You will be able to keep your account progress from test to test, but you will start from scratch on release

What platforms is the game available on?

The game is available on Xbox, PlayStation, Android, iOS, and PC (Steam beta)!

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?
While the focus is still on mouse and keyboard right now, the game now supports controllers in Port and battle, with more improvements coming in future! [/p][p][/p][p]Can I play World of Warships: Legends on my Steam Deck?[/p][p]Yes! There is now experimental support for playing Legends on Steam Deck. We still plan to make various UI improvements in future updates, but feel free to give it a try and let us know what you think!

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.

What game modes/battle types are available?

Versus AI, Arcade, Standard, Brawl and Ranked Battles are now supported in the Steam version.[/p][p]Note: Some modes listed above may not be available during this Playtest

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.
