[h2]Celebrate 9 Years of World of Warships![/h2]
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!
[h3]Claim Anniversary Rewards[/h3]
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!
[h3]Earn Festive Tokens With Battle Performance Bonuses[/h3]
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.
[h3]Festive Event Pass[/h3]
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.
[h2]Battle of Paso de Patria Collection[/h2]
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.
[h2]Operations Update[/h2]
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!
