Your support is needed WWIIOL Community!

We've officially launched the 2019 Funding Campaign for WWII Online, which is designed to provide the game with an entirely new server facility, built from the ground up with all new efficiency in terms of performance and power. It also means we'll be transferring WWIIOL from Dallas TX --> Portland OR, where CRS HQ is located.

We'll also be renewing some critical game development software, and upgrade our SpeedTree server development kit to the latest version, allowing us to have enhanced graphics for terrain objects.There's a lot more, please check the funding campaign below for a video presentation and a detailed written explanation of what more is to follow.

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!!"

We're upgrading our Billing System

TMAN

Attention WWII Online subscribers and supporters: We are pleased to announce that we will be transitioning our back office billing to a new and modern billing system called, "Braintree." This system will provide everyone with modern functionality and many more payment options such as Apple Pay and Google Pay in addition to credit cards and PayPal. This is a necessary change that will put our developers focus back onto Game Development as it will offload the need for CRS to maintain its own billing system. Please continue reading as there are important details on how to renew your subscription through our existing PayPal gateway.
