Steel Division 2: Men of Steel brings 8 new divisions, as well as new nations, including Bulgaria. There is much more, from a host of new and unusual units to expanded Unit Traits and 2 new Aces. A wide range of new infantry and combat soldiers await your command, from the fearsome French Goumiers mountain warriors, Canadian-American Forcemen to elite Decima Mas Italian naval troops.

So, what can you expect?

The release of Steel Division 2: Men of Steel


As you might know, our new Steel Division 2: Men of Steel expansion has been a long time coming. We have a whole bunch of interesting background information, division details, new unit breakdowns, the new unit traits detailed, and much more for you to read. A full list can be found further below.

Before continuing, please remember that the Steel Division 2: Men of Steel will also come with a balance update available to all non-owners of the expansion. The key takeaway is that several unit traits will be implemented retroactively to a number of Steel Division 2 units, plus some divisional changes. A rundown of what will be updated in the patch can be found in this overview here.
