Independence Day: Fireworks & BB(Q)s

June 21, 2022

Captains, it's time to celebrate freedom! The traditional 4th of July festivities are coming in hot this update—here's the full list of activities and content waiting for y'all to check out!

Dum Spiro Spero

This free mission, obtainable in the Store from June 23 through July 18, provides American Tier III Premium battleship South Carolina as the final reward. To get her and the other goods, make sure to complete the assignment by July 25. This dreadnought with eight powerful guns is covered in the Through the Spy Glass article as well.

Store Discounts

If you're interested in BBs (and BBQs, too?), there's more we can offer! Discount for ~~Alabama;~~ Oklahoma; ~~and the comeback of last summer's campaign ship, Georgia,~~ are on the table, as well as rotating XXL bundles and themed camos for a wider selection of ships. Check the Store each week to get hold of the full range of goods!

Lucky Six campaign

This update's campaign—Lucky Six—focuses on Tier VII Premium destroyer Black and Tier V Premium aircraft carrier Independence. You can get one of those American ships if you have an active Admiralty Backing and complete the campaign. If you want to add the ship you don't pick to your collection, you can also do that for 10,000 doubloons. You can read more about that fabulous duo in a dedicated issue of “Through the Spy Glass,” which provides gameplay tips (including suggested Commander builds) and historical details.
