'United 1944' Available On Steam Early Access - Trailer

United 1944 is a multiplayer FPS that combines shooter, strategy and crafting to offer an immersive war experience.

Squad up in 16v16 base conquest matches in the WW2 theaters of France & North Africa, with more coming soon.

In United 1944, soldiers and civilians will fight together to take the last stand. Domination takes more than being a good marksman, as you’ll have to work together to scavenge for supplies, fortify your HQ, defend outposts, and craft your arsenal if you’re to win the final battle. Overcome your adversaries by using the resources you gathered to build defensive walls, set mines, and block streets with barricades.

There are no predetermined classes in United 1944, so you’ll have to evolve your playstyle to your team’s needs through an open-ended skill tree during each match. Mix and match over 40 abilities across skill trees for engineer, recon, sharpshooter, explorer and support roles. Become a spy when night falls, or a sniper from the rooftop when the new day dawns. Maybe you want to stay out of the frontlines and focus on crafting medicine to heal your teammates. Create your own fighter to help turn the tide of war!

With a dynamic day/night cycle, dense cities where every building is traversable and offers unique lines of sight, and 18 weapons ranging from improvised rifles and makeshift shotguns, to classics such as M1 Garand, MP40, Kar98k, and many more period appropriate firearms, United 1944 seeks to offer the most immersive take on WWII battles yet. You’ll have to use the entirety of the war torn maps to gain a strategic advantage by skillfully traversing rooftops and tunnels while cleverly taking advantage of the time of day to gain the upper hand.

After several public betas, involving thousands of players from all around the world, United 1944 is now available through Steam Early Access for $29.99 USD / 29.99 € / £24.99 with a 20% launch discount during one week.

Featuring two game modes, three large maps, more than 20 weapons, and over 40 skills, United 1944 is a rich multiplayer FPS that is as addicting as it is satisfying. Players can jump right into the fury of the largest battles of WWII spanning from the French Countryside and Northern Africa, to D-Day France, all while taking part in 16v16 battles of classic domination! Whether you’re scavenging for resources, defending outposts, fortifying bases, crafting your gear, or just fighting the enemy to the last, there’s lots to do and the battles are rooted in realistic but fun gameplay. 

In addition to the classic domination mode, players will also be able to jump into the unique extraction-based Survivor mode, where everyone’s an enemy and survival is anything but guaranteed. Look for resources, explore the city, and set up improvised bases anywhere as you fight for survival. Build, raid, kill, steal, scavenge, and destroy as you need for survival. Play for as long as you want, do your best to stay standing, and make it out with as much loot as possible. Do you have what it takes to survive?

This brings the total content for the December 12th launch to two game modes, three large maps, more than 20 weapons, and more than 40 skills, with more on its way starting in early 2024.

This content is only the beginning and there’s a lot more coming to United 1944 starting as soon as this month and into early 2024, as the development team at Novarama is excited to share a roadmap of what’s to come, including new weapons, a Soviet Town map, new skills, game systems, a game mode update, and more.


A Twitch drops campaign will be happening during the launch week for exclusive rewards to Twitch viewers.

Key Features:

  • 16 vs 16 territorial control urban warfare in the Domination mode and a sandbox extraction mode for up to 24 players in the Survivor mode. 
  • Three large maps with advanced outposts to conquer, with more coming soon, and freeform building of walls, doors, barricades, and platforms to fortify positions.
  • In-session skill tree with 40+ skills to choose mid-battle.
  • 20+ weapons including WWII classics, like M1 Garand, MP40, or the Kar98k, and makeshift resistance weapons.
  • Solid weapon model: damage falloff, ballistics projectiles, recoil, and spread, and weapon audio recorded live from original World War II guns.
  • Full communications system: ping, VoIP (proximity, squad), text chat.

United 1944 is in development for PC (Steam), scheduled for full launch in early 2024.
