announcement:

We’re proud to announce that WW1 game Verdun has officially launched today! After more than a year in Early Access on Steam, the official copy of Verdun is now available on PC, Mac and Linux.

Check out the new Game Trailer:


We are excited to announce that the game is released with a new bonus map called Aisne; an area in Northern France which has seen some of the biggest battles of the early years of World War 1.

Years of dedicated hard work has finally paid off. During that time, Verdun was also being featured on Steam Early Access since 2013 where many big community driven improvements were made to the game. We had not expected the great extend of support received from the community during this time.

Over the course of the year, many good suggestions were made and put into the game. Whilst not every good suggestion made it in, we intend to add a few more in the near future.

Verdun will get free thematic expansions over the course of time, such as the addition of Belgian and American troops for the Allies, and for the Axis some special German troops. Check out the roadmap here: http:// www.verdungame.com/images/PR/verdun_roadmap.png

To celebrate the release, several contests will be held including the first Verdun tournament hosted on Steam. http://steamcommunity.com/app/242860/discussions/0/611704730329624708/

Be sure to try Verdun and take the fight to the trenches of your enemies!

I've been playing a fair amount of this and really liking it. Pity the servers are rarely populated. I wonder if it has something to do with the peculiarity of playing a game set in a conflict that remains a cause of discomfort. Might just be an Aussie thing but I personally felt odd playing it... despite having played plenty of games set in other more recent and just as fraught conflicts.

Is WWIIOnline still a thing? I played that like crazy so many years ago. My username originated there. Good times.

Still seems to be going. Its got that hardcore war crowd. They upgraded some stuff visually like 5 or 6 years ago but the engine just cant do much so its still sore sight
