🚢 Shipmates

Hoist the sails, time to play! Gather your friends and challenge an opponent to a game of Shipmates — a new feature in Soda.

How does it work?

You'll be the captain of your team, and will compete to sink the fleet of your opponent before they sink yours!

When starting Shipmates, you will need to choose 4 friends to help you out- if you don't have them yet, you will be able to add more through the 'Invite friends' button you'll see when starting a new match. Please note you won't be able to proceed without at least 4 friends.

The Shipmates onboarding screens in Candy Crush Soda Saga. First screen shows Kimmy surrounded by frames that represent friends. The text says: "Sink your opponent's float to earn a sweet treasure!". Second screen is when it finds an opponent to play with. Third screen: You choose your crew among your friends. Underneath, one Play button and one that says "Repair ships" for 3 Gold bars

Each friend will have a ship on your board, and they will help you sink your opponent's ships. To do so, you'll need ammunition.

How do you get ammunition?

As your friends pass levels, you, as their captain, will gain ammunition... so choose your crew wisely!

Tip:

Make sure you pick friends who are active Soda players to help you out- you won't be able to change them until the match finishes!

What can I win?

You will win a Wonderball when you win a round of Shipmates! Sodalicious!

When will I see it?

Players above level 31 will be able to play Shipmates.

Why is Shipmates not available in my game?

It's occasionally possible that a feature is not available in your game, while it is available in other players' games. Don't worry! It's not faulty — it's just that with so many players, sometimes we have to spread out the fun.

We try to keep our events and features balanced, manageable, and visible to as many people as possible so everyone gets to try new things. Chances are you'll have another event or feature when other players don't, so rest assured we'll always try to make sure you don't miss out on the fun! Keep an eye on your game to see when new features are added.
