What platforms is the game available on?

Is there crossplay between the Steam, console, and mobile versions of World of Warships: Legends?

Upon release, we plan to have full crossplay between all platforms.

During the Steam Beta, you will be playing on a separate server, as there are still missing features compared to the console and mobile versions.

Can I link my existing World of Warships: Legends account from console or mobile?

That is not currently supported, as we are focused on adding all features that are already present on other platforms before we can consider it. Stay tuned for any updates about it!

Can I use a gamepad/controller? The game currently supports Xbox controllers in-battle, but not in the Port/main menu. Other controllers are not yet officially supported and may or may not work. We are mainly focused on optimizing it for mouse and keyboard controls right now.

How long are battles in World of Warships: Legends? It varies based on the battle type, with the overall averages being around 5–8 minutes and the maximum possible battle time being 15 minutes for Standard Battles.

The Beta Test will have the following battle types: Versus AI, Arcade, and Standard.

Can I stream the game or create content about it?

Yes, feel free to create content about it. Please keep in mind that this is a test version and many features are still missing for parity with the already released versions on console and mobile.
