Debut of Fleet Battles
Fleet Battles are here! You can compete against other Fleets in 5-player Divisions each Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday during the new update. We'll provide more info in a dedicated article next week!
We've also changed the Fleet enhancement system: Port of Steel now has additional 4th and 5th upgrade levels, while all other enhancements have an additional 5th level. The upgrade costs have been altered as well, and you will see a new "daily wins for Oil" counter. Oil acquisition has slightly changed: you'll now receive 15 instead of 10 Oil for each daily win, but you'll only receive 10 instead of 20 Oil for each obtained crate. Meanwhile, Training Rooms can now be password-protected, meaning that you can be specific about who can join you in any rooms you create.
Please note: This feature is not yet available for the mobile version of Legends.
British Alternate Battleships: Full Access
The arrival of Tier VIII Duncan heralds the full availability of the new line of Royal Navy battleships in the Tech Tree! Go research them: the mix of big guns, high speed, and new turning torpedoes offers unique gameplay possibilities. If you want to know more about them, look no further.
Brawl: It's Time to Fight!
Three seasons await you, with tweaked rules for each, including the return of no-torpedo destroyer fights! The first season—for Tier VI battleships—starts on November 20. We'll take a detailed look at each Brawl season closer to this date.

New Ship of the Update

Balance Changes
This time, there are A LOT: Schlieffen nerf (!), Shimakaze nerf (!!), and that's only the start! Read in depth about everything here.
Bug Fixes
All Platforms
Fixed a bug that caused firing sounds not to play with the Pestilent Varg skin mounted.
Console
Fixed instances of incorrect depiction of newly created Training Rooms.
Mobile
Fixed an incorrect depiction of Bureau Projects in cases when there were not enough resources to acquire them.
Other
- Minor updates to the armor models on turrets for Elbing, Dunkerque, and Strasbourg.
-
Ship traits changed and added:
- Several ships have had their ship overview traits updated with the new "Big and Flammable" trait. Congress, Alaska, Graf Spee, and Graf Spee B had their "Big Guns" trait replaced with "Big and Flammable"; Stalingrad had her "Flair for Piercing" trait replaced with "Big and Flammable." Hampshire has had her "Surgical Shell" trait replaced with "Sticky Shot."
Traits do not impact a ship's performance; they only describe aspects of the ship. For the balance changes made to some of these ships, please see the Ministry of Balance article.
- We've added the ability to create permanent historical camouflages. You can find the list of ships that can mount these camouflages in our Ministry of Balance article, as well as a list of balance changes. You can now melt craftable camouflages down into Paint. Type 1, 2, 3, 4 camos, as well as the Hunter camo, all now provide the same bonus to incoming fire dispersion and concealment—4.5% for both characteristics.
- The Campaign menu has been visually reworked.
- Remodeled the Post-Battle Statistics screen appearance—take a look for yourself!
