World of Warships Receives a New Soviet Pack Update
In case you've ever wanted to use Soviet-era ships in the middle of World Of Warships combat, now you have your chance with a new update. Wargaming released the 0.8.3 update for their popular naval battle game that just added a ton of ships that harken back to the era of the Cold War. Check out the details below along with the trailer to show them off in action!
With the launch of update 0.8.3, players will be able to participate in the Victory competition by picking one of two teams to fight for each day: Glory or Honor. Players can earn Allowance tokens that can be traded in the Armory for exclusive rewards, such as Tier VII Soviet premium cruiser Lazo, Victory camouflage, or containers with a chance to unlock one of four new Russian battleships. The next day, the winning team will have to accomplish even more difficult challenges, but will earn more valuable rewards as well.
The new Tier V Pyotr Velikiy, Tier VI Izmail, Tier VII Sinop, and Tier VIII Vladivostok are made for daring players. Contrary to their other nations' counterparts, these heavily armored ships are equipped with powerful caliber guns and are best used at close to medium ranges. This aggressive design will allow players to punch through the enemy lines, leading the way for their fleet and dealing massive damage to their opponents in the process.
Anime fans will also be pleased to see the return of the Azure Lane collaboration, with the addition of 2 new ships and 15 unique commanders inspired from the game's most popular characters. Legendary mecha designer Makoto Kobayashi also makes his return in World of Warships by designing a brand new permanent camouflage for the Japanese Tier X battleship Yamato.
Yamato, one of the most iconic warships, also received a facelift. After conducting additional research, World of Warships' engineers managed to update the ship model with even more detail, meaning that Yamato now looks exactly the same as she did when she set off to her final battle.
