Wargaming announces plans to add a new seven-on-seven Team Battles mode to
World of Warships, their MMO naval
combat game. This will come in an upcoming version 0.5.3 patch for the game, and
will be available to all players at level 12 or higher.
This trailer
introduces how this looks, and here's a bit:
Wargaming today announced the new battle type “Team Battles” for World of
Warships will set sail in Update 0.5.3. This new battle type, which unlocks at
account level 12, lets captains create an elite squadron of players, work with
them to sharpen their skills, and then set out to decimate their opponents and
rule the waves.
Taking the prestige of World of Warship’s naval combat to a new level, Team
Battles are the domain of certain tier vessels, consisting of 7-vs-7 skirmishes.
Players can have up to 10 people in their team (with three in reserve). They can
also be recruited for up to three teams simultaneously, so there is always a new
Team Battle waiting on the horizon. Team Battles will only be available during
"prime time," a necessary restriction to ensure a competitive number of players
are all in the queue.
“The fans have been asking for more forms of team interaction since we started
developing World of Warships,” said Danny Volkov, World of Warships Development
Director, Wargaming. “With Team Battles, we’ve listened to their feedback and
created an arena where they can meet teammates, forge their perfect squad and
take on intense battles with top players in their region.”
On a team’s journey to become the dominating force of the seas, they will
advance through a number of leagues, battling towards a common objective, to
improve their ranking. Through Team Battles, captains get their fill of
high-level skirmishes and truly take their skills to the next level.
