FAQ

How can I play 1942?
You can play 1942 online for free right in your browser on 8BitGo. No download or emulator installation is required.
What platform is 1942?
8BitGo classifies this version as Arcade. That describes how it runs here and may differ from the game's original release platform. You can play it directly in the browser.
Can I save my progress in 1942?
Save support depends on how this game runs. Quick saves and cloud saves are available only when the player toolbar shows a save control; otherwise use the game's own save feature.
Does 1942 work on mobile?
It depends on the game. Check the controls on this page: games with on-screen buttons work on touch devices, while keyboard-and-mouse games are best played on desktop.

Controls

These are the default keys. Every arcade board has a different number of buttons and means different things by them. The rows above are buttons 1–6 on the board: on Neo Geo boards (The King of Fighters and friends) A/B/C/D are buttons 1–4, Metal Slug uses only 1, 2 and 4 (shoot / jump / grenade), and Pac-Man uses none at all. Six-button fighters with three punches and three kicks (Street Fighter II and the like) get a different layout from the core: light punch U, medium punch I, heavy punch Q, light kick J, medium kick K, heavy kick E. Click the gamepad icon 🎮 in the player toolbar, then “Remap keys” to open the emulator’s own control settings (keyboard and gamepad, saved automatically). Gamepads are detected automatically. On phones you get on-screen buttons.
