Announcing “Liberation”!

Liberation
Call to Arms - Gates of Hell: Liberation will take you through the most immersive depiction ever made for a RTS game. The single player campaigns focus on four legendary western front units: the “Liberation” campaign has the 2nd Rangers and the 3rd Armored Division on the US side, and “Festung Europa” has 3rd Fallschirmjäger division and 116th Panzer division on the German side.
From scaling the steep cliff at Pointe du Hoc to the armored clash at Cologne cathedral, every detail has been thoroughly recreated. Here’s a few screenies to feast your eyes:

[h2]Development & content[/h2]
For the development of the US faction, we have had (and still have) fantastic support from the historians and passionate volunteers at WW2 Armor in Florida, USA. They have already been instrumental in many ways; the devil is in the detail they say - and thanks to ww2 armor we have every detail covered.

The Liberation DLC adds the US faction and a number of German vehicles to the game. It contains over 150 vehicles, 500 human models, 50 weapons and new unique support units such as burst fire artillery, or the legendary Red Ball Express.
New German vehicles also add to the depth of the game, and the players will be able to enjoy a new Wehrmacht late war doctrine in multiplayer with the new units.
Liberation will include 20 western front multiplayer maps, 25 western front conquest maps, and an incredible assortment of over 500 Western European assets for the editor.
We are making upwards of 50 buildings, hundreds of environment objects and huge improvements to vegetation visuals. It will be the biggest leap in visual quality and the biggest release of fresh new content for the editor in the history of the GEM engine games.

As you will see, the visuals in Liberation are a big leap forward. We have created photorealistic and high quality graphics that will stand the test of time, making the third and first person gameplay experience more immersive than ever before.

[h2]Roadmap[/h2]
We intend to release Liberation as soon as possible, but we haven’t set a date yet. We will keep you posted of course. We can also confirm that when the time comes, we will be releasing free Content Update 5 alongside Liberation, adding a lot of new units to the base game and raising the quality of the visuals of many of the game’s assets to match the new standard as set by the Liberation DLC.

Barring any catastrophic or disrupting events, release will take place later this year.
Our next devblogs will fully list the contents and in some of them we will tell you a bit more about the historical events that are the backstory to our single player campaign.
In the meantime, catch any scoops on our Discord server.
