Today, Gaijin Entertainment and Darkflow Software have announced a new WWII FPS called Enlisted. Enlisted is a new squad based multiplayer shooter for PC dedicated to the most important large scale World War II battles, and it will be a fan driven game, meaning they are developing and will release two massive campaigns plus several game modes upfront, and then, based on demand and funds raised, will add new campaigns and even console version. The press release is below my signature.
I remember not all that long ago complaining that FPS games had left WWII behind, but thanks to the sucess of Battlefield 1 it looks like things have swung back around. Such is the way of the world it seems. What is old is new once again.
Enlisted will initially offer two massive campaigns – The Battle of Normandy and the Battle of Moscow – with different game modes. Today, players can purchase these campaigns (collectively or individually) as well as weapons packs and early access to the closed beta, which will launch in the second half of 2017.
- Exclusive collector’s weapons will cost from 6.99 to 11.99 USD
- Weapon+Campaign pack will be from 20 to 25 USD depending weapon choice
- The biggest pack for 50 USD will include both campaigns, three weapons and will provide the owner with early access to the game
“Enlisted is an ambitious undertaking, unlike any game we have ever created. It will be a first person shooter decided by the fans, for the fans. They will have direct input into what we create, including things like campaigns, game modes, even which platforms after PC we will support,” said Alexander Nagorny, producer, Darkflow Software.
Gaijin Entertainment will reinvest all proceeds from Enlisted into developing additional maps, game modes and console versions. The plan is to start developing the African campaign once Enlisted generates $250K in sales.
More campaigns and new gameplay features, chosen by players through online voting, will go into development with each goal reached and at the $1m mark, consoles versions will go into development.
