Introducing… 

AN ALL NEW SHIP: THE U.S.S. CERRITOS




The U.S.S. Cerritos is the first of its kind, allowing players to buff the rest of the ships in their fleet.

The brand new Below Decks Abilities lets players unlock power like they have never seen before! Players can now choose a crew to support the officers on the bridge, providing up to seven officers’ worth of additional abilities that can combine to provide powerful buffs and benefits to player ships.  

NEW OFFICERS: MARINER, BOIMLER AND BADGEY
