Over the past updates, we've been experimenting with new ways to expand high-tier gameplay and keep long-term progression engaging. One of those experiments was the introduction of Supership Seasons—a feature designed to add variety and new goals at the very top of the Tech Tree.
Your feedback has been clear and consistent. While the idea itself sparked interest, the overall experience hasn't landed where it needs to be. In particular, battles where Tier X ships face Superships have created friction, and the competitive balance hasn't felt as satisfying as it should.
Because of this, we've decided to postpone Supership Seasons until further notice. This gives us the space to step back, reassess the feature, and focus on what matters most: ensuring that high-tier battles feel fair, enjoyable, and rewarding for everyone involved.
Update 9.0 reflects that mindset. It's less about pushing new layers on top, and more about refining existing systems, improving competitive experiences, and smoothing out progression and usability across the game.
As always, we'll continue listening closely and making adjustments with player satisfaction as our priority.
Read on to find out what's new in Update 9.0!

New Warships
German Cruiser Techline (Tier VI–X)
A brand-new German cruiser branch built around secondary firepower, automated secondaries, and close-to-medium-range pressure. This line trades traditional cruiser main battery performance for strong secondary damage, solid torpedoes, and a very distinctive playstyle.
Deutschland – German Tier VI Cruiser
The entry point of the line introduces the core concept: secondary-focused combat with limited main battery impact. At this tier, the ship's potential is naturally constrained by the number of secondary mounts, encouraging careful positioning and commitment to close engagements.
Admiral Scheer – German Tier VII Cruiser
Scheer continues the line's identity, offering more consistency and better secondary uptime. She is most comfortable in her intended role, rewarding players who lean into aggressive angles and sustained pressure.
Knesebeck – German Tier VIII Cruiser
Knesebeck marks a noticeable step forward in effectiveness. With improved secondary coverage and stronger overall output, she begins to fully realize the line's design principles as a cruiser analogue to secondary-focused German battleships.
Manteuffel – German Tier IX Cruiser
At Tier IX, the line gains the tools needed to better compete in high-tier battles. Manteuffel offers stronger sustained damage and better synergy with secondary-focused builds, allowing skilled Captains to exert real influence in close-quarters fights.
Prinz Adalbert – German Tier X Cruiser
The complete expression of the line. Prinz Adalbert delivers the strongest secondary performance in the branch, combining automated secondary fire, torpedoes, and solid survivability into a cruiser that thrives when battles collapse into close-range chaos.
Premium Warships
Wiesbaden – German Tier VIII Cruiser
A highly competitive Premium cruiser with strong sustained damage output. While her single-salvo damage is modest, Wiesbaden compensates with excellent penetration, powerful torpedoes, strong mobility, and great skill synergy—making her a consistent and rewarding ship in capable hands.
Valparaíso – Pan-American Tier VIII Battleship
A secondary-focused battleship built on a Vanguard-style hull, featuring enhanced AP performance, automated secondaries with a high rate of fire, and unique Combat Instruction that triggers short-term recovery effects after destroying an enemy ship. Valparaíso offers a very wide performance range and highly distinctive playstyle.
Royal Sovereign – British Tier VIII Battleship
A high-survivability British battleship with a well-rounded profile. She combines strong acceleration, solid main battery performance, and effective secondaries.
Cambridge – American Tier IX Cruiser
Built on a Tulsa-style hull, Cambridge features ultra-fast-reloading guns with lower accuracy. She embodies the familiar strengths and weaknesses of high-tier U.S. cruisers, rewarding sustained fire and positioning over burst damage.
Nanning – Pan-Asian Tier X Destroyer
A hybrid design combining elements from multiple nations. Nanning features high-alpha main guns, hard-hitting but slower torpedoes, and a solid overall kit with no major weaknesses. While not flashy, she offers dependable performance across many situations.
Special & Variant Ships
- Glory 2059 – Pan-Asian Tier X battleship
- Black Ignacio Allende – Pan-American Tier VIII cruiser
- Clausewitz – German Supership cruiser (will not be released until notice is given)
