'World Of Warships' Celebrates The Yule-Tide With Festive Activities And Rewards

by Rainier on Dec. 1, 2025 @ 12:11 p.m. PST

World Of Warships is a free-to-play naval action MMO based on sea battles of the 20th century that complete the "World of" war trilogy.

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.

World of Warships publisher/developer Wargaming is celebrating the festive season with activities and rewards for players across PC, console, and mobile.

Players on PC can look forward to a new Advent Calendar and Festive Event Pass, plenty of seasonally themed camouflages and ships, and the return of a decorable Christmas Tree in Nordlyshavn Port. The festive fun continues for players on console and mobile in World of Warships: Legends, with the introduction of Santa City Port, Merry Tokens to unlock Christmas-themed rewards, Mystic Crates, and a Merry Shipmas campaign featuring two Legendary ships up for grabs.

World of Warships Welcomes a Flurry of Festivities with New Advent Calendar and Event Pass

The festive season is in full swing across World of Warships in the December update, brimming with seasonal activities and themed rewards. From December 1st, players can claim a free tech tree Tier IX ship on login, alongside two Santa’s Gift Containers and two Christmas themed permanent camouflage. The rewards continue with a new Advent Calendar available throughout the entirety of December, as well as a Festive Event pass featuring two chapters and bursting with prizes including Santa’s gift Containers, camouflages and Tier VII cruisers Nurnberg'44 and Lanzhou.

Nordlyshavn Port also returns this year with an updated look, with a Christmas Tree waiting to be decorated. Players can unlock ornaments for every two battles played, with no daily limits, and special rewards await for those who have placed 10 ornaments on their tree, and have collected all 24.

In addition to these festive additions comes a brand new map, Sunset Isles, available for Random Battles and select Co-op Battles for ships Tier VI and above. December’s update also sees the start of construction of Tier IX French battleship Roussillon in the Dockyard, and the first week of the update gives players their last chance to finish building Liberty Harbor. Both Asymmetric battles and the Temporal Rift event continue, joined by a new season of Clan Battles, and the return of the Steel Fleet Event featuring six powerful ships including three brand new ships of Tier X, the Japanese battleship Aki, the German cruiser Bremen and the American cruiser Hawaii.

Amongst these are new Frozen skins, new Commander guises including Unfreezable Sam, and Mystic Crates that may bestow players with rare and Special Edition ships including the new Incomparable, Aki, and Marceau.

December’s Legendary update also sees three new Tier VI-VIII Japanese hybrid battleships, Ise, Suwo and Dewa, sail into Early Access, available through Japanese Hybrid Battleship Crates.

These ships wield not only intense firepower, but are capable of executing airstrikes–armed with aircraft carrying an impressive haul of torpedoes. Closing out the update is the return of War Tales, with two new operations, including a special mission to help Santa. With the ability to play through all previous Tales, players will also be able to try out a new type of high-explosive shell that splits into multiple subshells, causing significant damage.
