BattleTabs

About this game

BattleTabs is a modern, strategic twist on the classic Battleship formula. Build your fleet, outsmart your opponent, and sink their ships before they sink yours — but this time, every ship has a unique ability that changes the game.

Ability-Based Ship Combat

Place 4 ships on your board and take turns attacking your opponent's grid. Unlike classic Battleship, every ship has a unique ability with cooldowns — from area attacks and chain lightning to board reveals and rapid-fire strikes. Build the perfect fleet by balancing attack patterns, cooldowns, and ship synergies.

Key Features

  • Unique Ship Abilities — Every ship has a special power with cooldowns. Kayaks strike in patterns, Catamarans reveal enemy boards, Valkyries grow stronger as the battle rages, and more.
  • Fleet Building — Collect ships across Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary rarities. Build a fleet of 4 that suits your playstyle and master the synergies between them.
  • Campaign Research Tree — Progress through a branching tech tree to unlock new ships, earn rewards, and expand your strategic options.
  • Competitive Ranked Play — Climb the leaderboards with a skill-based rating system. Prove your tactical mastery in intense 1v1 matches.
  • Two Battle Modes — Jump into Intense Mode for fast-paced matches with short turn timers, or relax in Casual Mode with longer turns.
  • Cross-Platform Play — Play against opponents across platforms. Your progress carries with you wherever you play.
  • Free to Play — Jump in and start battling at no cost. Cosmetics and progression boosts available for those who want them.
