The "Forest Shadows" update will take you into the thickets of Brandenburg! The woodlands will surely help you cope with the heat of the summer.
New mission - Wald
The Battle of Seelow Heights took place in April 1945 and it played a major part in the encirclement of Berlin. We drew inspiration from these events and the unique landscape to create a new area for a large-scale confrontation between the German and Soviet forces, combining three distinctive sections: a dense forest, a heavily fortified outskirts and the streets of a mid-20th century German town.
In the forest areas, you'll have to take advantage of the rough terrain to fight your way to enemy positions, while overcoming bunkers and trenches hidden by the undergrowth.
On the outskirts of the town, it becomes clear that the network of fortifications was meant to hold back the enemy’s advance not only in the wooded areas, but also in the open fields.
A small German town from the middle of the 20th century - with its own peculiarities, such as anti-tank guns on the outskirts.
Back to the surrounding areas: even before the war, this town was protected by nature. Traveling through such landscapes was hardly without accidents, so when the war arrived, these ravines became a real challenge for the enemy. How do you push through an area where the fire could come from under any rock?
Late-war missions will bring variety to the confrontation between the German and Soviet forces: rough terrain, multiple fortifications, and urban areas encourage aggressive and swift actions.
For a short while after the update's release, the chance of getting these missions will be increased.
