We are pleased to announce the beginning of a new season of “World War” mode, with which naval forces will enter the battlefield with all their might!
New armies and game mechanics, changes in the award system including awards for squadron commanders, and many other quality improvements are waiting for you in this season.
From the 28th of January till the 11th of February - participate in the “Attack from the Sea” season of World War mode over a period of 8 days
Scenarios
Battle of Luzon (Japan - USA)
This new scenario involves naval forces. Occurring on the 22nd of December 1941, US troops in the Philippines pose a serious threat to the advancement of Japanese troops to the South, and that’s why the seizure of the Luzon island is important to the Japanese forces’ plans to gain dominance in South-East Asia.
Kerch–Eltigen operation (USSR - Germany)
This new scenario involves naval forces. Occurring on the 31st of October 1943, Soviet forces prepared the largest landing operation on the Eastern Front to liberate the city, the port of Kerch, and the port of Kamysh Burun, and create a springboard for the further liberation of the Crimean peninsula from German invaders.
Battle for Caen (Britain — Germany)
Occurring on the 26th of June 1944. One of the main targets for the allies in operation Overlord was the capture of the city of Caen as well as the nearby Carpiquet airfield.
Nordwind (USA — Germany)
Occurring on the 1st of January 1945. Despite significant losses in the Ardennes, German command expected to break through the allies’ defensive line via an unexpected counterattack in the Vosges and on the Alsace plain.
Awards for all players
All players are able to unlock the following awards by earning “World War” Stars ⭐.

USS Phelps DD-360 (USA, premium, rank III)
A balanced destroyer equipped with five 127 mm main calibre guns and an extensive arsenal to fight any possible targets: torpedoes, depth bombs and bomb mortar. The ship is distinguished by its enhanced anti-aircraft weaponry of 45 and 20 mm auto cannons as well as large-calibre machine guns.

Awards for squadron players
Only squadron members and their commanders will be able to receive these awards.
Soldiers and commanders
The following will be granted based on the squadron’s results on the squadron leaderboard at the end of the season.
- Places 1-3 — Coupon for the USS Phelps DD-360 (USA).
- Places 4-5 — Coupon for the BA-11 (USSR).
- 10 best squadrons — World War season decals (players may use these decals until the beginning of the next World War season).
- 50 best squadrons — Squadron medal: “Attack from the Sea”.
Only commanders
The following will be granted based on the results of the squadron commanders leaderboard at the end of the season.
- Top 10 — Coupon for the USS Phelps DD-360 (USA).
- Place 11-50 — Coupon for the BA-11 (USSR).
Squadron medals
Awards will be given only to the players who have played at least 16 battles in the operation for their squadron. The number of battles played can be viewed in the “World War” tab of your squadron.
Each commander’s action in the operation will achieve 1 activity point for them (but not more than once per minute). At the end of the operation, the squadron will receive a rating score (200 for victory, 40 for defeat, 5 for each winning battle and 1 for each lost one) which will be distributed among the commanders proportionate to their activity.
World War mode for novices
World War mode is open to all players, but its most interesting features and valuable awards are only available for squadron players. You can join a squadron at any time, or even create your own to get access to the additional season awards, and you may even be able to complete the tasks faster!
In World War mode, large squadrons can fight against each other in various operations, with each battle potentially bringing them closer to victory. For players who aren't squadron members, World War mode opens many new mission types with special rules and rewards. All players who have achieved rank III are able to participate in World War battles.
Participating
Expand the game mode selection under the button “To Battle” and select “World War”.
In the World War tab, the “All battles” button will open the list of all battles in which you can participate. Also found in the menu are the leaderboard lists, which are useful for squadron players and their commanders, as well as the operation filter if you want to fight for one particular squadron or to participate in a single scenario.
“All battles” are sorted by mission type. Red icon - this battle is already in progress. Yellow icon - this battle will start shortly. Gray icon - this battle has already reached the maximum number of players.
Preparation for the battle
Select the battle to proceed to the preparation phase. At this stage, you need to put the vehicles needed for the battle into your vehicle slots.
The composition of each army is represented by vehicle groups and their numbers. Place one vehicle from each vehicle group into the vehicle slots. If you have already purchased vehicles represented in the vehicle groups, you will be able to choose those vehicles instead, if preferred. If you haven’t purchased represented vehicles, you will still be able to use one vehicle from each of the vehicle groups, but without possibility to choose.
To simplify the arrangement of the vehicles, use the button “Generate vehicle preset”. The algorithm will select the vehicle with highest BR for each vehicle group and will place them in the most optimal vehicle slots (based on crew skills).
After completing the preparation phase and placing vehicles into the vehicle slots, you can then proceed to clicking the “To Battle” button and wait for the battle to begin.
In the battle
At the beginning of the battle, each player will receive one or more vehicle units randomly selected from the army. If you lose your vehicle, it will be immediately replaced by another randomly selected vehicle.
This information is especially important for squadron members! Each vehicle lost in the battle will be deducted from its group and the army as a whole.
By fighting in World War mode, you earn respawn points which will not be lost between the battles and will give you the ability to use desired vehicles of the army - the best vehicles for the best fighters!More about World War on our Wiki

What does the 1 game day mean? 24 hours or something else?
24 hours with the start of the day being UTC-0 like it always is. They note that in particular because most events are based on a 48 cycle
''Occurring on the 31st of October 1943, Soviet troops prepare for the largest landing operation of WWII'' *D-Day wants to know your location*
They probably mean it was the largest Soviet landing of the war
Hawkmoth36, If it was Soviet, it means it was largest in the world, because everything Soviet is automatically largest! Even BIAS!
Will the vehicle rewards for stars (not leaderboard reward) be coupons or bound to your account?
probably insta-reward for the stars and coupons for places...
Coupons are only for best squadron players and commanders. Lone wolfs gets vehicles for stars.
I wish I had friends :( But it looks fun!
We are your friends ;)
Stona_WT, We are our comrades!
thanks for listening to the feedback of this community i love ww mode so refreshing to play thanks gaijin
This is an improvement! Still wish there were no markers, but nonetheless, thanks!
aww only 8 days? well i guess it's better than nothing... i've been playing World War Mode since the 1st season so i definitely will participate on this one, any plan for future WWM season that last longer? like 2 weeks maybe?
Actually Battle of Luzon was in 1945, not in 1941. Japan starting attack Phillipines in december of 1941. This attsack called 'Fall of the Philippines'
Correct! American and Filipino forces had to fall back to Corregidor Island in Manila Bay and to Batangas as the Japanese advanced. The first Japanese attack was the bombing of Clark Airfield on 8 December 1941, one day after the attack on Pearl Harbor. My wife and I live in Cagayan de Oro in Mindanao, where there is a monument to General Douglas MacArthur, and a park named after him which has statues dedicated to the Filipino press in our city who were brave in the face of enemy cruelty.
*crying tears of joy* I....I don't have to struggle in WWM. I can just use eagles for my BA-11. You can yell at me all you like, this is a vehicle I've been waiting for for years. I'm buying it.
It seems that you can only get one of the vehicles...
nope, just get all the stars
