Documentary Premieres
This year’s Longest Night of Museums isn't just a way to remotely visit museums; the stream itself will become an exhibit for brand-new documentary content filmed exclusively for the event!
Frog Fathers: Lessons From the Normandy Surf
World of Warships and nonprofit organization Force Blue have teamed up again to produce "Frog Fathers: Lessons from the Normandy Surf." This documentary, narrated by John C. McGinley, traces the story of the forefathers of the U.S. Navy Seals, the NCDU and Navy Scouts and Raiders, who worked to clear the beaches of Normandy, as seen from the eyes of modern veterans of this elite corps.
Normandy, 0530 Hours
From the ruins of the famous Mulberry harbor at Arromanches to the German gun emplacements surrounding the Utah and Sword Beaches. This is a taste of the itinerary followed by the Wargaming staff who made the pilgrimage to historical D-Day locations to document their state 80 years after the “longest day.”
Twitch Drops
No World of Warships stream would feel complete without a share of in-game rewards for viewers! For this event, WG have prepared a special set of Twitch Drops: you’ll receive a Drop after watching the stream for 60, 120, and 240 minutes. Included are Twitch containers, expendable camouflages, and even a new commemorative flag introduced for the Longest Night of Museums 2024.
