Greetings! We've received some questions about whose game it is. Let's make it clear and not leave any room for wild guesses🙂 The game is developed within Wargaming Saint-Petersburg, the studio which gave birth to World of Warships PC and some older titles before, back when it was known as Lesta Studio. The Legends team core was created long time ago (when the project was internally approved in Wargaming) with several key World of Warships PC developers and several newly hired console specialists. Since then the team has grown independently. It's still very compact compared to WoWS PC, because we can safely steal...uh...borrow...uh...share a lot of 3D assets from the PC game. As for the community relations, the key responsible figures are Sub_Octavian (me), Philigula (by the way we're both Phils and we're based in St. Pete studio as well - but we're not brothers) and a couple of great guys based in WoWS PC EU and NA teams. They will join us a bit later with community growth to ensure quality sustained communications in major languages and time zones. I was working on WoWS PC since Alpha, and many players know me very well. I made many mistakes and learned even more lessons, but overall, I hope I did manage to create a friendly, open and appealing dev-player interaction there, which in turn has helped a lot of player-driven changes to happen. Now I am intending to use all of my experience and efforts to make this community the best place for you guys. Philigula joined my team around a year ago. He's super fluent English speaker, energetic, and he actually likes Legends more than PC version. He also used to troll the rest of my team too much. Hence, he was appointed to do all the work while I relax and write PSAs like this 😛 Both of us are in tight contact with key developers, so rest assured, we won't be just "talking heads" - instead we will be pushing your questions, concerns and argument to the team, and vice versa - so that the game thrives. Of course there will be more people involved, but it will mostly be on service level, and will depend on work load. To sum up, the team is compact, experienced, tightly connected, and is willing to provide many great moments for you guys. I am counting on you as well, because very soon we will start building the base for the future game community together. How would we treat newcomers? Will we be able to foster friendly and interesting discussion? What would people say about Legends "playerbase"? It's all on us. We're excited about this challenge. By the way, we're going through your Alpha Test applications and there's a lot, no, A LOT of them. This level of engagement from you makes us smile! (Okay, it makes me smile as happily as I can, and probably makes Philigula work overnight and cry, but on average, we're smiling). Thank you! We will be telling you more about our progress, team and other interesting stuff in the days to come. Follow the news. And if you're interested in such blog-style updates, let us know in the comments and maybe hint at what are you interested in. Cheers!

I am the other Phil and I approve of this message.

Welcome everyone who joined us lately! Truly excited to see how fast we're growing 🙂

Captains! We're happy to announce that World of Warships: Legends, the tactical combat action for consoles developed by Wargaming Saint-Petersburg, is entering the closed alpha stage! If you've left us your credentials we're going to start some communications with you very soon and you'll get a chance to be among the first to try out the game! Meanwhile, feel free to browse around the forum and meet your fellow gamepad commanders, but please follow the Rules. Also, feel free to check out official community Discord! Stay tuned for more legendary news and prepare to Turn the Tide!

Well, since many of them come from WoTC, WoT, WoWsB or elsewhere, I've thought, why not introduce them to the fabulous world of warships and how to do it; easy, with a guide that is constantly updated, besides having reliable sources such as articles published by the developers, by members of the Wiki, as well as guides that can be found in the PC game forum. And well, I ask that if there's a problem, suggestion or something in the topic that needs a change, please quote what's wrong with editing it (since you can't edit it like Wikipedia T. T).

I wouldn't dream of such a thing!!

I am an avid fan of WoW on the pc and same goes for WoT on pc and console. I have been looking forward to WoW finally coming to console as it is an amazing game on pc. I hope to be part of the closed alpha.

Hey, kudos for the thought, we'll be able to start filling it in soon 🙂

Why we need a guide for a Alpha Game? We all know what WoWs is.

World of Warships: Legends definitely appears to be the final name. It’s a lot easier to make people aware of the fact that it is NOT the same as the PC game.... We have lots of WoTs players who think that PC and Consoles are identical because they have identical names.... they are not. Console =\= PC and we need that to be clear from day one. (nothing personal, please don’t be offended) With regards to testing..... if you’re accepted as a tester they’ll send you an email. They’ll also probably invite you to a private forum where there will be notifications and information for the test sessions. It’s called a “closed alpha” for a reason.... you’ll know everything you need to know if you get chosen!

