WWII Online

Make history come to life or change it completely as WWII Online demonstrates the scale of combined arms warfare in a breathtaking and brutally realistic gaming experience. All combat is in first person alongside live players in the same game world where every vehicle or weapon is controlled by a real person. The game world is a single zone-less map set at half scale of the Western European Theater between 1939-1944. From this map, the game provides winnable campaigns that are completely player-controlled and non-scripted.

Play as a soldier, pilot, ship captain, paratrooper, truck driver, mission leader, high command officer, squad leader and much more!

A review of WWII Online after 1.36

XOOM

So you've all heard about this big glorious patch called "1.36 Hybrid Supply." We've talked about it for the last couple of years and we're right now in the middle of the first Campaign of this, and we have some great observations to share with you. Here's the big news: it's working as intended, and has received an 84% approval rating from in-game polling. Players are now deciding where to go, supply is available for all personas on a greater scale, High Command officers are not overburdened and that old school WWII Online feel of battles is back! Let's dive into this update and get some more detail.
