Hello everyone! We are excited to bring you the next Rising Storm 2: Vietnam Media Update. While we previously introduced the famous M79 grenade launcher, today we want to talk about a different type of round. While the standard 40mm grenades were designed with a minimum arming distance to protect the user from self-inflicted injury and death, it was found that this very same mechanism left a soldier carrying an M79 as their primary weapon practically unarmed for short distance engagements, such as when dealing with bunkers, tunnels and close in jungle fighting.
The M576 40mm grenade replaces the stock high explosive grenade, firing a load of buckshot down range instead. Perfect for those close encounters - let’s take a look:
As always keep in mind that what you are seeing is a WIP!

We have a closed beta sign up form that has slowly been working its way around. We still do not have an official start date for the closed beta but we will keep everyone updated on when this will happen. We will be inviting a limited number of people, but we will have several phases and multiple ways to get a key as we ramp up towards the final release of the game.
