World of Warships is the latest addition to Wargaming's ever-expanding roster of war simulation video games, and it's going into beta today.
The naval warfare simulation is joining its brethren, World Of Tanks and World of Warplanes, concluding Wargaming's ambition to provide the complete experience for those who share a passion for war.
The massively multiplayer online game offers players the chance to assume command of several types of military ships, fulfilling a variety of roles.
The battles take place on pre-defined maps, with specific weather conditions and layouts, spanning the Atlantic, Pacific and Arctic oceans.
The maps will each have a certain battle flow, and players will need to adapt and employ different strategies in order to emerge victorious.
Wargaming can now boast a complete warfare experience
Users can select ships from the Imperial Japanese Navy, Kriegsmarine, United States Navy, Royal Navy and Soviet Navy, but there will not be any submarines or gunboats.
Similar to the way World of Tanks and World of Warplanes work, World of Warships is a free-to-play game supported by in-game microtransactions, allowing players to purchase special ships.
Furthermore, players can also purchase a Premium Account, offering them a significant increase in experience gained and credits earned across all matches, as well as other benefits.
The developer has released a brand new animated trailer for the game, showing off the imposing greatness and thrilling action of naval warfare, and reminding those who want to try out World of Warships to sign up.
If you're interested in joining the action, you can register and sign up for beta access for free on the World of Warships website.
World of Warplanes is currently out for Windows PC, and World of Tanks is available on PC and Xbox 360 and is also coming to Xbox One sometime later this year.
Wargaming is also working on World of Tanks: Generals, an online collectible card game that focuses on World War 2 battles, scheduled to land on PC, tablets and smartphones later in 2015.
