World of Warships News

Dear players!

Earlier we announced that we would soon be giving all players from the CIS realm an opportunity to stay with Wargaming and continue playing World of Warships via Steam. Since that announcement we’ve been carefully monitoring your feedback and fine-tuning the transfer procedure to ensure the maximum comfort for all players. We want to thank you for your questions and concerns as it helped us understand which aspects of the transfer need to be improved.

Now, we are ready to announce that the transfer procedure will start on September 20, 2022.

We fully understand that this decision might not be an easy one and you might have a lot of extra questions about the transfer. We will try our best to cover as much information as possible tomorrow.

The World of Warships Anniversary celebrations have inspired us to stage a mega video marathon on our beloved game’s official YouTube channel!

Get ready to absorb an abundance of the most riveting game footage and historical explorations the Internet has to offer for a whopping 24 hours! Ships and battles, fleets of different countries, maritime traditions and, of course—our favorite game!

We'll show you the inner workings of how we create the game, share some behind-the-scenes episodes from the shooting stage, and eventually embark on a unique underwater journey together!

Stay on the lookout for rewards and grab them right as you watch! As part of the available bounty, you can look forward to bonus codes for a variety of in-game loot, as well as special bonus codes for those who are contemplating starting their Captain’s career in World of Warships or those who simply haven’t played the game for a long time.

Unsinkable Sam is one of the most famous cats in the navy and a favorite of our Captains.

This remarkable cat managed to survive the demise of three ships—German battleship Bismarck, British destroyer Cossack, and aircraft carrier Ark Royal. We suggest delving into his story!
