Take World of Warships home with three limited edition collaborations
In celebration of its 10th anniversary, World of Warships has partnered with multiple brands around the world to create exclusive collectible gifts for its community. Working with the legendary eyewear manufacturer Randolph Engineering, trusted by the U.S. military and loved by pilots and celebrities, World of Warships will unveil a limited edition themed pilot sunglasses. Polarized nylon lenses in Atlantic Blue, a sturdy Tungsten Cerakote finish, and a bayonet wing with the World of Warships logo, each pair of sunglasses is made in Randolph, Massachusetts, as a durable, stainless tribute to the game and its players. Only 150 pieces will be available for purchase on the official Randolph website, starting from September 18. An exclusive $40 discount will be available in the Captain's Club as a special gift for players, and each pair of sunglasses comes with a World of Warships bonus code, making them a true collectible item for both players and fans.
Additionally, World of Warships is collaborating with the transmedia company MOZUMA on a Kickstarter campaign to deliver the historically inspired graphic novel "Yamato: The Final Letters." Through its 60 pages, the novel dives into the story behind the sailors who served on the Japanese battleship Yamato, the largest ship of its kind ever built. Copies of the book can be reserved on the official Kickstarter campaign, with several tiers offering additional rewards such as digital editions, premium collector's sets, and an exclusive version of the Admiral's Collection.
The range of memorabilia for the 10th anniversary concludes with a partnership with the crowdfunding platform Makeship, which worked alongside World of Warships to bring forth the 10th Anniversary Kraken plushie. Starting from September 12, fans can pre-order the limited edition collectible that takes on the guise of the infamous sea creature and comes bundled with a free week of access to a World of Warships premium account. Using Velcro on the plushie, fans can customize their friendly sailor to suit their preferences as it fits nicely into their gaming setup or home space.
