Armor Combat News

call-to-arms-panzer-eliteThe summer offensive is on! Digitalmindsoft is calling for commanders to man the turret in the upcoming tactical tank simulation Call to Arms: Panzer Elite. As the commander of a German armored battalion during the harrowing summer of 1944, players face the overwhelming force of the Allied advance following the D-Day landings. Your task during the campaign: organize defenses, launch counterattacks, and navigate the chaos of Normandy’s war-torn countryside in a game that blends historical authenticity with tactical depth.

Set against the backdrop of real-world operations, Call to Arms: Panzer Elite offers more than spectacle – it delivers a battlefield simulation where every engagement is shaped by the player’s decisions. Command up to five tanks in real time, switch seamlessly between vehicles to respond to shifting threats, and coordinate efforts with AI companions or fellow players in cooperative mode.

Check out the announcement trailer HERE.

Add Call to Arms: Panzer Elite to your Steam Wishlist.

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

Built in Unreal Engine 5, the game features destructible environments that are not only visually striking, but tactically significant. Collapsing buildings, craters, and battlefield debris shape the flow of combat and demand constant adaptation.

True to its name, Call to Arms: Panzer Elite brings an uncompromising level of detail to armor physics, ballistics, and battlefield damage. Designed for players who value historical accuracy, tactical complexity, and the raw intensity of mechanized warfare, this is a no-compromise experience: There are no microtransactions, no shortcuts – just an honest, immersive journey through one of history’s most dramatic military campaigns.

With full support for single-player, co-op, and PvP gameplay, and a strong focus on meaningful progression, Call to Arms: Panzer Elite sets out to redefine tactical gaming in a World War II setting.

Call to Arms: Panzer Elite is currently in development for PC and is targeting an Early Access release this summer on Steam. The development of Call to Arms: Panzer Elite is being supported by the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy on the basis of a decision by the German Bundestag.

    sherman-commander“We’re going to rip out their living goddamned guts and use them to grease the treads of our tanks”

    Sherman Commander lets you put general Patton’s words into action

    Sherman Commander is the latest offering in the simulation genre that has just been announced by Iron Wolf Studio S.A. In this tactical tank simulation, the player will take the role of a Sherman tank platoon commander and lead his men across the most famous World War II theatres of operation.

    Sherman Commander will bring a whole new perspective on realism in tactical armored warfare simulation, presenting the tank as a slow, lumbering war machine that required the effort of the entire crew to operate. The player will lead his forces from the commander’s seat, with a realistic first-person view through optical sights in the commander’s cupola, as well as from the tactical map.

    Watch gameplay trailer for Sherman Commander

    The game will put a lot of emphasis on the primary role of the Sherman tank, i.e. infantry support. Therefore, the player will often assist and cooperate with various infantry units to achieve tactical advantage in battle. Game mechanics will put emphasis on the most crucial aspects of fire and maneuver tactics, such as reconnaissance, suppression fire, soft and hard cover, morale, flanking, and more.

    Sherman Commander will also feature tank duels against more heavily armored and harder-hitting enemy vehicles. Being the underdog in those match-ups will require a thoughtful approach, as each mistake may and will have dire consequences.

    Sherman Commander will feature various battlefields and combat situations across many theatres, and will pit the player against a dynamic AI that will attempt to outmaneuver and put them on the defensive. A sweeping campaign mode will take the player from the sands of Africa to the cobblestones of German cities, forging and testing their commanding skills in the heat of battle.

    More information about Sherman Commander is available on the games official Steam page.

    New cataclysmic Battle Path brings landmark campaign, tanks, camouflage, and more!

    A new era of devastation has arrived in modern tank shooter Armored Warfare! The Enigma’s Legacy Battle Path is now live, bringing a campaign that promises to give tank commanders their greatest battle to date. Following the defeat of the powerful and mysterious Enigma Corporation, victory celebrations have been cut short by the sudden eruption of a massive supervolcano! In this latest Battle Path, Commanders will have to rekindle old alliances and race to find shelter if they want to survive this global disaster.

    Enigma’s Legacy sees players facing the eve of a ‘volcanic winter.’ They will have to fight to prove their strength, negotiate with former enemies to capture as many resources as possible, and obtain the coordinates of the fallen Enigma Corporation’s last shelter as the end of the world looms. The three-month event is packed with earnable rewards including gold, accelerators, premium time, unique camouflage and equipment and, top of the line Asian-manufactured tanks for commanders to collect and deploy in a new theatre of war!

    The Enigma’s Legacy Battle Path features:

    New Asian Tanks and Equipment
    The Enigma’s Legacy Battle Path features an impressive number of high-end, Asian-manufactured tanks and armored fighting vehicles for Commanders to unlock, customize, and deploy:

    • Type 74: A testament to Japanese design and ingenuity, the Type 74 provides good firepower and mobility, making it the perfect entry level addition to the Enigma’s Legacy campaign.
    • Seon’gun – 915 MBT: Unlocked at Level 10, this North Korean powerhouse is a practical, universal MBT with adequate armor and good mobility that will get players where they need to be, and strike the most effective blows on the battlefield.
    • SBS Pindad: Unlocked at level 30, this Indonesian medium-range fire support vehicle that will require very careful gameplay and planning. In certain situations, it has the potential to be absolutely brutal, but playing it in the ‘traditional’ AFV manner, or even rushing to meet the enemy head on, will lead to its quick demise.
    • Type 10 Hitomaru: Unlocked at level 40, this tank is suitable for skilled players who enjoy aggressive, fast gameplay and strive to quickly achieve battlefield dominance. As matches drag on the vehicle will lose its protection, but skilled players who can effectively balance risk and situational awareness will be able to deliver devastating punches with this little devil.

Its Bushmaster Mk. 44 autocannon fires 500 rounds per minute, and it also has a dual rocket launcher.
