Merry Christmas!

Tannenberg coming to consoles
Next year will see Tannenberg released on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, which we’re hugely excited about. We also just released the Verdun remastered update on PlayStation 4 as a nice early Christmas present!

The Christmas Truce turns seven
It’s the seventh year that we’re running the Verdun Christmas Truce, which is inspired by the true events of the Christmas Truce in 1914. Players will be able to experience this unexpected moment of peace and common humanity amidst the horror and chaos of the First World War. In-between normal matches, players will find themselves on a special Christmas Truce map where they can play football matches, have snowball fights and send Christmas cards from the trenches by email or social media.



There were not such widespread truces on the Eastern Front, but the Christmas spirit was present in places nonetheless. In Galicia, Austrian troops were even ordered not to fire unless forced to. Their Russian adversaries also held their fire. At the fortress of Przemyśl, some Russian troops left Christmas trees in No Man’s Land along with a complimentary note for the defenders. This led to a meeting between the sides, with men reportedly exchanging tobacco and schnapps for bread and meat.
