| == Space Battle (2015) ==
| |
| Space Battles (2015) was a special game mode launched during the Closed Beta testing phase of World of Warships. It ran from 11.4 - 13.4.2015, and has not been available since its original release.

|
| === Gameplay ===
| |
| For this event, no extra game mode was added that players could select. Instead, players that selected and tried to play a Random Battle with one of the five unique ships, would be placed in a special matchmaker that put the ships up against each other.
| |
|
| |
| Battles would be played exclusively on the map “Ruinberg in Space”. Only one battle mode was available: domination with three capture zones.
| |
|
| |
| Besides the unique visuals, the gameplay remained largely the same as a standard random battle.