Since the WoT forum have been taken over and held hostage by the felines, I've decided to state my claim, and try and bring the good boy's and girl's to the forefront here. For too long, us pupper loving humans have been cast aside and silenced by the cat overlords, but no more shall we be silent, no more shall we bow down to their purrsecution. I am no longer afraid to admit it... My name's Boab, and I'm a dog person!!!

Might as well start the separation to find potential teammates. PS4 here.

Grog, you are 2 for 2 on avatars that represent my favorite fictional characters.

Thanks very much for the guide peppa chan. Im a warships noob along with mister hooper, so this will be very handy.

I am a WoWs noob, and will really appreciate this thread. Thanks in advance for the hard work.

WoTC ps4 player here can't wait to start nolifing the shit out of this game. I can't do anymore on WoT now i have everything unlock.

I will be lurking in this thread!

May this topic be even Englisher than any other English part of this forum 🙂 Enjoy your stay, folks!

*Kicks Inquisitorial torture tools back under the bed* Welcoming newcomers and fostering friendly and interesting communication with definitely sounds like a good plan...yes, we should do that one first for sure.

PS4 ready to sail!

Nice Job guys, can't wait. I'm in agreement with Brogue, more blogs would be nice. Communication is key which WOTC can lack sometimes.

All hands on deck. Batten down them hatches. Man the crows nest. Sail into the eye of testing storm!

I was a long time WoT console veteran and recently picked up Warships on PC. The transparency and communication from the Warships Dev team is a breath of fresh air, and I'm glad the group developing Legends is drawn from there. I'm genuinely excited to see this project moving forward and can't wait to fire that first salvo! Fair winds and following seas, Phil and Phil.

As Chris Keeling will tell you I have been waiting for this for ever. At the E3 release of the PC version, he gave me a laser etched bottle and my first question was how long do I have to play on my PS4. He just laughed and said you know I can't tell you. Now we are finally at the starting gate. So look forward to #TankoTuesdays and now #WarshipWednesdays as soon as we can stream. Urgent Fury out.

Cant wait guys, really looking forward to this game

In a word: streamlining! Yes, sir, but that's as deep as I can dive on that particular question 🙂

Yeah my interestwould be less than zero if WGCB had anything to do with this games development. Lets hope for a better port this time around.

I agree with you, but my comment on the amount of British and Russian ships was just for their in game tech trees in WoWs. The Russian line doesn't have BB's yet and the Brits don't have a DD line yet leaving both sides with roughly the same amount of tech tree ships in game. Russia having a bit more with their DD tree split.

I love it when games goes from PC to Xbox. All the pros can't compete on the Xbox. Why? Well you'll have to ask them. Force them to show their true skill. With Xbox everyone is equal. It's the only gaming I do. No hacks or tricks. I will never go back to PC again. Never. Graphics isn't even worth buying a PC any more for me. Being equal is everything.

greetings from your sister Atago. She is proud of you ans my favorite t8 ship. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Ebenfalls mit einer PS4 am Start. Ich bin auch schon bös gespannt was uns im Vergleich zur PC Version erwartet. Mal sehen ob man eine Alpha Zugang abbekommt.

oh. Yeah thats makes sense^^

Good luck dude & thansk for the guide!

Amen brother.

Like everyone here at the forum. Welcome and I look forward to see you on the Alpha!.

You click the pretty blue link on the front page of this website..... the one that says “Join Now” (or whatever it says... lol)

HMS TOG II* forever.

Of course we are 😛

Boy....they'll let anyone join 😛

Question: Are you guys involved with the Chicago offices at all?

Wargaming Chicago( world of tanks console) is not a very popular group amongst the veteran WOT console playerbase on the forums.

No idea who you console scrubs are

Don't worry I'll make it quick and painless

I'm a noob boob. 🎯 Don't sink my battleship.

PS4ler an Bord! Freue mich sehr auf WoW:L leider war mein PC dann doch zu alt um es richtig genießen zu können...

Fantastic. In that case, I'm going to try signing up for the beta.

Please be more like the PC and less like blitz!

Come on, don't tell me she is not historical! 😠

I’m looking forward to this. I play WoWs on PC, but WoTs Console is my jam. I’ve been waiting for this for years! Can I go ahead and sign up for Supertest now? I already test for Chicago.

Yes sir, pretty much. More action, single squadron control and more AA involvement.
