From the Developers:

Captains,

We want to share extra special news today! It’s now easier than ever to access World of Warships and continue your progression through the platform of your choice. With the release of Update 14.2, we’re introducing a long-awaited feature: you can link your existing account to Steam and freely play using the platform, even if your account wasn’t created through Steam!

When the integration with Steam was first implemented, such a thing wasn’t possible; however, over the past few years, we’ve been working on updating the system to bring these changes to all Wargaming titles, and recent updates were a crucial part of the necessary preparations.

Thanks to extensive improvements to our account infrastructure, you can now seamlessly switch between Steam and the Wargaming Game Center (WGC) while keeping your in-game progress.

This update is part of our ongoing effort to enhance platform flexibility and convenience for all players.

You can link your accounts via the Steam client as soon as Update 14.2 launches, but the link will only start working after March 6(7).

How to Link Your Wargaming.net Account to Steam

Connecting your account is quick and easy! Just follow these steps:

1. Install World of Warships via Steam
2. Launch the game
3. Log in using your Wargaming.net Account when prompted
4. Confirm the connection and start playing with your existing progress
5. That’s it! You can now access your World of Warships account via Steam anytime

Another exciting update: you can also link your account to Microsoft and play via the Microsoft Store client!

How to Link your Wargaming.net Account to Microsoft

1. Go to the Account Management page
2. Link your account to Microsoft by following the on-screen instructions
3. Install World of Warships via the following link and play

As for the Epic Games Store, while you can’t link existing accounts to the EGS, EGS players can access the game via other platforms!

If you have several accounts under the same credentials, you can log into them using the same Steam/EGS/MS account. And, most importantly, you can swap between the accounts right in your Port!

Additionally, with this update, you can now have several accounts from the same region linked under the same credentials, allowing you to keep all of your accounts in one place!

Lastly, you can set the default account for each game, so you don’t have to choose between accounts every time you want to log in to the game client.
