Welcome to Our 10th Anniversary Update!
In Update 14.8, we're celebrating World of Warships' 10th Anniversary! Before you dig in to the feast of celebratory activities, consider having a look through our update article for the full change log. You'll find info about:
- Various Anniversary activities, including special login rewards, Festive Rewards for activating Battle Performance Bonuses, and an interactive new Port.
- The Early Access event for a new branch of German cruisers with manually controlled secondary guns.
- The return of Asymmetric Battles and the introduction of a nostalgia-inducing new temporary battle type—Blast From the Past!
- Gameplay changes, including a rework of how ship modules take damage and the introduction of submarines to Operations.
- And more!
Relive the Old Days in Blast From the Past!
For our 10th Anniversary, we're harking back to a simpler time when the virtual seas were populated only by battleships, cruisers, and destroyers—no carriers or subs!
The battle type is structured into six chapters, with the first five themed around specific years in the game's life. Each chapter restricts gameplay to only the ships and maps available up to that particular year.
The final chapter features the current full selection of maps and nearly all available ships, but a new layer of restrictions specifically targets ships possessing advanced mechanics.

Anniversary Activities
Activities—and rewards—abound in Update 14.8! You can get started by simply logging in to claim your daily bonus, which may be a Supercontainer, Coal, days of Warships Premium Account, or Festive Tokens!
What are Festive Tokens? They're an Armory currency you can use to unlock Festive Rewards, which include new Japanese cruiser Kushiro, up to 130 Supercontainers, and the This Is Fine enemy destruction effect.
You can earn a large number of Festive Tokens by activating Battle Performance Bonuses, and to do that, you'll need to earn cumulative Base XP on each of your ships, with the amount needed depending on the ship tier.
And finally, be sure to check out the Decade Dock Port—plenty of Easter eggs and interactive elements are waiting to be discovered!

Recruiting Station Anniversary Blowout!
What better time to invite your friends to play World of Warships than during our gift-laden 10th Anniversary update!
Recruiting Station Changes
Thanks to brand-new changes to the Recruiting Station mechanics, it's now easier than ever to invite new and former players to become your Shipmates. Now, every player with fewer than 100 battles on record is eligible for recruitment!
On top of that, all the first-time rewards you get as a Recruiter have been reset! That means seasoned Recruiters can once again claim rewards for performing these simple actions:
- First login to the Recruiting Station
- First invite link share
- Three invite link shares
- First Shipmate
Recruiting Surge Event
Take advantage of these quality-of-life changes to accumulate Expedition Tokens in the new Recruiting Surge event, which offers guaranteed rewards for completing simple Recruiting Station actions. Get involved and celebrate the game's 10th Anniversary in-battle with your Shipmates to earn even more!
