help Wakfu FAQ
Is Wakfu free to play?
Yes, Wakfu is free to play, with optional subscription perks and an in-game shop on top of the free access. Ankama Games launched the MMORPG in 2012 following a long open beta period.
How is Wakfu different from Dofus?
Both are Ankama titles set in the same World of Twelve, but Wakfu takes place roughly a thousand years after Dofus and adds systems like player-driven ecosystem management and politics on top of the grid-based tactical combat they share. Wakfu also leans more heavily into its anime-inspired presentation.
Is the Wakfu game connected to the Wakfu anime series?
Yes, the MMORPG and the animated series share the same universe and characters, including the hero Yugo, and Ankama cross-pollinates storylines between them. Ankama, headquartered in Roubaix, France, built its business on this transmedia ecosystem of games, animation, and comics.
Can you play Wakfu on Steam or only through Ankama?
Wakfu is available on Windows PC both through Steam and via Ankama's own launcher, and your account content works across them. The turn-based tactical combat makes it playable on modest hardware compared with most modern MMOs.
