Beyond Enemy Lines - Vietnam News

[p]After many years of passionate development, we’re excited to finally share an updated release window for Beyond Enemy Lines – Vietnam. While the game was originally planned for late 2025, we’ve decided to take a bit more time to fully polish the experience and thoughtfully integrate the valuable feedback we received from the demo.
[/p][h3]Beyond Enemy Lines - Vietnam is now targeting an April 2026 release.[/h3][p][/p][p][/p][p]The game is fully playable from start to finish, featuring:[/p]

• [p]An 8-mission story campaign[/p]
• [p]A full cooperative mode, supporting the entire campaign[/p]
• [p]A complete PvP multiplayer suite[/p]
• [p]The in-game Mission & Campaign Editor, allowing players to build and share singleplayer, co-op, and PvP missions directly inside the game[/p]

[p]In January, we begin recording the voice-over for the project - over 65 pages of dialogue, the largest script we’ve ever produced.
For perspective: Beyond Enemy Lines 1 and Beyond Enemy Lines 2 combined, including all DLC missions, never reached 40 pages.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]This reflects how much deeper, more cinematic, and more ambitious Beyond Enemy Lines - Vietnam has become.[/p][p]With the April 2026 release, we will be closing out a development cycle that spans 6 years - the longest and most technologically advanced project in our studio’s history.
Hand-crafted levels, a brand-new engine foundation, expanded mechanics, and a scale far beyond previous entries define this milestone for us.[/p][p]As 2025 comes to an end, we want to thank all of you for your continued support, patience, and enthusiasm. Your feedback and passion have carried this project through every stage of development.[/p][p][/p][p]🎮 Wishlist now and share your feedback!

[p]Soldiers,[/p][p]We’re thrilled to reveal the Sandbox Editor, the powerful User Generated Content (UGC) tool coming to Beyond Enemy Lines – Vietnam.[/p][p]In our latest video, we rebuild the legendary Shipment map in under 10 minutes, set it up for Team Deathmatch, upload it, and host a server – all directly from within the game.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]The Sandbox allows you to create and share your own missions and maps across all platforms. Whether it’s Singleplayer, Co-op, or PvP, you can shape your own experiences and even link multiple missions together into a full custom campaign.[/p][p]🔧 Key Highlights:[/p]

• [p]Create directly in-game – no external SDK or tools needed.[/p]
• [p]Host servers instantly – either peer-to-peer or via dedicated servers.[/p]
• [p]No client downloads required – players can join immediately.[/p]
• [p]Full flexibility – design your own buildings, set mission objectives, add events, and craft custom gameplay logic.[/p]
• [p]Prefab support – speed up map building with pre-made assets or go deep into detail for complete creative freedom.[/p]

[p]The map we built is just a quick demonstration — with more time and care, you can tell your own stories, script unique events, and completely redefine how Beyond Enemy Lines – Vietnam is played.[/p][p]🎮 Wishlist now and share your feedback!

[p][/p][p]Soldiers,[/p][p]Update 0.1.5 for the Beyond Enemy Lines – Vietnam demo is here, and this one’s a big step forward — Co-op Mode has arrived![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]You can now experience the campaign mission “Gridlock” together with a friend. Alongside this major addition, we’ve improved performance, overhauled AI behaviour once again, fixed several bugs, refined multiple UI elements, and upgraded the rendering backend to FSR 4 for better visuals and smoother framerates.[/p][hr][/hr][h3]Co-op Test[/h3][p]This is our first public Co-op test.
We’re opening it early because the single-player demo provided us with incredibly valuable feedback — and we want to continue that process together with you.[/p][p]Please keep in mind that this version is still experimental. Co-op will continue to evolve as we expand testing and gather your input.[/p][hr][/hr][h3]Known Issues & Limitations[/h3]

• [p]Peer-to-Peer Only (for now):
  Dedicated servers are not yet available for the demo. This version runs entirely on peer-to-peer connections, which may cause higher latency and occasional lag. Dedicated server testing will follow soon.[/p]
• [p]Ping Display:
  Since we’re using the Epic Online Subsystem, peer-to-peer sessions currently show a 0 ms ping in the server browser. This is a known limitation and does not represent the real connection quality. We recommend testing Co-op with friends for now.[/p]
• [p]Host Cursor Bug:
  There’s a known issue where the host’s mouse cursor may disappear after a short time in the lobby. You can still use the keyboard or controller to navigate as a workaround.[/p]

[hr][/hr][h3]Other Improvements[/h3]

• [p]Improved overall performance and frame stability[/p]
• [p]Enhanced AI responsiveness and positioning[/p]
• [p]Fixed multiple minor bugs and glitches[/p]
• [p]Polished UI elements and menu flow[/p]
• [p]Upgraded to AMD FSR 4 for higher image quality and better performance across all hardware [/p]

[p][/p][p]Soldiers,[/p][p]Update 0.1.4 for the Beyond Enemy Lines – Vietnam demo is here, bringing major improvements to performance, AI, and gameplay features.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][hr][/hr][h3]Changelog[/h3]

• [p]Improved Performance – Optimizations across the board for smoother gameplay.[/p]
• [p]Overhauled AI Behaviour & Reaction Time – Enemies respond faster and act more intelligently in combat situations.[/p]
• [p]Updated to Unreal Engine 5.6.0 – Taking advantage of the latest engine improvements.[/p]
• [p]Added Profile Section to Main Menu – Track your progress and stats more easily.[/p]
• [p]Added Weapon Skins – Customize your arsenal with new looks.[/p]
• [p]Added .50cal MG Nests to Operation Game Warden – New defensive positions to spice up engagements.[/p]

[hr][/hr][h3]AI Overhaul[/h3][p]We have drastically updated the AI behaviour. Enemies are now more aggressive, push forward, reposition more often, and actively try to evade you. We would like to hear your feedback on whether the new AI feels closer to what you expect.
Keep in mind: this is still a work in progress – further improvements will follow as we fine-tune their tactics.[/p][hr][/hr][h3]Weapon Skins[/h3][p]Weapon skins have been added as an additional reward.
In the beta, all skins are unlocked for testing purposes – in the final game, they will be earned through player ranks or mission-related rewards.[/p][p]We know skins can be a controversial topic, so here’s our approach:[/p]

• [p]Realistic & Grounded: No flashy, unrealistic skins – only 2D paint with no extra 3D elements or moving parts.[/p]
• [p]Completely Optional: If you don’t like skins, you’ll never encounter them. In multiplayer, you won’t see other players’ skins.[/p]
• [p]Community Input: Alongside realistic camos, we’ve included 4 experimental skins. Let us know if they’re “too much” or still acceptable.
