'Steel Division II' Pre-order Get You Beta Access, 48-hours Early Access - Screens & Trailer

Steel Division II is a tactical World War II real-time strategy game set in 1944 on the Eastern Front during one of the biggest offensive of the WW2, Operation Bagration.

Set during Operation Bagration, the gigantic Soviet offensive in the summer of 1944, players in Steel Division II will not only enjoy massive and frenetic 10v10 multiplayer battles and hundreds of new historically authentic units, but also experience the brand new, turn-based, single-player ‘Dynamic Strategic Campaigns’.

Steel Division II significantly expands on the real-time tactical battles featured in its predecessor, transporting the player to the massive battlefields of the Eastern Front and offering them a chance to command over 600 units fielded by the Red Army and the Axis powers. Wield the destructive force of the Katyusha rockets or charge ahead with the T-34 tank, players will be able to choose from up to 18 new divisions. Substantial changes to the Deck building mechanics and combat, together with a more realistic art direction, will deliver a much more refined player experience in Steel Division II.

One of the major additions to Steel Division II are the new, turn-based Dynamic Strategic Campaigns, which will offer players a highly replayable experience where they relive history thanks to every detail being realized on a 1:1-scale - from the order of battle to the units, the maps and the combat . Each turn equals half a day, allowing players to form their strategy and plan their next encounter, while carefully managing their units and supply lines. Prospective commanders will be able to control entire army corps and subordinate battalions consisting of thousands of men.


Steel Division II is now available to pre-order via the official website, Gamesplanet, Humble Bundle – and coming soon to Steam and Amazon.

As a special treat for fans, all players who pre-order any edition of Steel Division 2 can look forward to guaranteed access to the Steel Division II Beta. The Steel Division 2 Beta will offer participants access to an early build of the game ahead of its anticipated launch. All pre-order editions of Steel Division II also include two exclusive cosmetic Aces, Camos, and more. Eugen Systems is also proud to announce that all players who purchase any edition of Steel Division 2 can look forward to 10 free DLC scheduled to release within one year of Steel Division 2’s upcoming launch.

In addition, players who pre-order the Commander Deluxe Edition, General Deluxe Edition, or Total Conflict Edition can also look forward to 48-hours of early access to the game ahead of its worldwide launch.
