Take the helm in Navy War, a naval combat game built around team battles. Command warships in a historical naval combat experience inspired by World War I and World War II. Choose a destroyer, cruiser, or heavy ship, coordinate fire with your squad, and fight across tropical, taiga, arctic, and desert waters. JOIN MULTIPLAYER GAMES IN A 6X6 FLEET Team up with five allies and enter a multiplayer games match against a rival squad. Use a multiplayer sea battle to pressure a flank, turn a fleet multiplayer attack into a naval multiplayer push. Each Team Deathmatch lasts 12 minutes, so call targets and earn points through damage and eliminations. MASTER SHOOTING GAMES WITH NAVAL GUNS Practice the lead in shooting games where artillery rewards timing and positioning. Turn naval shooting games into controlled engagements by tracking a target and adjusting aim for distance. Use naval gun games tactics, launch torpedoes, and win a sea gun battle through smoke. LEAD ACTION GAMES FROM THE HELM Take control of a ship and make naval action game decisions around speed, cover, and firing angles. Use a sea action game approach to steer between islands and force a fleet action. Scout, support, or hold a lane with heavy artillery. WIN ONLINE GAMES AND CLIMB TOURNAMENTS Enter online games with a goal and turn results into progress on regional and global tables. Combine a naval force attack with sea force support, choose a navy fleet route or an online fleet games route, and finish an online sea battle in online naval combat. Compete in clan leagues from Bronze through Diamond. BUILD YOUR FLEET IN SIMULATION GAMES Shape each vessel in simulation games focused on fleet combat and choices. Improve eight modules: caliber, loading, aiming, fire control, hull, emergency systems, engine, and steering. Use a naval simulation game routine to compare range and reload, tune a naval simulation build for speed, apply fleet simulation game planning, and test a sea simulation game build. COMMAND YOUR FLEET AND CHOOSE A CLASS Select from more than 80 ships across destroyer, cruiser, and heavy ship classes, then assign one captain to strengthen three parameters. Build a warship games lineup, test a warship battle approach, and keep a warship fleet ready for maps. Change speed, armor, reload, range, turret traverse, or resistance bonuses. LOAD TORPEDOES, MINES, AND ROCKETS Build a naval warfare loadout and use more than main guns to control the water. Turn naval war pressure into a flank attack, place mines to deny a route, and use sea warfare positioning to reveal an enemy course. Add rockets, sonar, countermeasures, nets, paravanes, buoys, and smoke. CUSTOMIZE THE FLEET FOR THE FIGHT Equip nearly 190 permanent camouflage patterns to improve damage absorption, around 150 decals to tighten shell grouping, and more than 180 flags to increase acceleration. Make a battleship games setup, choose a battleship war game role, and use battleship strength where the enemy needs to break through. CROSS THE SEA AND CONTROL THE FLEET BATTLE Move through eight maps set in tropical islands, taiga, arctic waters, and desert seas, with day and night versions that change visibility. Read a fleet battle, use a naval fleet battle formation, and turn a fleet clash into a fleet fight. Earn experience and unlock chat and clan access. Choose your class, upgrade modules, and enter a 6x6 match where every maneuver creates an opening. Coordinate artillery, torpedoes, mines, rockets, sonar, and defenses, then adjust your captain or ship setup. Install Navy War and join a naval combat game built for direct control and competition.
