Naval conflict just got cool as Paradox Interactive has updated all platforms for Leviathan: Warships with the ‘Jazz Boatman Update’, adding the ”silky-smooth vocal gifts” of Jazz Boatman as a narrator.
We get a Big Red Jazz Button to push to enjoy some cool jazz music as we lead our naval forces to victory. The update also has some game balance changes to damage and function.
There are fancy visual trimmings like anti-aliasing, bloom effect and other post effects now available. The full changelog is available over at Paradox Plaza. Stay cool, daddy-o.
