Asymmetric Battles
This fan-favorite battle type is returning in Update 14.5! Asymmetric Battles pit 12 lower-tier bots against a 5-player team of higher-tier ships.


In these battles, five players take on twelve bots, with the following setup:
- You can play Tier VI–X ships and superships.
- Bot teams consist of ships that are two tiers lower than each tier in the players' team, with exclusion of submarines.
New Experimental Ships
New Experimental Ships Protector, Hotaka, and Varese are entering the game—the second group of these ships, following Metz, Vyazma, and Oregon that dropped anchor in our game earlier this year.



These newcomers are built for close to medium-range brawls with strong secondary battery performance. As they lose HP, their secondary guns gain an improved rate of fire and range.
Summer Festival Event Pass
In Update 14.5, get ready to dive into the spirit of the season with the Summer Festival Event Pass! Celebrate under the sun with exclusive new rewards that capture all the fun and energy of summer.
- In the first progression line, you’ll find rewards such as 3 days of Warships Premium Account, the "Boom!” enemy destruction effect, and Commander Marina Carmen Fernández with an individual voiceover.
- Unlocking the second progression line brings the Pin-Up Summer permanent camouflage, cruiser Duca d’Aosta, and a total of 150 Summer Tokens that can be used to progress through the dedicated event in the Armory.
