World of Battleships is a free-to-play naval action MMO that shifts players to the territory of 20th century warships. Dive into the massive naval battles and tame the overwhelming power of multiton titans to conquer the hard-line high seas!
The game provides numerous strategic opportunities for combat. Sudden strikes from cover, cunning flanking attacks or open head-to-head encounters — every player will have dozens of tactics to choose from. And don’t forget about the team! It’s the joint effort and efficient cooperation that will give your fleet near invincibility against the enemy attacks.

Keeping with the Best Traditions
The already familiar credits, gold, and experience featured in World of Tanks and World of Warplanes will allow you to rapidly get into the game, and the common economic system will give you an option to distribute your resources between the three projects for ultimate progress in each of them.
The free-to-play system will allow to try World of Battleships free of charge, the straightforward interface will help the player get directly into the combat, and simple controls will make allow the player to concentrate destroying their enemy in an epic naval battle.

Multiple Warships to Choose from
The players have three main classes of ships at their disposal :
- Aircraft carriers that provide both naval and air support
- Battleships and heavy cruisers able to scarify the enemy with their looks alone
- Light destroyers with speed and agility as their strongest points
All the machines have their unique combination of firepower, speed, armor, and endurance. A pack of nimble destroyers will tire out their opponents, huge battleships can batter down any target with a couple of main caliber salvos, aircraft carriers are capable of covering the allies from air or routing an aircraft cell towards the enemy.

Battle Areas Variety
Various naval maps with changing weather conditions will enrich the gameplay, and the realistic graphics will transport players into the epic battles that changed the course of human history.

Q : How will matches be constructed? About how long will each match take? Will they be modeled after historical situations? How many ships can participate in any one battle?
R : We’ve chosen 15-minute fights, where each team will include a mixed roster of different ships controlled by 15 people. I didn’t say “15 ships in each team”, because, as I mentioned before, one player will be able to control several ships at a time. This means that if all 30 players step into one battle with destroyers, we’ll observe a simultaneous fight of 120 machines. But this will be a very rare case.  
 
Q : What kinds of clan support will the game support? How do you foresee people cooperating in the game?
R : I’ll start with the last one, if you don’t mind. In World of Battleships, we have four classes of ships. They are absolutely different in terms of gameplay: each class has a rather clearly defined role in a battle. Secondly, the total number of ships in a battle exceeds the total number of tanks in a WoT battle and planes in WoWP. Your victory will depend both on personal skills and your ability to act together with your teammates. That’s why the sooner players study the behavior of ships, the better they will understand how to reach overall victory.
Regards the global battle for territories, Clans from the three titles will be able to cooperate and help each other. In-game diplomacy will move on to an entirely new footing and become by far more intricate, and thus the most exciting.
 
Q : Do you have a release date for the game yet? When can we expect to see a beta signup?
R : World of Battleships will start recruiting testers as soon as we make sure we have something worthy to showcase. Most likely, you’ll get a chance to sign up for the CBT in 2012. As for the release date, I can’t say anything for sure yet.
