Autumn is the time when the ocean is roaring. And time to enjoy new content, too: it’s a good thing World of Warships: Legends is packed with new content in the latest update!  Alternate German Battleships in Early Access A new tech tree line is coming! Alternate German battleships with a personal mission for each will be available through regular and big Early Access crates. These battleships are all about improved secondary guns. They also have torpedoes on board at higher tiers, as well as a SONAR consumable from Tier V on.
