The game update is a success!
As we mentioned before: you have to transfer your account from MY.GAMES to our own Wishlist Games system.
From 28th November, World War 3 will no longer be available on the MY.GAMES platform and will instead be distributed through Steam and the Wishlist Games launcher.
To ensure a smooth transition, we are launching a feature that will allow players to link their existing MY.GAMES accounts to new Wishlist Games accounts.
Account transfer instructions:
Important: The transfer process depends on the platform you’ve played WW3 on (Steam / MY.GAMES / VK play GC), so please read the following information carefully to avoid any problems!
Steam:
If you’ve played WW3 on Steam - the process will be completed automatically: the game update will be downloaded and the new launcher will transfer your account on its own. All your progress will be preserved.
Important: When the launcher opens - don't change the installation folder. Keep the default Steam Applications folder.
MY.GAMES / VK play GC:
If you’ve played WW3 on any of those 2 platforms - you’ll have to manually perform the transfer.
Follow this guide.
Here are the patch notes for this update:

Please note:
- The new live game servers are currently in debugging mode, there may be issues as this is our first rebuilt version of the game, please be patient and report any issues in our Discord or in Support.
- We are aware that UNC currency prices may be incorrect for some regions and will be correcting this shortly.
- Sometimes accounts do not sync the first time you log in. Try a few times and if it still doesn't work - send us a message in Support.
Our team has worked hard to make this update happen. We know there are still bugs to be fixed.
But it's just a first step, and from now on we'll be able to iterate much faster.
Also we're already working on new content and will present it to you soon. The most curious among you will find couple of new things in the game (not yet playable, but coming in the next content update).
See you on the battlefield!
