests, this is no simple Co-op Battle. You and a team of four other players aboard Tier VI–X ships or superships will face off against an overwhelmingly larger AI-controlled team composed of 12 ships. The catch is that bot ships will be two tiers lower than each tier represented in the player team.

Are you ready to face these odds?

[h2]Meet Prins van Oranje[/h2]


Our newest Dutch ship doesn't just break up the German Navy's monopoly on "Princes"—it brings a fresh gameplay formula to the table involving the mixture of effective Airstrikes and formidable main battery artillery.

Work in Progress: Update 14.0 Round 2



This is a short overview of the planned features for Update 14.0. 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.

[h2]Operations With Flagships[/h2]


After a great year for Operations, get ready for a 2025 with even more exciting additions to the battle type!

Throughout Update 14.0, you can experience special versions of six Operations, now for high-tier ships. They feature new enemies known as "Flagships", with increased hit points and the ability to influence nearby allies. You'll find these formidable units difficult to take down unless you identify and focus on their specific vulnerabilities.

Three Flagships, each with distinct mechanics, will individually set sail on the virtual seas, one per week, during the first 3 weeks of the update. In the fourth week, things will really heat up when you face all three!

[h2]New Dutch Cruisers in the Tech Tree[/h2]

Update 14.0 ushers a new branch of ships into Early Access! Welcome Dutch light cruisers Jaarsveld (Tier VIII), Menno van Coehoorn (Tier IX), and Utrecht (Tier X).


Features:
  • Numerous low-caliber main battery guns with good range and ballistics
  • Improved HE shell penetration and great AP shell damage
  • Access to small Airstrike squadrons with long range, fast cooldown, and relatively fast bomb arrival time
  • Access to Engine Boost and a fast-cooling Repair Party
  • Weak armor and a small hit point pool


[h2]Adventure of Bjorn Stormbreaker[/h2]

A new adventure awaits you with the release of Update 14.0. Travel with famed adventurer Bjorn Stormbreaker as he battles six powerful fantastical sea creatures!
