World of Battleships announced

Creators of World of Tanks and World of Warplanes, Wargaming.net announce on the WoT site that they are also working on World of Battleships. Like Tanks and Warplanes, World of Battleships will be free to play, and will feature a "straightforward interface, easy-to-use controls, and a common economic system that will allow players to distribute resources between the three games for the ultimate progress in each of them."

World of Battleships will let players take control of a large selection of warships and wage naval war in scenarios based on the biggest boat battles of the 20th Century. Players will have to pilot their machines, manage their weapons and adapt to changing weather conditions mid battle. It sounds as though we can expect a similar level of customisation to World of Tanks, too. "All the machines have a unique combination of firepower, speed, armor, and endurance."
