Battleship Command is OUT NOW!
Tue, 2 June 2026



Hey everyone!

Finally! It is happening!! After so many years of hard, but very enjoyable work, I can share Battleship Command with you all.

The game is released as Early Access, which means that it is not complete yet. It has a roadmap with upcoming big features. But there are also many small "quality of life" features and missing mechanics that will be added over time. The great opportunity with Early Access is that we can shape the game together. I greatly value feedback and ideas from players! And I hope you will join the Early Access and share your experience and wishes for the future of this game.



What is Battleship Command right now?

Battleship Command is a naval combat playground, full of possibilities to experience historical scenarios or set up any type of scenario you can think of! There are tutorials, a growing collection of ready-made scenarios, a Quick Scenario editor for setting up battles and a flexible Mission Editor where you can make your own scenarios with tasks, triggers and dynamic features like weather and traffic.

I do hope you will enjoy Battleship Command!

Sincerely,

Bracer

...Must be the buffet of missions that the creative people of the community are cooking!

The game now has basic support for the Steam Workshop!

You will be able to upload your custom missions as items to Battleship Command's Workshop directly from the game.

In the Workshop you can subscribe to custom missions made by other users and they will be available in the mission list in game.


Enjoy!

Key binding
Tue, June 16, 2026



Hi everyone!

This update brings key binding to the game so you can customize the controls in the settings panel.

It is a first iteration of the system, so there are still a few limitations.

Over time I will be adding more functions that can be bound to keys, like opening various panels or firing individual turrets.

There will be a thread in the Steam discussions where you can report issues with this system or request "commands" that can be bound to keys.

All the best!
