Watch the Gallipoli – Release Date Reveal Trailer HERE.

As teased in the trailer, players can experience the renowned beach landing in First Person, rowing from sea to shore in fragile boats under heavy fire. Jump from your rowboat onto the beaches to seek cover from enemy fire, and at a later stage fight their way across the hills to the front line trenches.

Set across the pivotal campaigns on the Ottoman Fronts of the First World War, Gallipoli delivers an authentic depiction of WW1 combat, with a focus on the Gallipoli campaign and the ANZACs. Relive the battles that unfolded from the Gallipoli Peninsula, including an authentic recreation of ANZAC Cove, to Lower Mesopotamia, taking up arms as soldiers of the British Empire or the Ottoman forces.

Players can also look forward to historically accurate details such as personal explosive devices made from ration tins, ‘slouch’-style hats for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, and a recreation of the infamous beach landings, featuring the iconic (but dangerous) rowboats.

Jos Hoebe, founder of BlackMill Games spoke on the development and the significance of ANZAC day to their community, “Ahead of ANZAC Day this weekend, our new trailer aims to shine a light on ANZAC Cove, a battlefield we’ve carefully brought to life in-game. It’s a setting that carries real historical weight and we hope to encourage reflection on the events that took place there.”
