World War 3 - 2000Valand
The year 2023 is now in the past! The year 2024, which we have just entered, will be a landmark year for World War 3 as well as for us. Achieving outstanding results, however, requires not only our commitment, but yours as well!

We need detailed feedback from our community to make sure we set the right development priorities.
For this purpose, we have prepared a special survey about your playing experience with WW3 and how you rate the last year with World War 3.

We know that to make the best version of the game we really need to hear your feedback: what you think is good about the game and should be expanded upon, what you think is bad and needs to be fixed ASAP, what gameplay changes you'd like to see, what ideas you have for improving the game.
Please provide as much detail as possible.

For those who help us by filling in the survey, we have prepared a small gift: M416 Leaf-sprayed






We also strongly encourage you to ask questions of the development team directly below this article. Remember, though, that developers don't work in marketing or any other role other than creating and developing the game.

Last, but not least: Remember to enter your correct ID in the survey! We need to know it to send you your reward.

If you’re playing the game on Steam - here’s how you can find your SteamID:

First click on your nickname in the top right corner and go to your account details.


And then copy the Steam ID.

Greetings from the enthusiastic WLG crew and WW3 team!
World War 3 - 2000Valand
Greetings Operators!

We start the new year with the kick-off of a new tradition - a regular Q&A with various departaments working on WW3.

Without further prolongation, below you will find answers to the questions you asked under our posts and article about changes in the organization and ownership of World War 3 game.

Q: Any words about the future of the game?
A: Hey there! We’re aware that the project has many issues right now and we’re working on development priorities. We are currently focusing on fixes and long due changes. However, we will not be releasing them in small doses, but will be preparing one big update.
Our goal is to make the game stable, improve its performance on a wide variety of PC specs and bring lots of new content to the game: maps, weapons, game modes, etc.
Hold tight for the lowdown in Q1 2024!

Q: Console plans for WW3?
A: We feel the console vibes, but right now, we're focused on fine-tuning the PC version. Consoles aren't in the immediate cards, unfortunately.

Q: Any plans on making helicopters as actual vehicles and not streaks?
A: For now we think that the “Strikes” game mechanic works pretty good and is one of the positive features of WW3. Shifting gears would gobble up resources, and right now, we're all about game stability and optimization. Got cool ideas? Share with us!

Q: What about the external launcher?
A: We do have plans to launch and distribute the game client via Steam.

Q: More geo-located maps, like New York?
A: Yes, we want to further explore the idea of “dark tourism”, when you visit the places in the world you know of, but in a setting of a global conflict.
We intend to develop the idea of maps based on real places. But we also don't want to make very similar maps, we want new maps to have unique gameplay styles.

Q: Anti-cheat plans?
A: Project already has an anti-cheat called MRAC. But at this time we're in the middle of testing other solutions that we'll definitely explore later in better detail.

Q: Am I going to lose my operators and blueprints?
A: No we're not planning resets and players will keep all of their belongings. Applies to both paid and hard-earned content.

Q: Game going P2W?
A: We understand your concerns, however P2W is a no-go; We are insistent on keeping P2W out, and monetisation to a strictly cosmetic system.

Q: Changing WW3 foundations and unique vision?
A: Nope! Keeping the core close, expanding with feedback in mind. No reason to worry about core gameplay being excessively affected. We wish to carefully expand the gameplay instead of breaking things that people love.

Q: Any changes for the progression system?
A: Brainstorming phase! Speeding up early progression for new players might be a thing, we're satisfied with the backbone of progression, but we do hope that deeper development research will provide us with tools to make it better.

Q: Server expansions to OCE, South America?
A: Hey, we see that SA and OCE servers are being requested, and we appreciate your excitement to play World War 3! Focusing on game tech fixes first, especially matchmaking system. Once sorted, new server spots might be on the radar.

Q: Moving to UE5? Upgrading UE4?
A: Right now we are fixing aspects of the game that are not working or otherwise need improvements. This is going to be an enormous task itself, so we really can’t consider such huge overhauls as moving to UE5 until the basics are done and dusted.

Q: Web inventory system removal?
A: Still on the drawing board. Will heavily depend on the project's technical rework. This served as a backup system that allowed us to avoid some issues in the past, but we will definitely look into its optimization.

Q: Reworking weapon sounds?
A: Not top-tier priority right now, but we are not excluding the possibility of working on this one day and bringing it to our players.

Q: Planned Season 4 content still happening?
A: Tech fixes in the pipeline for a major update next year, therefore we can not focus on releasing a content update as planned, but fear not, we will release Season 4 with the new content at a later date.

Q: Server browser, please?
A: A chance! Figuring out the details with the new dev team.

Q: Do you have plans to extend the current season?
A: Absolutely! We've extended the current season, while our new dev team is working on the new one.

We hope you will like this form of communication. Another chance to ask questions soon! This time directly to the developers.

Winter is a good time to calmly enjoy your favorite game. However, we have prepared something else for you to make your interaction with World War 3 even more pleasant.

The following event will be available in the game from December 24th 00:01 UTC, until January 08th 23:59 UTC

Log to the game for eight days during event period to receive all the prizes we have prepared for you. This includes the 'Cold Night' Operator and the 'MSBS-B Snowflake' rifle.

Cold Night Operator - The operator is ideally prepared for windy and wet weather conditions prevailing at the beginning or end of winter. Goggles and balaclava protect against the unpleasant touch of cold rain or wet snow. The winter version of the camouflage Multicam with green accents is perfect for the beginning or end of winter. The bare hands allow better handling of the weapon in adverse weather conditions.


MSBS-B “Snowflake” - At first glance, this carbine is the embodiment of the well-known maxim: "How many accessories do you want on a weapon - Yes". However, it is not decked out like a Christmas tree for no reason. It has been configured for night operations in winter weather, hence the black camouflage with white accents. The 2x zoom holographic sight, combined with a precision barrel tipped with a suppressor and a comfortable grip, will allow you to eliminate enemies with precision and silence.


Every new day you login to game, up to 8 days, you will receive a reward:

Day 1: WEB Assault vest with SMOCK jacket


Day 2: BWS Pants


Day 3: Mechanix gloves


Day 4: Balaclava with profile goggles


Day 5: 6B47 Helmet and Cold Night operator


Day 6: Legendary XP booster


Day 7: Legendary XP booster


Day 8: MSBS-B "Snowflake" blueprint


All rewards will be available via your web inventory: https://worldwar3.com/inventory. Sign in, select the items and press "Transfer Items" button. They will appear in your game.


Also take a look at our sale, where we have prepared many epic items, such as: "Beryl 762 Red Devil", "Type X Pacific Wind", "Scar-H Vixen".

We hope you will enjoy the event and the sale. Have a great Christmas and happy new year's eve!
