Sherman Commander is live!

Commanders!

Today is a proud day, as we can finally say: Sherman Commander is live!

Take over the helm of a sherman tank - it might be a bit claustrophobic at first, but you will come to learn the benefits of its cold but secure steel embrace.

Steam Festival Debrief

[p][/p][p]Commanders! [/p][p]First of all, a huge thank you to everyone who took part in the Steam Festival, which wraps up today. We truly appreciate every single one of you who downloaded the demo, jumped into the battlefield, and shared your thoughts with us. Special thanks to those who submitted Bug Reports - these are incredibly important for us. Because of your feedback, we were able to quickly identify issues and fix them even faster. In fact, there wasn’t a single day during the festival when we didn’t push an updated build with improvements and fixes (not counting weekends).[/p][p]We’ve also addressed several of the most frequently reported tutorial issues. All of them have now been resolved, so if you ran into any problems earlier, they should now be fully sorted out.[/p][p][/p][p]Most importantly, we would like you to know that we are carefully reading your feedback and will soon be making improvements to the game system to allow more focus on tank play. We have a couple of solutions that did not make their way into the demo due to time constraints, but are at the top of our list and will be implemented shortly. [/p][p]First up is the Active Pause button on the 2D map. This will allow those of you who prefer a less hectic approach to take all the time you need to command your units, and then focus only on fighting from your tank. It’s all about giving you more control and flexibility in how you play. [/p][p]Another feature we’ve been revisiting - something we discussed quite a long time ago - is the implementation of a  “Follow me” order. Due to recent feedback, we’ve brought this topic back to the table. The idea is to have your units move together with you in formation, letting you focus solely on tank combat while you lead the assault.[/p][p]And that’s not all! We hear your concerns and we will be refining the system further so that everybody who is interested in WW2 tank combat can enjoy Sherman Commander their own way. Of course, all existing gameplay options will remain intact. If you enjoy the current style of play, nothing will be taken away - the experience you like will stay exactly as it is.[/p][p]We’re also happy to officially confirm the release date: March the 14th. Until then, we’ll continue polishing the game to make it as solid and enjoyable as possible. There’s always room to improve - and we’re doing everything we can to make Sherman Commander the best experience it can be at launch.[/p][p]Once again, thank you for being with us and supporting the game. It truly means a lot.[/p][p][/p][p]See you on the battlefield,
Iron Wolf Studio Team[/p][p]

Release Date Announcement and more

[p]Heyho everyone,

We have great news to share - Sherman Commander
is releasing on Saturday, March 14, bringing its action-packed tactical tank simulation to Steam.

Additionally, we have (fitting as a part of the Steam Next Fest)
a playable demo as well as a gameplay video with the Dev for you!

Here we walk viewers through the game’s core design philosophy, highlighting the blend of first-person tank action and squad-based tactical combat, with a strong emphasis on infantry cooperation and battlefield awareness.[/p][p] [/p][p]The commentary also reflects on feedback gathered during the open playtest and how it directly influenced the game’s evolution, including increased unit autonomy and a stronger focus on leading troops from inside the tank rather than from a tactical map.

Watch the commented gameplay video on Youtube:[/p][p]

Sherman Commander seamlessly blends a fresh take on tank simulation with tactical RTS to deliver a unique mechanized warfare experience unlike any other game before.[/p][p] [/p][p]Take command of the iconic American M4 Sherman tank and embark on an epic war adventure following Allied landings in Europe.[/p][p] [/p][p]Work closely with your tank crew, as well as other armored and infantry units, to fight through some of the most intense battles of the European theater.[/p][p]

Demo Launch

[p]Heyho everyone,

We have something special for you today - our Sherman Commander Demo!

[dynamiclink][/dynamiclink]
The demo gives players an early hands-on look at Sherman Commander’s blend of tactical tank command, real-time battlefield decisions, and crew management.

Taking control of a M4 Sherman tank, players must issue orders, react to changing combat situations, and lead their unit through intense World War II scenarios.[/p][p]To accompany the demo release, we prepared a new action-packed trailer as well, showcasing the game’s explosive combat, tactical depth, and on-the-ground command perspective.

After that, the playtest ends, we're grateful for the recepion and feedback.
