Wargaming announced Update 15.5 for World of Warships, releasing June 18. The update introduces a new Decals customization feature for ship hulls, a four-chapter story campaign called Dawn of the Shining Era commemorating the 250th anniversary of American independence, and an event pass. Players can earn the Tier VIII premium cruiser Congress, a historical commander, and cosmetic items.
World of Warships players will get a new way to personalize their fleets when Update 15.5 lands on June 18. Wargaming detailed the patch on June 15, centering it on a story campaign called Dawn of the Shining Era that runs four chapters and tracks the American colonies' path to independence. Completing the campaign over a month earns the Tier VIII premium cruiser Congress, an American historical commander, permanent camouflage, and destruction effects.
The headline addition is Decals, a customization feature that lets players apply historical symbols and mottos to ship hulls. In Update 15.5, Decals are distributed through containers earned from special combat missions and are initially usable only on Tier IX ships. Wargaming said future updates will expand both the feature and the ships it supports.
An event pass called 250th Anniversary of Independence offers additional American-themed decorations. The game client will also show New York Harbor decked out with Independence Day decorations and fireworks. Clan Battles Season 34 starts alongside the patch, along with various balance adjustments.
