From publisher Gaming Company and developer Pixelated Milk comes WARSAW, a tactical story-drive WWII RPG set during the Warsaw Uprising.
The launch of WARSAW on October 2 comes on the 75th anniversary of the conflict’s tragic conclusion. With the game’s launch a new trailer is available that focuses on the intense gameplay. Additionally the trailer highlights the real people at the heart of this powerful moment in Polish history.
In the game players take on the lead of the Polish underground resistance and their brave fight against the Nazi oppressors in control of the city in 1944. Players will need to recruit, develop, and manage their fighters as they are taken into turn-based battle through an immersive urban warfare experience inspired by real events.
From encountering patrols to aiding citizens players are challenged. Tough decisions lie ahead for players that will affect the resistance’s effort permanently. And players must remember that death is permanent for those lost in battle and impacts their loved ones and the morale of the resistance.
With WARSAW, we wanted to create a game that is both culturally significant and great to play, and we hope that we’ve delivered that. We took great care with our story and mechanics to provide the best possible experience for players and to ensure we do our history justice.
Gaming Company producer Krzysztof Paplinski
