Image: Steam / its publisher

  • Realistic shooter
  • World War II
  • Team-based

A realistic World War II shooter: team battles of up to 64 players in Stalingrad and, with Rising Storm, in the Pacific, with real ballistics, one-shot kills, first-person cover and tanks.

Why play it now

When you fancy a tense, tactical online team battle where one shot is enough and taking cover is everything.

Who it's for

For anyone after a realistic, tactical war shooter with squads, roles and orders, nothing arcade-like.

When not to pick it

If you want to play alone: it is online-only and its old campaign against the AI is no longer available.

What it offers

  • Combat / action: 85 out of 100
  • Competing: 85 out of 100
  • Thinking: 55 out of 100
