[p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]In preparation for the upcoming public multiplayer stress-test, take a look at the latest update of the closed testing - Night Operations. Featuring night vision devices (PVS-14) and tactical modules for the weapons, including laser sights and lights (WIP).

While the day-night cycle is a major part of the Operation game mode featured on the Battle of Izium and future Operation maps, a brand new dedicated game mode was implemented to highlight special forces gameplay. Instead of contesting for the strategic objectives, in Night Operations, you experience a raid-like gameplay: spawning in an infiltration position with your squad, proceeding to task execution, then exfiltrating. Tasks are featured in the new dedicated tab in the inventory and could be received either from Vendors on the HQ or from the game mode and the map context.[/p][p]Tasks are also featured in the Operation game mode to introduce more narrative and operational variety to the gameplay on the large maps.

The team is working to deliver all these stunning features within the public multiplayer stress-test soon, so follow the upcoming updates.

By the way, we also updated the gameplay trailer and uploaded some new screenshots on the Steam page, so check that out as well![/p]

We're thrilled to announce that Glory to the Heroes will be available as Early Access in Q4 2025! Dive into the action of true modern warfare and help shape the game's future with your feedback.

Happy New Year!
We are excited to share a glimpse of the new Public Demo V 0.0.9.3 coming publicly free later in January, showcasing the operation of Marine forces in Krynky (2023-2024), and focused on Infantry gameplay.

Playing as a Ukrainian Marine, embark into boats and reach the left bank of the Dnipro river under the attack of enemy FPVs in an attempt to secure staging areas in Krynky.

A significant amount of gameplay and performance improvements have been implemented within this update & tons of new mechanics were developed to accurately highlight the major outstanding aspects of this operation.

This Demo features "Infantry Skirmish" game mode, which is unlike the "Assault Operation" seen in Izium takes the main focus on the Infantry gameplay. While no usable fighting vehicles are presented, squads of Ukrainian Marines face ruthless enemy artillery and the TOS-1a system, which offers no other choices except hiding in the basements for cover.
