Verdun includes many historically accurate features such as true WW1 weaponry, historical maps based on sectors of the Western Front and authentic characters. The game immerses you both graphically and auditory into one of the bloodiest conflicts fought in Europe.
The true trench warfare offers a unique battlefield for tactical squad play in the Frontlines game mode and rifle Deathmatch. The Frontlines game mode is unique in its tactical complexity, where players are leveling in different types of squads, each with their own tactics and roles. The realistic trenches create an extra challenge for the players, where teamwork and tactical cunning are essential for success, which is; dominate the trenches in the Western Front!
During the Steam Early Access, the developers have taken the time to perfect the game. By listening to the community’s desires the game has grown into a unique FPS with a lot of historical depth, something the developers have always strived for.
The constant development and releases of updates have created a close and dedicated community that the developers can be proud of. The most notable improvements are; the introduction of the dreadful and iconic gas weapon combined with a claustrophobic gas-mask experience, the introduction of new troops, realistic maps such as the swampy Flanders map and the Artois map, and the Unity 5 engine upgrade which was a big improvement on performance and stability.
The last few updates have been focused on polishing the game and increasing the performance, but who knows, maybe the developers might have a surprise for us on release…
The developers have given a special thanks to all the players who’ve supported Verdun during the Steam Early Access, they will each receive a “Early Access Medal”. Also, Early Access players get exclusive access to the live release a day before the official launch, this as a gesture of the developer’s gratitude for their loyalty and support.
On top of it all a new event has been revealed; tournaments! Players are invited to sign up for the first Verdun tournament, which will be hosted on Steam during the celebration of the release.
