call-to-arms-panzer-eliteToday, the first major content update for Call to Arms: Panzer Elite is hitting Steam Early Access. The update marks a key milestone in the game’s evolution, introducing the United States as a fully playable faction and expanding the battlefields of its growing WWII tank warfare experience.

Players can now enter the war from the American perspective with the addition of a lineup of classic U.S. tanks and the first dedicated mission, Operation Frost Line. This single-player and co-op Conquest scenario delivers intense winter combat and tactical depth, setting the stage for future missions already in development.

The update also brings two new skirmish maps – Kleinhau and Le Mesnil-Tove – available across 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3 modes, alongside a range of under-the-hood improvements to sound, interface, and vehicle handling to make every clash feel more authentic and immersive.

Every shell fired. Every maneuver made. Every decision counts.

    Wehrmacht – Last Stand Battlegroup: Victory requires sacrifice. Bolster your line with powerful improvised defenses and embolden your ground forces with a number of extraordinary measures.

    europa-universalis-vEuropa Universalis V, a major reworking of Paradox Interactive’s iconic historical grand strategy game, is available today. Explore a deeply researched world, writing your own history of any nation on earth from the late medieval era to the dawn of the Victorian Age. Guide a living society divided by class, culture and faith through the Black Death, the Renaissance, the Age of Exploration, Wars of Religion and more as the map changes around.

    For the first time, Europa Universalis players must devote attention to the needs of their population, as the supply of food and other necessities will dictate the strength of their empire. Build trade markets, explore the globe to seek out new luxuries and wrestle with the various estates of your realm as push your society towards new values and ideas.

    Choose the sword or the pen, the religious or the secular, the aristocracy or the people. The entire world is yours. Be ambitious.

    Watch History Unfold Before You

    RULE a land of your choosing. Hundreds of nations are yours to command, as you guide the destiny of millions of people through the late Middle Ages up to the Age of Revolution – from the mighty Yuán Dynasty to the city-states of Italy, from the warring clans of feudal Japan to the Pope himself.
    DECIDE which course your nation will take. Historical events and situations await as you chart a unique path through a new history written by your decisions. Experience The Hundred Years’ War, the Protestant Reformation, the collapse of old dynasties and rise of new ones.
    EXPLORE alternate histories as you shape the world to meet your ambitions. What if England succeeded in pressing its continental claims? What if China pursued an overseas empire? What if Mongol supremacy in Russia persisted? Every action opens the possibility for an original history.

    Prove Your Mettle as a Ruler

    IMPOSE domestic peace in a divided realm. Keep your nation’s factions in line as Estates jockey for power in your nation. Offer privileges to one group of citizens while you limit the power of another, all in the service of keeping your population under control.
    NEGOTIATE your way through an uneasy peace. Use diplomacy to entrench your dynasty across realms or build an invincible alliance. But remember that nations have no permanent friends – only permanent interests; so use your ambassadors carefully. Exact favors from friends, send threats to enemies, and keep an eye on everyone in-between.
    CONQUER new lands to expand your borders. Wage War on those who impede your ambition in a completely new Europa Universalis military system. Start in the age of levies and mercenaries and, through social development, evolve to vast standing armies and impenetrable fortresses. Choose skilled commanders to oversee both land and naval forces.

    Develop Your Society

    BUILD a strong economic infrastructure in the most detailed trade system yet seen in a Europa Universalis game. Dozens of goods and crops are available for production and trade on a map filled with new riches to discover. Invest in feeding a growing population or trade your surplus to less bountiful societies.
    MOLD your society to meet the historical moment. Choose your societal values, with new options opening as the ages move on. Centralize power at court or share it with your nobles. Pursue a tolerant policy for all faiths or condemn heretics. Emphasize massed armies or an elite cadre of quality soldiers.
    GOVERN a nation composed of many cultures and faiths in a detailed simulation of the past. For the first time in Europa Universalis, populations are represented on the map in detail, so provinces may be divided by religion or culture. Your decisions will determine how these populations will fare under your leadership.

    Be Ambitious

    PREVAIL in the greatest strategic challenges of the past. Test your expertise in grand strategic planning on a worldscape larger and more detailed than seen in any previous Paradox Interactive game. Challenge yourself to outdo the most famous rulers of the past, eclipsing their grand accomplishments and building your own vision of a richly detailed globe.

    arma-reforgerBohemia Interactive is excited to announce the release of Arma Reforger’s 1.6 Update, which brings one of the most significant content additions since the game’s launch. Players across all platforms can now take part in Operation Omega, re-visit the island of Kolguyev, and try out a major overhaul of the Conflict game mode.

    Watch the trailer for the update here.

