The ships in this game are modeled pretty superbly, and their method of combat feels almost nothing like tank combat. This may sound like Warships might not offer anything new to seasoned veterans of World of Tanks, but that’s exactly where you’d be wrong. Almost everything in World of Warships Blitz is presented the exact same way as it is in World of Tanks, with the only real difference being that you’re piloting ships instead of tanks. If you’ve played World of Tanks Blitz, a lot of this setup probably sounds very familiar, and that’s because it is. If your team manages to score more hits on enemies or maneuver their way into the capture zone when the match timer expires, your team wins. In each match, a team wins when they destroy the other team or otherwise earns more points than their opponents, which is done by dealing damage to enemy ships or capturing designated zones on a map. The ships involved in these conflicts come primarily from the time of World War II, so a lot of this fighting involves cannons, torpedoes, and the occasional aircraft carrier. In World of Warships Blitz, two teams of seven ships face off against each other in naval combat. This distinction doesn’t necessarily sound like it would make for a hugely different experience, but World of Warships Blitz does a great job of making its nautical combat feel unique, while maintaining the winning formula that made World of Tanks so popular in the first place. The only real difference here is that this game lets you take to the high seas in all manner of historical naval vessels to duke it out online against other players instead of staying on land. World of Warships Blitz is the (sort of) follow up to Wargaming’s ultra-popular World of Tanks Blitz.
