Player Opinion
Performance
First available available during the World of Warships Closed Beta Test as a pre-order, Yūbari is a fairly mediocre Japanese cruiser for Tier IV. She compliments her slow-turning turrets with a pair of twin-tube torpedo launchers with a 6km range. Compared to all of her Tier IV counterparts, Yūbari has the lowest detectability range of all: just under 10km. Where Yūbari really lacks, however, are her guns. With only 140mm diameter the shells are quite small and can have a hard time penetrating other cruisers.
