If you like shaky cameras and droopy moustaches, then do we have the teaser for you! Tannenberg 1914-1918 heads for Early Access!
But, as you'd expect from a teaser, it's still further away than you would have likely hoped. Prepare to brave through the colder climes, as it's set for a November 16 release.
A hybrid of sorts, Tannenburg is considered a standalone expansion to popular WW1 multiplayer FPS title 'Verdun'. Exploring the Eastern Front campaign of the great war, players will switch over from the conflict of the Western Front of Verdun to fight on the border of the Russian Empire.

Though an FPS on first look, the squad-based tactical approach needed to launch worthwhile attacks in Verdun make their way over to Tannenburg; meaning it's a first-person shooter that demands more strategic thinking than most others. The tried and tested 'run n' gun' or 'spray' lone-wolf methods aren't going to get you far here.
Inspired by the Battle of Tannenburg taking place in 1914, the idea of this game is to recreate "one of the most iconic encirclement battles in history". To do that, Blackmill Games and M2H are making sure to aim for historical accuracy, meaning you should expect authentic uniforms and weaponry, forests and mountains - and ever copious amounts of gore. War was anything but censored.
Keeping up with info, however, September 1st delivered an extended look at the new Poland map.
