Down periscope, Submarines are coming to World of Warships

Wargaming teased previously that submarines were coming to World of Warships and now thanks to Gamescom, that has happened, with the first three countries to get them being the USA, Germany and the USSR.

In the next couple of weeks, players will be able to get a first glimpse of submarines during the upcoming Super Test phase. Prospective commanders can already look forward to this fall’s PvP event, which will let them try out submarines from the first three nations for a limited time to evaluate the changes brought by the introduction of the new ship-class before its actual release. Wargaming is looking to expand the selection of submarines to other nations in the future, with the Japanese fleet to follow, as well as the future introduction of additional researchable and premium ships.

While countries are nice, there is a matter of the types of Subs for each country:

  • The United States: the Cachalot (Tier VI), Salmon (Tier VIII) and Balao (Tier X).

  • Germany: the U-69 (Tier VI), U-190 (Tier VIII) and U-2501 (Tier X).

  • USSR: the S-1 (Tier VI), L-20 (Tier VIII) and K1 (Tier X).

There is no date for full release, but I would imagine in the next few months.
