Based on the successful mod for Insurgency, Day of Infamy has transformed into a full-fledged standalone game built with Source Engine.

Experience intense close-quarters battles in iconic WWII settings. Defend the line, storm the beach, torch the enemy, or use a radio to call in fire support.

One of the game’s primary focuses is with team coordination. Officers can direct their team in the field with a wide variety of command options, and may call in fire support if a radio operator is nearby. Fire support options include artillery barrage and smoke screen. Local voice is used to talk to your teammates in the game, but be careful because the enemy can hear you if you’re too close. Radio operators also serve as a communication beacon to those around them, as HQ and radio operator chatter can be heard through them.

With continued Steam Workshop support, players can create mods that contain all new factions, weapons, and more. You can expect to see custom mods, weapons, player skins, maps, and various other contributions from New World’s talented community.

As WWII shooter Day of Infamy celebrates its first birthday this Friday, the toll of battle is starting to rack up. In that time there’s been 2.7 billion rounds fired in 4.8 million matches, totalling over 236 million kills.

The developers will also be hosting a stream on Twitch.tv/NewWorld on Friday, March 23, at Noon EDT to help celebrate with a live Q&A, a look at unreleased game concept art, game giveaways and an opportunity to play with some members of the team. Fans are encouraged to stay tuned to Day of Infamy’s Twitter and Facebook account for more information.

Features include:

• 3 Multiplayer game modes 
  • Frontline - Both teams are given the objective of pushing through the map. A team wins when all objectives have been captured, or if the time runs out and a team has majority control of the battlefield. 
  • Liberation - To win, your team must capture all territorial objectives to liberate the area. Capturing points will gain your team more reinforcement waves. You will gain more waves by securing points behind enemy lines.
  • Offensive - The attacking team must capture one point at a time pushing back the entrenched enemy. When objectives are secured by the attacking team, additional waves and time is added to prolong the battle.
• 3 Cooperative game modes 
  • Stronghold - Move through enemy held territory and secure the area. Your team will be reinforced each time an objective is secured.
  • Patrol - Patrol the surrounding area. Be especially careful, as there are no reinforcement waves in this mode. Once your squad has reached its waypoint, you must either return to base or eliminate any discovered enemy forces in the area. 
  • Entrenchment - Defend the line at all costs. Make sure to fall back and regroup occasionally to keep your squad reinforced.
