After successfully dominating the land and skies with World of Tanks and World of Warplanes, developer Wargaming set their sights on the open seas. World of Warships officially launched in 2015, bringing Wargaming’s unique brand of semi-historical machine combat to naval warfare.

It didn’t take long for me to realize that World of Warships was a completely different experience from Tanks and Warplanes. World of Tanks lets players duke it out in varied environments where object placement and terrain have tactical value. World of Warplanes puts you in the cockpit of a metal bird flying through the skies at hundreds of miles an hour. But in World of Warships, there’s nothing standing between you and a torpedo. You’re a lumbering, floating hunk of metal with an explosive payload and maybe a few inches of armor.

There are four ship types that all offer completely unique styles of play. All have different speeds, can equip different weapon types — they even have armor in different places, so what might be an effective hit against one ship could mean nothing to another. And your ships can be equipped with a variety of loadouts and special equipment to boost their repair capabilities or offer wider scouting capacity.

Aircraft carriers are the weirdest ship type and play nothing like the others. Instead of engaging directly in ship-to-ship combat, carriers sit in the back lines launching squadrons of bomb-toting aircraft to wreak havoc from the skies. In theory, carriers are meant to add a touch of Wargaming’s other massively multiplayer game, World of Warplanes, to World of Warships.

World of Warships is a free-to-play multiplayer action game developed by Wargaming. In the game, players control a variety of different types of ships and engage in intense naval battles with other players from around the world.

This is a subjective question and depends on individual preferences. Some players enjoy the fast-paced action, strategic gameplay, and the variety of ships available in World of Warships. Others may not enjoy the game as much due to its learning curve, grind-oriented progression, and pay-to-win elements.

World of Warships features a variety of different types of ships, including cruisers, destroyers, battleships, and carriers. The game also offers multiple game modes, including random battles, co-op battles, and ranked battles. Additionally, World of Warships offers a comprehensive tech tree, allowing players to upgrade and customize their ships as they progress through the game.

The community in World of Warships is generally friendly and helpful, although as with any online multiplayer game, there can be some toxic players. The game has a large player base, and many players form clans and play with friends.
