Did someone say “Free ship”?!

Unlock the ship via the Free DLC below and head directly into battle with her and you’ll earn a bonus Steam container!

[h2]D-Day[/h2]


In honor of this incredible military operation, three new Operations are coming to World of Warships in a new event battle type!

Starts: May 30

The first Operation will be available in Update 13.4, while the second and third Operations will become available in Update 13.5. Each Operation will last for 2 weeks, feature Tier V–VII ships, and accommodate up to 6 players in a Division.



In the first Operation, you'll take command of the Allied vanguard spearheading the landings on Utah Beach. You'll have to fight through enemy naval forces and suppress coastal defenses to ensure the safe arrival of your landing craft.

As part of the Operations commemorating D-Day, we're introducing a special event mechanic called "Classified Documents." These provide bonuses against specific enemy types, and they come in three different levels: Confidential, Secret, and Top Secret, with each level providing additional bonuses.

[h2]Azur Lane Wave 6[/h2]


World of Warships and Azur Lane are joining forces once again! Update 13.4 will welcome the Sixth Wave of our collaboration! This time, the already impressive list of Azur Lane Commanders will be joined by five newcomers with individual voiceovers: Shimakaze, Ägir, Hornet, Queen Elizabeth, and Fusō; moreover, three new ships will be added to the game—AL Shimakaze, AL Ägir, and AL Hornet, as well as commemorative flags for the new ships.

[h3]Azur Lane Event Pass[/h3]


But that's not all! Update 13.4 brings a new thematic Event Pass that features new content from the Azur Lane collaboration!

"Among the special rewards of the first progression line, you'll be able to obtain Azur Lane containers, an Azur Lane permanent camouflage for
Queen Elizabeth, plus Commander Queen Elizabeth with an individual voiceover and 10 skill points."

[h2]New Brawl Format![/h2]

• Format: 5v5; Tier X ships.
  
• Ship type restrictions: 1 submarine, 2 battleships, 3 destroyers, 4 cruisers. No aircraft carriers allowed.
