Pre-order the game now through our online shop, on Steam, Gamesplanet or Humble Bundle to secure your access to the Beta!
Tomorrow, the 6th of June, we will be celebrating Operation Overlord’s 75th anniversary by letting the players in the Beta access all the units and nations available from Back to War pack. This means you will be able to command eight new divisions, including American, Canadian, British and French divisions (as well as four German divisions), and 350+ units (including some never-before-seen ones) from Steel Division: Normandy 44. You will be able to play with these divisions in the non-stop Beta in exactly the same way as you would with the Steel Division 2 divisions and battlegroups: in Skirmish in solo, multiplayer and coop up to 5v5 players.
This new Update will also feature brand-new, awesome battlefields:
- Orsha East
- Beshankovichy
- Lake Naratch
- Shchedrin
What does the Back to War pack bring?
The Back to War pack will only be available to the players who have pre-order the game and have access to the Beta. At Steel Division 2’s release, this pack will be granted for free to all owners of Steel Division: Normandy 44. It will be a paid DLC for others. So if you haven’t, make sure to get our first Steel Division game - you won’t be disappointed!
With the Back to War pack, you will get four additional nations, eight new divisions, as well as 350+ units, including iconic units such the formidable Königstiger, the powerful Achilles tank destroyer or the Sherman Firefly. These divisions will be tweaked to take into account Steel Division 2’s new tactical gameplay, with the updated 3D models for the units, viewable in all their glory in the Armory. It gets even better: you will also get the chance to play with a number of exclusive units, not featured in our games previously.
