A project variant for a 35,000-ton battleship armed with nine 381 mm main battery guns developed in Great Britain in 1935. While World War II was raging, the Canadian fleet saw a rapid period of growth. If history had taken a different course, such a battleship could have been transferred to the Royal Canadian Navy in 1944.

Yukon was released as a random bundle reward during the Christmas on the Waves update.
