World of Warships has rolled out a fresh wave of content for its titles on consoles and mobile devices.
The July update brings several additions to World of Warships: Legends, with a focus on 4th of July celebrations and the return of the Star Trek collaboration.
On mobile, World of Warships Blitz introduces new French destroyers, a limited-time game mode called Turbo Strike, and general gameplay improvements.
Legends Celebrates the 4th of July With Campaign and Historical Battleships
The World of Warships: Legends update kicks off the “Forward for Freedom” campaign, a patriotic-themed event to mark the United States Independence Day.
Running for five weeks and consisting of 120 milestones, the campaign offers the Tier VIII American battleship Wisconsin as the main reward for players with Admiralty backing.
Throughout the campaign, players can also collect a special currency called Independium, which can be used to unlock the legendary-tier cruiser Puerto Rico, themed cosmetics, and other in-game items.
The celebratory content also includes:
- The West Virginia ‘44, a Tier VI premium battleship, available in the “Steel and Stars” random bundle.
- The legendary-tier battleship Louisiana, obtainable via a research project in the Bureau.
- A new permanent camouflage for the HMS Rodney, inspired by the disruptive pattern used by the Royal Navy during WWII.
Star Trek Returns With New Characters and Cosmetics
The Star Trek collaboration makes its return to World of Warships: Legends, featuring new franchise-inspired content. Highlights include the U.S.S. Voyager, a Tier VIII cruiser, and a special Queen’s Diamond skin for the Yamato.
Four new commanders also join the lineup:
- William Riker
- Kathryn Janeway
- Worf
- Borg Queen
This content is available through the Store and the new Replicator Crate II, with some items accessible for free through the “Forward for Freedom” and “To the Delta Quadrant and Back” missions.
The commander Riker can also be unlocked via the new Number One Calendar or directly from the Store.

In World of Warships Blitz, a new line of French destroyers is now available in early access. Three ships designed for stealth and speed are ready for mobile players:
- L’Adroit – Tier V

- Exclusive power-ups
