Mode Shuffle 2.0
The dynamic battle type that randomly places you in one of three different game modes has returned for Update 13.9, with some interesting changes. Alongside Convoy and Airship Escort, you could land in a game of Epicenter, which has had a fair few tweaks to its points system, and that is taking the place of Arms Race from our previous iteration of Mode Shuffle.
German-Themed Event Pass
Update 13.9's event pass, titled "Unity, Justice, Freedom" pays homage to Germany's Reunification Day both in name and in content:
- The first progression line includes "Black, Red, and Gold" and "Black, White, Red" permanent camouflages, the German Navy permanent camouflage for Prinz Heinrich, and the German Eagle permanent camouflage for Prinz Rupprecht
- The second progression line can be unlocked with 2,500 Doubloons, and grants tier VI destroyer Karl von Schönberg immediately, followed by the German Navy permanent camouflage for Zieten, Commander Willie Neumann, 1x German Squadron Premium container, and the German Eagle permanent camouflage for Schlieffen
Red October Bounty Hunt
Will you sign up to be a Bounty, or will you be a dedicated hunter? Either way, you can take home some Soviet-themed rewards for taking part in our latest Bounty Hunt event!
The Bounty status can be purchased up to 80 times from the Armory for 100,000 Credits, with the first three purchases being free. You lose the Bounty status when your ship gets destroyed or the event ends.
You can get a temporary currency called Red Tokens if you earn special achievements, as well as for destroying ships while having the Bounty status active. You can spend Red Tokens on variety of rewards including Soviet Era containers, which can drop new Soviet cruiser Kozma Minin among other things!
Red October Leaderboard
During the first week of the event, we'll be tracking progress on a leaderboard—sink as many Bounties as possible to claim valuable rewards, depending on your final ranking:- 1-10: tier VIII submarine S-189
- 11-25: get 3x Soviet Era Premium containers
- 26-50: 1,000 Steel
The Battle of Leyte Gulf
We're marking the 80th anniversary of the largest naval encounter of World War II with an interactive adventure and opportunities to get legendary Tier VIII carrier Enterprise and new tier VIII battleship Tennessee!
As you advance through the adventure, you will learn the history of this battle as you complete missions and earn new Leyte Gulf containers and Leyte tokens, the latter of which you can exchange for containers guaranteed to drop Tier VI–IX Premium ships, the "I Shall Return" permanent camouflage for Tennessee, the Ghost of the Pacific permanent camouflage for Enterprise, as well as eight 10-skill-point historical Commanders, and more
