What our fans say

"Nothing gets your blood pumping more then sneaking up to 2 Tanks so you can blow them up with death always a possibility within reach of your success."

"Ressuply, recon, attack, defend, infiltrate, build, destroy, repair, drive, fly... whatever task you decide to endorce during these re-enacted WWII combined-arms battles, your most surprising experience will be about people management and true companionship."

"Realistic ballistics and damage models, a 100+ vehicles and units to choose from, and a vast and ever-changing battleground: it never gets old!"

"This game makes a history of it's own. In my 31 years of playing video games, no game has quite gotten under my skin so deeply and indelibly than WWII Online!"

"World War II Online- There is NO substitute"

"I had have to say that it's the relationships and friends you meet in this game that make this game rock!"

"In a massive battle for a town, there can be over a hundred players playing as infantry, tanks, and planes."

"The sheer scale of the 24/7 persistent map, the endless tactical possibilities at the disposal to Squad CO's and HC when planning and carrying out an attack. Using the strenghts that only a true combined arms warfare game can deliver, ww2ol delivers all of that and have been since 2001, once you've experienced such an event, only one word will come to your mind; EPIC!"

"When the battles you fight today directly affect the course of the game for weeks, not just minutes or hours, everything you do is taken to a whole new level!"

"Whether your a grunt, a flying ace, a destroyer captain or a hardcore tanker get ready for the hardest pvp game ever on the gaming world's biggest map with the most heavily armed playerbase on the planet!"

"The game is difficult, the frustration sometimes high, therefore when success in game is achieved its all the more rewarding, you will get hooked if you give it time!"

"If you were any good, you'd already be here!"

"When you have tried the rest..come to the best...WWIIOL!!"

WBS Extension & Call to Action

XOOM

S! Soldiers, Airman and Sailors of WWII Online. Yesterday we had our greatest online presence of users since our original Steam release, with over 2.5x the normal population and we got up to 6 Attack Objectives ~ which is seriously awesome! I have seen many great friends of our community come back, a wave of enthusiasm from our players who are here, and a request from many to continue WBS. Therefore I'm announcing today a free 72 hour extension to "Welcome Back Soldier," which will push the end date from March 24th (Tuesday) to March 27th (Friday). I am also announcing, that all Free Players will receive ALL INFANTRY access with immediate effect, until March 27th as well.

We know that times are hard and we're happy to be one of the online services in a position to help ease the current burdens being placed on friends all over the globe. As WWII Online has a world-wide fanbase, we take this entertainment option quite a bit more seriously. I think it's also important to say that WWII Online has had a hard time in Q4-2019 and we're still coming out of recovery. So we hope that we've been able to show our willingness, in mutual tough circumstances, to provide the free service that we can to the extent that we can. I am also hopeful, along with all of my colleagues at CRS that we see many of you stay, and subscribe come this weekend. Veteran players... be on the look out for a special offer e-mail sent to you, we will do everything we can to accommodate these difficult times.

This past weekend demonstrated that while WWII Online has been around awhile, when we have our players packed into the server, it's unlike anything else in the gaming industry. It was truly exceptional and I'd like to thank everyone for their participation over this weekend, we hope you stay with us for more!
