What began on mainland Europe, was never likely to end there… Prepare for relentless WW1 beach landings and desert warfare across the Middle Eastern Front in Gallipoli!

Faced with the deadlocked trenches of the Western Front, the Triple Entente looked for new pathways to victory. What was thought to be a quick expeditionary campaign to remove a German ally from the war, ended up in a disastrous four-year campaign: the Ottoman Empire wasn’t going down without a fight.

Gallipoli marks the fourth entry in the WW1 Game Series, further broadening its authentic and realistic FPS combat experience to give you the deepest dive into the Middle Eastern Front of World War 1 yet.

Experience the varied battlefields of the front, including the Gallipoli and Mesopotamia campaigns. Land on the beaches of Gallipoli with the ANZACs to seize the Dardanelles, fight in the streets of war-torn towns to defend Ottoman-controlled soil, and charge to victory across no man’s land under the scorching sun.

Work together as a squad to gain an edge over your opponents in PVP combat. Pick from many different classes, each with an essential role on the battlefield. Take the lead as an Officer, lay down suppressive fire as a Light Machine Gunner, or keep your squad in the fight as a Stretcher Bearer! Weighty weapon handling and methodical reloads keep the engagements grounded, affected by your mental state and familiarity with each weapon. Explore the authentic arsenals of the British and Ottoman empires.Soon, it’s up to you to join the expeditionary campaigns of the Middle Eastern Front and experience the brutal combat of Gallipoli!

A Brief History of WW1 Game Series

Starting in 2013, Verdun was the first Dutch game to be greenlit on Steam, becoming a breakout success that laid the foundation for the series. It introduced players to authentic WW1 action with close-quarters trench warfare, period weaponry, and iconic Western Front battlefields.

Tannenberg expanded the experience with large-scale maneuver warfare on the Eastern Front, while Isonzo took the series to new heights with intense alpine combat in the Italian Alps and received widespread acclaim. 

Over the past 12 years, Blackmill games has evolved all the games in the series, with 24 free expansions (10 for Verdun, 5 for Tannenberg, and 9 for Isonzo) and aim to continue that way. Together, the WW1 Game Series has sold more than 2 million copies, now the next chapter begins with Gallipoli.

Gallipoli: The Next Front

BlackMill Games is continuing development on the next title, Gallipoli, set to launch in 2026. The FPS will take players to one of WW1’s most iconic and under-represented campaigns, expanding the series with dramatic new Middle Eastern settings, tactics, and terrain.

Players can sign up here for upcoming Gallipoli playtests, with the first session taking place on the evening of 19 September. Exact start and end times will be shared with those invited to join.
