Wargaming.net announces World of Battleships, a free-to-play massively multiplayer online naval combat which will join World of Tanks and their upcoming World of Warplanes to form a trilogy of multiplayer action combat games, covering the land, sea, and air. The game doesn't yet carry a launch date, but we have some World of Battleships screenshots showing the game in action

Good, i was after a nice wot game but with battleships. Tho i would have liked it if it was using pirate ships not modern ships.

I'm hoping they don't include Aircraft Carriers, they will be ridiculously OP like Arty are/were(They were when I played, might have changed) in WoT...

WoT of great, so i am really looking forward to this.

I really like the whole WOT setup, aside from a few matchmaking/tier issues the whole game's mechanics are pretty damn good. WOB should be another winner for them, looking forward to it.

There any beta on this?

I wanted to get into World of tanks with a group of friends but I found their subscription model to be very bizarre, in the end, I gave up.

Interesting. I assume it'll be ship to ship battles? Will they be including Destroyers, Frigates, Carriers etc. or just Battleships? In that case I wonder if they'll include the Type 45 destroyer and whether the weapons package will be accurate. It's ship to ship capability is mince but if there are carriers in the game launching planes then it should make for some interesting gameplay.

Wonder if they ever plan to tie all three games together, all the different type of craft. They could call it World of War Craft

I want the plane one, not heard much about that for a while, hopefully a nice beta like tanks.

Awesome i have wanted a game like this since combat simulator haha

World of Planes should be fun to, I'm hoping once all three mmos are established
will they make a "world of soldiers" mmo and add all land air and sea vehicles.

DOH!! After reading this post, I did the deadliest thing of downloading World of Tanks client this morning and got bitten by the bug.
I am keen to see what they are doing with World of Planes, will we all start in mid flight or do we have to take off?