    New Map: Kolguyev
    Rebuilt in the Enfusion engine, the iconic island of Kolguyev returns. Players can explore a rugged volcanic terrain of pine forests, rocky ridges, and abandoned industrial sites, which presents a clear contrast to Everon’s green valleys. The island’s hot springs, sulfur streams, and remains of old coal industry add both atmosphere and strategic depth.

    Conflict Reinvented
    The classic Conflict experience has been completely reworked into the Headquarters Commander (HQC) mode. Take on the role of Commander, manage resources, construct bases anywhere on the island, and lead squads through assigned objectives. A supply scarcity system introduces new gameplay element, that further encourages the motivation of players to have an impact and be creative.

    Singleplayer Scenarios
    Update 1.6 introduces two new solo experiences for players looking to test their skills alone:

  • Operation Omega: A five-episode campaign following a special forces unit behind enemy lines.
  • Air Support: A mission-based scenario focused on helicopter transport, logistics, and close air support.
  • Both bring back the cinematic, story-driven missions long associated with the Arma series. Check out the trailer here.

    Expanded Arsenal and Systems
    The armory now includes a range of new weapons and equipment, including the RPG-22 and RPG-75 launchers, new camouflage options, hand flares, and engineer tools like constructable sandbags, static weapons, and anti-personnel mines. System updates include moving on vehicles, reworked FIA factions, HOTAS and peripheral support, enhanced environmental effects, and numerous performance improvements.

    You can read the full changelog here.

    broken-arrowThe new Broken Arrow Patch – out now – focuses on strengthening protection against cheaters while improving overall stability and balance.

    Since launch, developer Steel Balalaika and publisher Slitherine have worked tirelessly to listen to community feedback and ensure the best possible gameplay experience. The fight against unfair play has now taken a major step forward with the introduction of the Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) system. Working alongside the existing internal anti-cheat system, EAC offers players two launch options when starting Broken Arrow:

  • Launch Offline (without EAC) – Designed for players who prefer a single-player experience and do not plan to participate in online modes.
  • Launch Broken Arrow (with EAC activated) – Grants access to all multiplayer features and team-based battles.
  • This is the most significant change introduced by the update, but it’s not the only one. As a special Halloween treat, a brand new zombie scenario has been added, inspired by a workshop creation from community member Joining Player. It can be played by 1 to 4 players in co-op mode, and features a unique visual and sound atmosphere designed specifically for the map. Players will face off against different types of zombies and command various forces to fight them in an intense and immersive survival experience.

    Alongside this, several smaller changes have been made:

  • Introduction of support for server-side network architecture
  • Mission Editor improvements
  • Balance adjustments
  • Bug fixes
  • To know more about all the improvements read the changelog here.

    “Spearhead” content update is coming this November

    Gaijin Entertainment is pleased to announce that the major content update “Spearhead” for the military action online game War Thunder will be releasing this November. There’s dozens of new ground, air and naval vehicles for players to look forward to, including the British Hawk 200 strike aircraft, and the modern French Jaguar EBRC and the Chinese CM-34 recon vehicles. The colossal battleship Musashi will also be arriving, the sistership of the legendary Yamato.

    ‘Spearhead’ Update Trailer

    The British Hawk project was originally conceived as a jet trainer, but also proved to be a popular light fighter and strike aircraft, subsonic and highly maneuverable. The Hawk 200 modification first flew in 1986 and was exported to Indonesia, Malaysia, and Oman, while the entire Hawk family is used by more than a dozen countries. For air-to-air combat, the aircraft is armed with four AIM-9L Sidewinder missiles and 30mm cannons, but the Hawk 200′s primary role is to strike ground and surface targets. Its expansive arsenal also includes powerful Sea Eagle anti-ship missiles, a new weapon in War Thunder.

    The Jaguar EBRC was developed as part of a large-scale modernization program for the French Army, with the first batch of vehicles entering service in 2021. It is a fast, wheeled reconnaissance vehicle equipped with cutting edge weaponry and equipment. Its 40mm CTC autocannon fires APFSDS and AHEAD rounds to effectively combat both ground and air targets. Its large turret is equipped with a launcher for a pair of Akeron MP anti-tank missiles with a tandem warhead, which can penetrate over 1,000 mm of armor. The Jaguar EBRC also features a modern fire control system, including a panoramic commander sight, a laser warning receiver, and thermal imaging for both the gunner and commander sights. On roads, the Jaguar can comfortably reach speeds up to 90 km/h.

    The CM-34 Yunbao is a Chinese wheeled reconnaissance vehicle with high speed, excellent electronics, spall liners and a powerful 30mm Bushmaster cannon. It can achieve staggering speeds of up to 100 km/h on roads and can reach 40 km/h in reverse as well. In the game, the CM-34 fits perfectly into Rank VI vehicle lineups and will be a key vehicle on fast-paced maps, ideal for capturing locations or flanking enemies.

    You can find more information on all the new vehicles coming to War Thunder in the Spearhead major update on the official website.
