Anniversary
Starts: Thu. 03 Sep. 07:00 CEST (UTC+2) Ends: Wed. 30 Sep. 07:00 CEST (UTC+2)
As we cross the threshold of our fifth year, we're marking the occasion by offering you an array of gifts and fresh in-game activities.
Join the celebrations by entering the updated Designer’s Table Port, which has changed a lot over the past year and become even more festive—we've added a cake, postcards, confetti, and ribbons creatively scattered on the table. The collection of ship models has also been updated with new representatives!
First-Victory Bonuses
Be sure to take a careful look at your ship carousel. Ships with a first-victory bonus applied will be marked with a special symbol. During Update 0.9.8, players will be able to receive a festive bonus for their first victories playing specific ships in Random, Co-op, Ranked, and Asymmetric Battles, as well as in Operations.
List of Rewards
Tiers V–VII: 2x World of Warships Anniversary camouflages
Tier VIII: 1x Gift container
Tier IX: 2x Gift containers
Tier X: 1x supercontainer
A Gift container holds five special signals of the same type (Dragon, Red Dragon, Wyvern, Ouroboros, Hydra, Basilisk, Scylla, or Leviathan).
You can receive the first-victory bonus for each ship only once during Update 0.9.8. The bonuses will also be applied to ships purchased, bought back, or dropped from containers during Update 0.9.8.
“Five Epochs of the Navy” Campaign
The new permanent Campaign comprises 50 tasks grouped into five missions, each of which is dedicated to a specific shipbuilding epoch. To finish the Campaign, you'll need to complete tasks playing ships of various tiers: starting from Tier II–IV ships for the first mission, and progressing to Tiers VIII–X for the final mission. Most of the tasks must be completed playing certain ships related to the history of the navy. For example, some of the tasks of the first mission are inspired by the development of battleship building technologies and should be completed playing battleships of this era, such as Steam post imageSteam post image III South Carolina, III Kawachi, IV Gangut, or III Dreadnought —all of which contributed to the adoption of the name given to this period of naval history.
However, you can complete the Campaign, collect all the containers of the new collection, and obtain the final reward by completing the first three tasks of each mission playing any ships of the relevant tiers.
The reward for completing the Campaign is an Epoch permanent camouflage, which can be mounted on any one Tier IX ship, except for IX AL Sov. Rossiya.
The first mission will become available with the release of Update 0.9.8, while those that follow will be unlocked each week.
Please note: you can complete tasks of each mission multiple times. This will allow you to continue earning Stars with each completion, but you'll receive the reward for completing the task for the first time only.
