World of Warships
No, it hasn't be canceled, but simply renamed. Out is World of Battleships and in is World of Warships, which, if you ask me, is far better.
The change is said to better reflect the game's "core essence." Also of note is the fact that World of Warships will be included in Wargaming.net's common economy which means you'll be able to use money earned in any of the three "World of" titles in the other two, World of Tanks and World of Warplanes.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
2 August, 2012 — Wargaming, the award-winning global video game developer and publisher, today announced that its upcoming naval MMO action game, World of Battleships, has been retitled to World of Warships™. All further references to the game and its development will continue under the new title.
"The company is gearing up, and so are its titles," said Victor Kislyi, CEO of Wargaming. "In addition to more accurately reflecting the game's core essence, World of Warships™ will correspond more closely to the framework of our Wargaming universe."
While the game has changed its title, the gameplay hasn't. World of Warships™ will still focus on straightforward naval action gameplay, including accessible controls, historically accurate vessels and combat, as well as a deep and engaging upgrade and customization system.
World of Warships™ will also be included in the Wargaming.net common economic system that will allow players to distribute resources between the three titles.
World of Warships™ is scheduled to set sail in 2013.

Diverse naval maps with changing weather conditions will enrich the gameplay, and the realistic high quality graphics will transport players into the epic battles that changed the course of human history.
