News
World of Warships has been around for awhile, so it's time to party. The team at Wargaming is doing so with a special update for the game, which features a ton of great content. Log on and secure your rewards today, and check out what all the update entails below.
September 1st, 2025 - Wargaming, the developer and publisher of the leading historically accurate naval multiplayer game World of Warships, is celebrating ten years on the high seas. To celebrate the last decade of naval warfare, September’s update is packed with content, offering plenty of free rewards including Supercontainers and ships, the arrival of a new Easter Egg filled port, and the addition of German Cruisers into Early Access. Rounding out the festivities, the update also brings a classic Blast from the Past game mode that immerses players throughout different eras of the game, and new seasons of Clan and Ranked battles.
Celebrating 10 years with a wave of anniversary content
Over the last decade, World of Warships has continued to grow its global playerbase, delivering over 800 historically accurate ships to take into battle, and amassing over 1.2 billion hours of playtime. Beyond the game, World of Warships has worked to support a variety of charities, including Save the Children and Help for Heroes, working with the community to raise over $240,000, and to push initiatives such as Longest Night of Museums - World of Warships’s annual livestream dedicated to educating viewers about naval museums around the globe.
To celebrate the milestone anniversary, World of Warships is ushering in a month packed with free ships, bonuses and more. By logging in each day, players can earn rewards on the Daily Login Calendar, which include Supercontainers, Coal, Credits, free experience, days of Premium Account access, and Festive Tokens. Also available through Battle Performance Bonuses, these Tokens can be redeemed in the Armory for up to 130 Supercontainers; including “Finest Hour”, “Resolute and Rapid”, “The Age of Sa Zhenbing” or “Battle of Paso De Patria” Containers; plus an array of ships, including Tier X Japanese Premium heavy cruiser Kushiro.
The festivities continue with a huge array of free Containers, each bringing a variety of rare ships. Amongst these are a special 10th Anniversary Gift Container, which guarantees a Tier VI ship, and a Premium Ship VII Container, which can be earned through the 10th anniversary Event Pass. Long time players can also look forward to additional Containers, including a Premium Ship VIII Elite Container for players with over five years and 25 battles under their belt, and a Premium Ship X Elite Container for those who have been with the game for the last decade.
Experience a Blast from the Past in a new limited-time game mode and Port
For the 10th anniversary, World of Warships is also bringing in a new limited-time game mode for players to test their mettle. Blast from the Past takes players down memory lane, as it removes aircraft carriers and submarines to offer players the original World of Warships experience, as it was at launch a decade ago. Structured across six chapters, each phase offers an insight into the history of World of Warships, restricting gameplay, ships, and maps to those only seen during that era. The final chapter brings it all together, with a new set of restrictions for players to overcome.
A brand-new nostalgic Decade Dock Port also arrives, bringing ten years' worth of Easter Eggs to find, and a journal detailing the game’s history over the past decade. A new version of the Update Navigator in the Port will also share the latest news and features, whilst offering players the opportunity to view a personalised Career Report, breaking down their stats across battles and time played.
A new line of German Cruisers dock into Early Access
World of Warships’ 10th anniversary update also sees the arrival of new German Cruisers in Early Access, including Tier VI heavy cruiser Deutschland, Tier VII heavy cruiser Admiral Scheer, Tier VIII heavy cruiser Knesebeck, Tier IX heavy cruiser Manteuffel, and Tier X heavy cruiser Prinz Adalbert. In addition to these vessels, Knesebeck, Manteuffel, and Prinz Adalbert will also receive three permanent camouflages to celebrate their arrival.
Each of these German vessels specialises in close-quarters combat, using their large main battery guns to inflict heavy damage. While their accuracy is optimised for close-range combat, they come equipped with improved Secondary Batteries that you can take active control of to make up for their short range. As is typical with German ships, they are also bundled with Improved Hydroacoustic Search and high defense, making these powerful adversaries on the high seas.
Closing out the update, World of Warships will see the continuation of the “In the Name of Tomorrow” campaign, the return of Asymmetric Battles, a Module Damage Rework, Submarines arriving in Operations, and new seasons of Clan and Ranked Battles.
