How co-op works

Up to five online players crew each U-boat, filling captain, navigator, helmsman, radio, and dive-officer stations and operating its controls manually. They share bearings and orders to plot convoy interceptions, calculate torpedo solutions, control depth and speed, attack, and evade escorts; multiple submarines can cooperate.

About this game

Wolfpack drops you and your crew into the claustrophobic confines of a World War II German U-boat, where survival depends on tight coordination across every station. This is true cooperative simulation, not a competitive mode. Each player mans a different role, from sonar and radio to the torpedo room and periscope, working together to hunt convoys and evade destroyers.

The game models realistic submarine systems that demand constant communication. You will call out target bearings, manage battery reserves, plot intercept courses, and coordinate torpedo launches while depth charges explode around you. Success hinges on how well your crew talks, listens, and reacts under pressure, making every patrol feel genuinely tense.

Wolfpack supports online co-op for multiple crews, and you can even coordinate wolfpack tactics with other U-boats during missions inspired by historical operations. Solo play is available, but the game shines when a full crew shares the workload and the nerve-wracking atmosphere of submarine warfare.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many players does it take to crew a U-boat?

The game supports online co-op where each player mans a different station like sonar, radio, torpedo room, or periscope. You can also play solo if you prefer, but the experience is designed around having a crew work together across multiple roles.

Do we need voice chat to play this effectively?

Yes, absolutely. Wolfpack requires constant communication between crew members to call out target bearings, coordinate torpedo launches, and manage systems under pressure. Without voice chat, coordinating all the realistic submarine systems would be extremely difficult.

What does 'wolfpack' gameplay mean in this game?

Multiple U-boat crews can play together online and coordinate tactics during missions, just like the historical wolfpack tactics where several submarines hunted convoys as a group. Each crew operates their own U-boat while working together on shared objectives.

Is this game still in Early Access?

Yes, Wolfpack is currently in Early Access, so features and content are still being developed and refined. The core co-op submarine simulation is playable, but expect ongoing updates and potential changes.
