The new map in upcoming free expansion for WW1 multiplayer FPS Verdun has been revealed - it will be a forest map inspired by the Battle of St Mihiel in 1918, and earlier fighting at Bois-le-Prêtre in the first years of the war!
Expect areas of the forest to be reduced to trench lines and tree stumps by shellfire, while other parts have more impromptu sandbag positions amongst the foliage. These images give a good taste of what to expect.
When it releases later this month, the Verdun expansion will also feature a new squad and a brand new 64 player game mode!
Ooh and for those that missed the squad news.. See here a French Assualt squad - the Senegalese Tirailleurs!
Very glad to see the colonial troops come in. Now i'm dying to see the Indians and North Africans as well. I also wish you guys would add more actual Verdun maps, like perhaps le Mort Homme, considering the game is called Verdun ;P
Commitment and dedication to this game by the developers is crazy!
