General! Here is top news for this week.

The work on Strategic Mind: Spirit of Liberty continues. The cinematics scripts are already finalized and the operation dialogues are at 70% completion. Some operations are already implemented. Yet, this week we had a bad luck streak with Daniil Lapshin - one of our 3D artists falling ill with Covid-19. We hope he gets better soon and wish Daniil a quick recovery.

Do you think Edmon guessed Monty’s perception of Patton right? Let us know in the comments. Also, we would be happy to hear your thoughts on the Monty vs Patton storyline in general. Did you like the way these personalities are presented in Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom?

On August 5th Strategic Mind: The Pacific and Strategic Mind: Blitzkrieg became available on the PS store. The PS porting and publishing on consoles is done by our partners from Poland - Klabater. Here is a tweet by the Klabater CEO Michał Gembicki:



We hope that the release on PS will be successful. As far as we are concerned the XBOX release will follow at a later date.

Did you watch our latest episode of the Developer's gameplay series? This time it is the Battle of Dunkirk - the 3rd operation of the UK campaign. This is an operation like none the other - since you have to defend against overwhelming German force and allow for the Allied troops' organized evacuation by sea. Watch the latest Dev gameplay episode:

Not all playthroughs are successful on the first run. And our friend Edmon has failed his first attempt at the Battle of Dunkirk on Insurmountable difficulty. It is always better to learn from others' mistakes, so we highly recommend his playthrough. Here is the list of episodes:
