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!

BlackMill Games announced that Gallipoli will launch on 21 May.

 The game is inspired by the historic Gallipoli campaign and the legacy of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZACs) during World War 1, featuring full crossplay on PC (Steam, Microsoft Store, Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S for €29.99 / $29.99 / £24.99.

As teased in the trailer, players can experience the renowned beach landing in First Person, rowing from sea to shore in fragile boats under heavy fire. Jump from your rowboat onto the beaches to seek cover from enemy fire, and at a later stage fight their way across the hills to the front line trenches.

Players can also look forward to historically accurate details such as personal explosive devices made from ration tins, ‘slouch’-style hats for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, and a recreation of the infamous beach landings, featuring the iconic (but dangerous) rowboats.

Jos Hoebe, founder of BlackMill Games spoke on the development and the significance of ANZAC day to their community, “Ahead of ANZAC Day this weekend, our new trailer aims to shine a light on ANZAC Cove, a battlefield we’ve carefully brought to life in-game. It’s a setting that carries real historical weight and we hope to encourage reflection on the events that took place there.”

Gallipoli is the newest sequel in the WW1 Game Series, which takes you along all major fronts of the Great War. Dive into the trenches along the Western Front in Verdun, charge for key sectors of the Eastern Front in Tannenberg, or scale the mountains of the Alpine Front in Isonzo!
