How to use

Simply add "{{Game navbox}}" to put a navigation panel (with default items).

Note: For first-generation games, use {{Game navbox|param3=First generation}} instead. This will change the "Tricks and glitches" link to the correct one.

Customisation

This panel contains 7 sub-templates:

{{Game navbox/Releases}}	{{Game navbox/Software}}
{{Game navbox/Game technology}}	{{Game navbox/Online play}}
{{Game navbox/Community}}

• {{Game navbox/FAQs}} (WA only)
• {{Game navbox/Wormopaedia}} (WWP only)

There are 2 methods to change the sub-templates.

Method 1

(Recommended) Using 1-6 parameters. Specify which template to use by using a template tag (like this: {{template|params}}).

{{{1}}}	{{{2}}}
{{{3}}}	{{{4}}}
{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}

Method 2

Using boxN and paramN parameters. boxN specifies the name of the sub-templates, while paramN are their parameters.

{{Game navbox/ {{{box1}}} | {{{param1}}} }}	{{Game navbox/ {{{box2}}} | {{{param2}}} }}
{{Game navbox/ {{{box3}}} | {{{param3}}} }}	{{Game navbox/ {{{box4}}} | {{{param4}}} }}
{{Game navbox/ {{{box5}}} | {{{param5}}} }}	{{Game navbox/ {{{box6}}} | {{{param6}}} }}

Example

Both of the following replace the upper-right cell (box2) with Template:Game navbox/Sample:

• (method 1) {{Game navbox|2={{Template:Game navbox/Sample}} }}
• (method 2) {{Game navbox|box2=Sample}}
