Men of War II, sequel to the acclaimed first chapter of the RTS series, was announced during the 2021 Golden Joystick Awards ceremony, with a trailer
During the Golden Joystick Awards 2021 ceremony (here you will find all the winners in the various categories), 1C Entertainment and Best Way have announced Men of War II, the new chapter of the popular RTS franchise. From what we know to today, the title will be released on PC via Steam in the course of 2022 and was conceived after the release of many expansions and spin-offs of the first chapter. The sequel aims to return to the origins of the franchise and aims to redefine real-time strategic gameplay. The new Front Line mechanic is the cornerstone of dynamic and lively confrontations, in which the push and pull of each battle affects the boundaries of the territory. Knowing how to control wars of attrition and break through defenseless lines to advance in the maps under control will allow you to conquer new territories.
The function of Direct Vision has been further improved and will allow you to focus on the single desired unit at any time, to quickly improve, change or repair its equipment. You can level up the theater of war with powerful armor and artillery capable of destroying entire buildings, choosing from an arsenal that includes 45 battalions and more than 300 vehicles, whose designs have all been devoted to historical fidelity. There will be two campaigns in the story, playable both in single player and with a party of up to 5 friends online and in co-op, set on the eastern and western front. Take control of the brave Allied Forces making their way through devastated France, or the Soviets defending their lands from the threat of the Third Reich army.

In addition to the Campaigns, you can explore the depth of the mode multiplayer online and play as the Allies, the Soviets or the Germans. Clash with other players in very varied and diverse clashes and maps, each recreated with the specific goal of being as faithful to history as possible, making each arena authentic and real compared to the historical period. Nikolay Barishnikov, CEO of 1C Entertainment, said about the game:
Men of War 2 places emphasis on the ability to make tactical decisions, engaging campaigns and, most importantly, historical accuracy. We want to give players the most authentic and fun experience possible. With our destructible environments, plethora of units to choose from, and full mod support, would-be commanders can relive WWII in their own way.
