Men of War II | Things are Heating Up with the Next Update


Greetings, Commanders! We hope you enjoyed the Steel Rain update featuring the offline mode and new units for Men of War II. We're thrilled to announce that we're hard at work on the next major update, which is now in the final stages of testing and polishing. Alongside various new features, improvements and bug fixes, this update will bring exciting new content that should provide plenty of warmth in the coming winter months.

Whats Coming in the Next Update:


New Flamethrower Tanks for all three in-game nations:


USSR:
  • T-34-76 M1941 with FOG flamethrowers.
  • OT-34-85
Wehrmacht:
  • Pz.Kpfw. II Flamm Ausf. A "Flamingo".
  • Pz.Kpfw. III (Fl).
USA:
  • M3A1 "Satan".
  • M4A4 "Sherman Crocodile".
  • And more units that will be revealed upon the updates release!

To complement these fire-spewing monsters, new flamethrower battalions will also be introduced for each nation, each offering unique specialization bonuses. Additionally, expect single-use handheld flamethrowers, incendiary devices for German and Soviet factions, and the unique RKKA Ampulomet weapon.

More Than Just Firepower


The update will also introduce a new map, Sandy Path, inspired by the African theater of World War II. The map will be playable in Front Line, Combat, Assault Zones, and Tanks Only modes.

Key Improvements:


  • Modding Tools: A material shader editor will be added, unlocking limitless creative possibilities for modders.
  • Dynamic Grass: Grass will burn, support AO shading, and feature PBR materials. The grass editor will be improved with randomized scaling and positioning, allowing for more diverse and unique landscapes.
  • Realistic Wind Effects: The environment settings will feature 11 levels of wind intensity, creating more lifelike vegetation movement.
  • Firefighting Mechanic: Some vehicles will be equipped with firefighting tools to prevent the loss of valuable units, with a dedicated button added to the battle panel.
  • Visual Upgrades for Burned Units: Infantry units affected by fire will visually display the devastating effects, emphasizing the raw destructive power of flamethrowers.
And as always, please continue telling us what you think about the game - we read every single suggestion, criticism, or any other piece of feedback you provide. Keep doing so either here in the comments, in the Steam discussions, or better yet, join the awesome community on the Men of War II Official Discord server! And if you are enjoying the game and want to support its further development, consider leaving a review here on Steam, or, until December 4, nominate it for the "Better with Friends" category of the Steam Awards - every vote counts! We will see you on the battlefield soon, Commanders!

Experience World War II real-time strategy gameplay like never before! Men of War II, the new chapter in the evolution of the top-rated RTS franchise, brings you an unprecedented number of units with different specializations to command, unyielding attention to historical fidelity, new levels of visual and audio excellence, as well as advanced enemy AI. Lead your troops in intense real-time battles on the Western and Eastern Fronts and overwhelm your opponents in epic narrative single-player campaigns and skirmish modes before diving deep into the multiplayer action.

Utilize sophisticated military strategies, lay ambushes, capture enemy vehicles or weapons, and show your ability as the greatest military leader of all time. Attain full command of different roles: from Artillery and Armor to Infantry and Support. Blast entire buildings to smithereens or construct fortifications to reshape the battlefield - from trenches and dugouts to bunkers and minefields. Use the Direct Control feature to precisely manage any single unit on the field at any time. Dive deep into classical combat mechanics combined with all-new gameplay features and experience the intensity of one of the longest-running series of WWII games in an exciting new way.

Men of War II also boasts a staggering breadth of gameplay options: whether you prefer a realistic take on World War II strategy typical for previous entries in the franchise or enjoy a more casual experience; the captivating stories of narrative campaigns or experimenting with different tactics in ever-changing dynamic modes; challenging other commanders in ranked matches or customizing every detail of each battle in a lobby, Men of War II offers an astounding amount of content to sate your thirst for battle.

Experience epic stories told in three narrative campaigns — lead the desperate Soviet defense against the initial brutal onslaught on the Eastern Front; become a US commander in Normandy, having to improvise with limited resources and adapt to unfamiliar ground, in order to overcome the Nazi war machine; or step into the shoes of an old, disillusioned Wehrmacht officer on the retreat to Berlin, inadvertently delaying the defeat of the regime he himself hates.

Enjoy a more open experience as you take on Historical Campaigns inspired by the Soviet Operation Bagration and the US Operation Overlord with customizable battalion setups and strategies, or the endless possibilities of the fully dynamic Conquest campaign and the skirmish-like Raids, where no two playthroughs are ever the same.

Jump into the biggest and most varied multiplayer mode in franchise history and challenge other players in clashes ranging from 1v1 to 5v5; command a specialized Battalion and find the right synergy with your team-mates; take a more generalist approach with Combined Arms or lead all your nation’s units in the Classic Mode, resembling the Men of War: Assault Squad 2 experience. Take competition to the next level in Match-making and Leagues, tweak a wide range of options in custom Lobbies, or play any part of the single-player content in co-op with up to 4 other players.

From nigh-indestructible tanks, devastating artillery, and nimble airplanes to realistic models of infantry armament and military equipment, Men of War II features the most extensive and highly detailed WWII locations, vehicles, and characters roster in the series to date: three armies, 45 customizable battalions, and close to 400 different units await your commands.

Experience the classical theater of war from a new perspective: every location comes to life with a unique set of fully destructible objects, realistic physics, and immersive sound design. Men of War II takes audio-visual excellence to a new level for the series, with native support for up to 4K resolution and ultra-wide, 21:9 aspect ratio, Physically Based Rendering, and other enhancements. At the same time, the game’s engine takes full advantage of 64-bit, multithreading processing to ensure the best possible optimization and smooth experience even on lower-spec PCs.

Veterans of the series will enjoy the myriad of detailed settings and tweaks available to create a gameplay experience tailored exactly to their liking, with options ranging from turning various UI elements on or off, to the amount of Command Points and Manpower resource available in a match; while others will appreciate the possibility to just jump into a quick match-making battle or use a pre-set roster of units in a mission with no hassle.

Create and share your own war scenarios using a special level design and modding toolset for Men of War II, fully integrated with Steam Workshop. Now the choices are up to you: your creativity; your vision; your skills. The tactical possibilities are endless.
