Year-end massive ship sale? The new steel ships in "World of Warships" are absolute stat monsters—just how absurdly powerful are they?

With 2025 coming to an end, the year-end sales season is upon us, offering many high-performance and costly items at prices that are easier to accept. "World of Warships" kicked off its Christmas event in the recent 14.11 update, featuring a major sale on powerful warships.

The highlight among these is definitely the three new tier 10 pseudo-steel ships—Hawaii, Mobula, and Bremen. Many players have been asking around which one is better to switch to. In fact, all three boast impressive performance and unique features, making each a worthwhile upgrade!

Among them, Mobula stands out for its strength and relatively low complexity, offering a more relaxed playstyle. As the first top-tier R-line battlecruiser, it commands a powerful dive bomber squadron. One strike launches eight planes, dropping a total of 16 high-explosive bombs with 61mm penetration and 8500 base damage each.

This penetration means Mobula’s dive bombers can pierce the decks of most battleships. Coupled with a decent 38*159 dispersion pattern, Mobula often lands over half of its bombs in a single salvo, dealing 20,000 to 30,000 damage to large ships.

Additionally, as an aviation-modified version of Whale, Mobula is equipped with six powerful 460mm main guns, providing reliable baseline damage. Compared to Whale and Koi, Mobula’s six-gun setup offers a higher rate of fire and better dispersion, resulting in surprisingly good practical performance.

In contrast, Hawaii and Bremen require much more active handling. Bremen boasts a hefty sixteen 150mm guns and, with an 18km base range, can deliver 700,000 DPM with AP shells and 340,000 with HE shells! It also comes with a seaplane and extended range, and with the sixth upgrade slot, you can use reload enhancements to further boost its damage output!

Moreover, the D-line’s high-penetration HE means Bremen’s HE damage rivals that of the Mainz. Cruisers rely heavily on DPM-converted semi-damage when fighting large ships, and Bremen has a clear innate advantage here. Its main battery alone makes Bremen’s power level extremely outrageous.

The last pseudo-steel ship, Hawaii, is also an incredibly powerful stat monster and a very unique M-line large cruiser. Built on the Alaska hull, it mounts a full dozen cat ear turrets, wielding 24 long-barrel 127mm guns with an extremely high volume of fire.

Hawaii

Centered around this main battery, Hawaii offers different firing modes: in normal mode, it fires with a flat trajectory, providing good accuracy and chance to ignite upper works of distant large ships; pressing F switches to a high-arc mode similar to Kii, greatly increasing the rate of fire. Though shell performance drops somewhat, the increased firing rate compensates with higher overall volume.

Therefore, in battle, Hawaii players need to flexibly switch using F according to the situation to maximize output efficiency and influence the outcome.

To acquire these ships, you can use Steel Direct Purchase during the recent Steel Fleet event.

Additionally, you can open the highest-tier Christmas supply crate—the "Santa’s Ultimate Gift." It not only offers higher drop rates for ships but also contains golden crates.

With golden crates in hand, Mobula, Bremen, and Hawaii are within your reach. There’s even a chance to unlock their golden variants or get 3,000 steel or 3,750 research points, which is quite generous!

This year-end mega sale is the best opportunity in "World of Warships" all year to jump in and the easiest way to farm resources. If you want a strong start and a great gaming experience, now’s the perfect time to check it out!
