Wargaming, the publisher and developer of the leading naval multiplayer World of Warships, is sailing all around the world in its latest update. Packed with content, this update sees Japanese Tier IX battleship Daisen in the Dockyard, an exotic new map of the Seychelles added into the game, plus a collection themed around the Allied powers of World War II. On top of this, hololive production makes a return to the game, with four new VTuber Commanders to take the lead in battle.
Daisen Drops Anchor in the Dockyard
A new challenge kicks off in the Kure Dockyard, with the construction of Japanese Tier IX Battleship Daisen. Sitting at the end of a 34-stage shipbuilding process, which includes plenty of combat missions, Daisen is a worthy prize to pursue. The vessel boasts high speeds, eight accurate 410mm guns, and four high-reach quadruple torpedo tubes to impart significant damage, all of which more than make up for the ship’s less robust armour and hit points. To make the construction site a bit more festive, the Kure Port has been decorated in celebration of this undertaking.
Sail into the Seychelles
Expanding the horizons of Warships’ waters, a new map of the tropical Seychelles Islands has been introduced in Update 12.3. Bearing strong resemblance to the mountainous islands of Praslin and La Digue, this new, leafy green map will be available for both Random and Co-op Battles. Ships spanning Tier V-IX can compete in Domination mode with four key areas, scattered across the map in two different variations.
A New Allied Heroes Collection
World of Warships also welcomes a themed “Allied Heroes” Collection in dedication to the end of World War II in Europe. With 12 different elements to collect, players who complete each section will be rewarded with corresponding Commanders for the allied nations, each equipped with 10 skill points. These elements can be found through new “Allied Heroes” containers, which are obtainable for credits and free XP in the Armory. Sitting at the end of the entire collection is a redeemable three-days of Warships Premium Account.
Say Hello to hololive production
Closing out Update 12.3’s content drop, hololive production characters make a return to the game. Four Japanese virtual bloggers (VTubers) join the ranks of Commanders. Choose from different commanders including Watson Amelia and Takanashi Kiara, who are each equipped with their own unique voiceover, to take the helm in battle. Alongside these new additions, this partnership also introduces a special expendable camouflage and a commemorative flag.
