Cyber Holidays: Journey to the Future, Winter Fleet, and More!

Celebrate the holidays with a cyberpunk twist! Starting December 16, you can travel to the future city of New York 2125 and enjoy plenty of new content, including new ships, futuristic skins, Commander guises, and more. Plus, don’t miss our special gift, the new Advent Calendar, the return of the Winter Fleet, and our new collection. More details below!

Your New Year’s Gift 

Time to unwrap your gift! From December 16 through January 27, claim the “New Year's Present” free bundle in the Store to receive lots of goods, including Cybercents and Spectral Vault crates, which have high chances of dropping a Premium ship (keep reading to learn more about this new content). You'll also gain access to the “Happy Shipmas!” mission, which will bring you even more rewards. 

Journey to New York 2125 

Welcome to New York 2125! We’re sure you’ll like it here among neon signs and peculiar people. Before we start our journey through the city, stock up on Cybercents, the local currency that will allow you to buy anything here: ships, Commander guises, camouflages, and more. This is where you can obtain Cybercents: 

• New Year's Present free bundle in the Store (500 Cybercents) 
• “The Best Form of Offence” campaign (3,000 Cybercents without the Admiralty Backing + 4,500 Cybercents with the Admiralty Backing) 
• Neon Holidays Calendar (1,000 Cybercents) 
• Weekly Assignments (250 Cybercents each week)
• Bundles with Spectral Vault crates in the Store 

Now it’s time to visit the shiny city Port and take a look at these ships and their owners! 

Ruggiero di Lauria is our new Italian Legendary battleship, and she stands out with her huge 457 mm guns, ready to fire SAP shells that deal some of the highest alpha damage per shell in the game! You’ll definitely appreciate her impressive speed of up to 35 knots, as well as her great concealment. R. Lauria is available in the Store for Cybercents. She comes in a bundle with a special skin that transforms her into Angela Lutti's sleek ship, Vendetta Rossa, and features a counter of defeated enemies.  

And here she is—Angela Lutti, a special auditor for Legend INC, based in New York 2125. Her audits often lead to financial ruin, earning her both fear and admiration. Angela Lutti is a Commander guise available for Cybercents. It’s compatible with any nation and includes red-colored shell tracers, signal flare for horn sounding, and fireworks for activating Legendary skills. It also provides a +30% bonus to Global XP when you hit enemy ships 50 times with main battery guns (can be applied once per day). 

The second ship you can find in the Port of New York 2125 is Dmitry Pozharsky, the new Soviet Tier VII Premium cruiser. This ship is armed solely with AP shells that offer great penetration capabilities and improved ricochet angles. Her fast-reloading guns allow her to deal quite impressive damage per minute. You can obtain D. Pozharsky in the Store for Cybercents. She comes in a bundle with a skin that not only features a counter tracking sunk enemies but also transforms the ship into Raider 2090—the weathered vessel of Alexander R.-G., another character you'll meet in New York 2125. 

Alexander, once chief of a security team for government officials, now lives as a mercenary in New York 2125. He's a calm and self-confident leader, capable of making quick decisions in critical moments. Alexander R.-G. is a Commander guise available in the Store for Cybercents. It’s compatible with Commanders from any nation and includes yellow-colored shell tracers, signal flare for horn sounding, and fireworks for activating Legendary skills. It also provides a +20% bonus to Ship XP when you deal 30,000 damage to enemy ships (can be applied once per day). 

One more new ship awaits you: French Tier V Premium cruiser Dupleix, a heavy sniper with long-range guns complemented by the Main Battery Reload Booster and a very solid HP pool. Dupleix is also available in the Store for Cybercents. 

Spectral Vault Crates 

Spectral Vaults are special crates inspired by the cyberpunk world. They function similarly to the Ultimate Crates and Santa crates you might recall from our past events. There are five versions of Spectral Vault crates, each offering a chance to unlock a Premium ship or another Spectral Vault of a higher version (except for Spectral Vault 5.0, which is the apex crate). Version 3.0 and higher crates also offer unique opportunities to obtain rare ships available exclusively from special New Year crates, including Jean Bart, Lenin, and Ohio.

Here's what each version can drop, in addition to various in-game goods: 

• Spectral Vault 1.0: Tier IV–VI Premium ship or Spectral Vault 2.0 or 3.0   
• Spectral Vault 2.0: Tier IV–VII Premium ship or Spectral Vault 3.0 or 4.0 
• Spectral Vault 3.0: Tier V–VIII Premium ship, Legendary ship, or Spectral Vault 4.0 or 5.0 
• Spectral Vault 4.0: Tier V–VIII Premium ship, Legendary ship, or Spectral Vault 5.0 
• Spectral Vault 5.0: Tier VI–VIII Premium ship or Legendary ship 

You can obtain some of these crates through the main campaign, various missions during the update, the New Year’s Present free bundle, Windroses for Legendary ships, and the Store. 

Neon Holidays Calendar 

The new Advent Calendar launches on December 16! Complete its daily tasks for 4 weeks to receive lots of rewards. The final prize is another Commander guise from New York 2125—Ultima Starlight, a renowned singer, actor, and fashion icon in this city of the future. This Commander guise is compatible with Commanders from any nation and includes blue-colored shell tracers, signal flare for horn sounding, and fireworks for activating Legendary skills. It also provides a +50% bonus to credit gains in battle when you earn 50 ribbons of any type in one battle (can be applied once per day). 

After the initial 4 weeks, you’ll have 2 more weeks to catch up and complete the Calendar—until January 27. If you miss a day, you can unlock it for free (up to 7 days) or for 250 doubloons per day. 

Below is the full list of rewards for completing the Calendar:

White Ships 

Meet this year’s Winter Fleet, featuring new winter versions of Östergötland, New Orleans, and Constellation! They all have the same characteristics as their original versions, except that Östergötland W and New Orleans W are Premium ships instead of Tech Tree ships. All three new ships will be available in the Store starting December 16. One more new winter ship, Hermes W, will be available for Captains who complete the Shipbuilding collection.

Winter ships from previous holiday seasons will also be available in the Store, and buying some of them will grant you a nice bonus of Cybercents. You'll find some of the winter ships in chained bundles:

• Neon Snowfall bundle: The first bundle, featuring Spectral Vault 1.0, is completely free, and the final one includes winter ship Guépard W. All bundles following the first one are offered at a significant discount, and some of them can be purchased for credits and Global XP.
• Snowy Saga bundle: Includes two winter ships, Hyuga W and Kutuzov W. All bundles offer discounted content compared to individual purchases. 

Shipbuilding Collection 

Welcome a new collection of cards describing the shipbuilding process, illustrated through the example of an American large cruiser design from the World War II era. The collection consists of 12 cards, grouped into three sets. You’ll find the cards in Shipbuilding Collection crates, obtainable from December 16 through January 27 through the main campaign (15x crates) and in the Store for Cybercents. Here are the rewards for completing each set and the entire collection: 

• Creating a Ship set — 1x Commendation  
• Banners set — 1x Spectral Vault 2.0  
• Shipyard Machinery set — 1x Insignia 
• Full collection — Premium winter version of British Tier III aircraft carrier Hermes 

This new Premium winter version of Hermes has the same characteristics as the original ship.
