Classified: France '44 News

Wednesday, 1st May 2024 – Absolutely Games and Team17 Digital have today launched the Agent Pack for WWII-based strategy epic Classified: France ‘44. Available for PC and next-gen consoles, the Agent Pack grants players new gear for their covert operations, including:

New Special Ops Map – “Radar” Two new Special Ops missions:
• Over Hill Under Hill
• Make Every Kill Count
New Weapon:
• Winchester 1912
New Weapon Variant
• Beretta “Compact”
New Clothing Set
• Female Resistance “Agent”

An original take on the turn-based tactics genre, Classified: France ’44 authentically captures the challenges of World War II firefights, shining a light on a lesser-known story. Players will take charge of the Jedburghs: a group of special forces dropped deep in the heart of Nazi-occupied France, working with the Resistance to disrupt and sabotage enemy forces in the lead-up to D-Day.

The season pass for Classified: France ’44 can be purchased for £19.99/$19.99/€19.99, granting access to all four DLC packs, with the individual DLC packs 1-4 available for £5.99/$5.99/€5.99 each.

Patch Notes - Steam Patch - V.1.01

ATTENTION CAMPERS!

Today we bring you our first PC update to Classified: France ‘44 which is our public 1.01 build. This is to address some of the more frequent issues the community have reported since launch, but we intend to deploy a larger update with substantial fixes, balance changes and more closer to the end of April (subject to change).

We’d like to thank everyone who has been engaging in the forums, on our socials and our Discord for reporting issues and their overall experiences.

NOTE: These changes are not live on console versions, the following changes are scheduled to come to consoles with the 1.02 patch.

[h2]Fixes[/h2]

• User-created mission saves can now be loaded without triggering a DLC missing error.
  
• Enemy units will no longer instantly disappear on death and will now fade out over a few seconds if the new “Corpse Visibility” setting is off.

[h2]New Features[/h2]

• Added new “Corpse Visibility” game option in the settings menu to keep corpses visible and prevent the fading out on death if enabled. Note: Enemies will not react to corpses if “Corpse Visibility” is set to ON.
  

[h2]Known Issues:[/h2]

• The text for the Level 2 Description of the Heavy skill “Bulletstorm” overlaps in French, Italian and German.
  

ATTENTION CAMPERS!

It's an exciting day as we are just a few hours away from Classified: France '44 being fully launched! It's been an exciting journey and we can't wait to see people's reactions and strategies.

Before that though, we have another Dev Diary for your perusal. We sat down with Senior Game Designer, Lee Brimmicombe-Wood, to talk about how the team behind Classified: France '44 brought World War 2 to life and translated the stories of the French Resistance into the game.
