Keeping with the best traditions of the series, World of Warships will offer a straightforward interface, easy-to-use controls, and a common economic system that will allow players to distribute resources between the three games for the ultimate progress in each of them.

The large assortment of available warships will give various tactical opportunities, as all the machines have a unique combination of firepower, speed, armor, and endurance. Various naval maps with changing weather conditions will enrich the gameplay, and the realistic graphics will transport players into the epic battles that changed the course of human history.

You will move through tiers of ships trying out various legendary vehicles in the process and training your commanders to best accommodate available sets of weaponry and hull characteristics. Choose from two types of shells, launch torpedoes and outsmart your opponents. If you like blunt force, several ships will cater to your interests as well, be it destroyers that can stealthily approach the enemies or battleships with high risk/high reward salvos, which take a long time to reload, but wreak havoc if targeted well. Cruisers are the jacks of all trades that will be appreciated by players looking for a middle ground. 

When it comes to nations, World of Warships currently has 10 represented in the game. Major ones are: Japan, USA, USSR, Germany, Britain and France. There are also selected vehicles available for the Pan-Asian, Polish, Italian and Commonwealth navies. The number of ships in the game is always growing and you should be able to find something suitable to your playstyle pretty easily.

The April Fool's event begins next week in World of Warships: Legends, bringing captains to space for the first time in the Stellar Clash gamemode. It'll be a chaotic free-for-all on the edge of the known galaxy, defending against the Invaders.

Starting March 22 players will get to take command of three spaceships to defend the stars: The mighty battleship Alldestroyer, multi-purpose cruiser Galaxy, and the high-speed destroyer Rover. Three commanders are lined up to helm these spaceships: John Luke Pickup for the Alldestroyer, Shelly Beapley for the Galaxy, and Space Fishy for the Rover. Their fully-upgraded skills and abilities will be vital to winning in Stellar Clash, captains should pick their skills carefully!

Each battle will consist of nine players plus a swarm of Invaders vying for control of the system. As a solo captain, players will have to become the last ship standing, or take control of the capture circle to win. There are plenty of boosts available to grab throughout the map to help improve your ship as well, ranging from heals to better reload time. Each match will challenge captain's skills in dealing with multiple enemies and situations, pushing them to adapt to an ever-changing battlefield.

Battling the Invaders will net players "Stellar Chips," which can be used to unlock all kinds of permanent space skins for many different ships, as well as getting the aforementioned event commanders for your regular seagoing fleet! There are a bunch of Stellar Clash themed skins and items awaiting, but also the rare premium destroyer Yukikaze for intrepid captains who earn enough Chips to command her.

Get a taste of space battles before April 12!

It's going to be a wild ride for April Fool's in World of Warships: Legends, so strap in and prepare to turn the tide!

There are 7 tiers of ships in total and you begin at tier I with late XIX to early XX century cruisers. Vehicle tiers can be separated in two distinct timelines - tiers I-IV belong to the "dreadnought era", while everything from tier V and above is grouping the WWII ships.  After playing several battles with them and getting acquainted with controls and basic mechanics, you'll move over to tier II cruisers, that are faster, better armed, more sturdy and have a choice of armament (high-explosive or armor-piercing shells). From there you'll be able to branch out into the destroyers which are all about stealth and high risk-high reward gameplay. Tier III will allow you to try out the battleships which bring huge salvos and armor, yet lack in maneuverability.

Maps are square with sizes range from 24x24 km to 18X18 km. Smaller maps are usually reserved for lower tiers, bigger - for higher. The maps are quite different both in size and island distribution. You will see all kinds of landscapes: from the icebergs of Arctic to the tropics of southeast Asia.

World of Warships: Legends is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
