M2H has announced that WWI: Isonzo Italian Front is coming to PS5, PS4, PC, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One in 2021, expanding on the previously released Verdun and Tannenberg.
Taking place on the southern front of the Great War, Isonzo looks to immerse players in the epic clash between the Kingdom of Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The game is inspired by the battle for the Insonzo river, which raged for two years, and sees players battling across new battlefields and are ‘beautiful but deadly in equal measure.’
WWI Isonzo Italian Front will see you engaging in fierce battles in scenic peaks, rugged valleys and idyllic towns across north Italy, and can take part in the new Offensive game mode, which puts you in the midst of key historical battles on the Italian Front.
Matt Hergaarden, co-founder of M2H, commented:
The Italian Front was the perfect opportunity for us to elevate the WW1 Game Series, both figuratively and literally! Alpine warfare in Isonzo brings lots of fresh game mechanics to the series, along with the all new Italian army, facing off against Austria-Hungary. We can’t wait to share more of what we’ve been working on – there are many exciting reveals on the way!
WWI Isonzo Italian Front will offer accurately modelled weapons, uniforms and sound effects to add to player immersion within the WWI backdrop, with the development team looking to numerous historical sources including films and diaries to photographs to recreate details such as trench designs to landmarks within the game environments.
