Let’s go over some of the main new features of the coming update.

Asymmetric Battles

Update 12.10 will bring back Asymmetric Battles to the game! The latest iteration of this popular Battle Type will have a different format compared to the previous one, as battles will be fought in a 5v12 format with Tier VI to X ships and superships. The bot team will not be able to field Submarines. Ships on the player team can differ by one Tier, while ships on the bot team will be up to two Tiers lower than the ships on the player team. For example: If a player team is composed of Tier VI and VII ships, the bots in the enemy team will be Tier IV and V ships.
