DevBlog 39: New 2v2 Map and more!
[h2] News: New Operation Eagle 2v2 Map “Beachfront Stronghold”![/h2]
This coastal fortress is the first line of defense against invaders from the sea. Gaining control over this war-torn area with its fresh wounds from previous battles is a big challenge, but vital for victory.
You’ll notice on the minimap one player from each team controls a forward AA, watching the skies for those early forays.
This new map is available to all players with the Operation Eagle DLC. If you don’t own the Add-on, you can still play it via ranked and multiplayer as well as skirmish mode if another play who owns Operation Eagle hosts the game.
[h2] Info: Standalone Now Upgradeable[/h2]
For those of you not quite ready to bite the Iron Harvest bullet, you now have a cheaper point of entry.
Operation Eagle Is Now Available Standalone For €19,99 here on Steam

To play Usonian on GoG and Epic Games Store, you will need to already own the base Iron Harvest game when you buy Operation Eagle[h2] Info: New Publisher[/h2]
“O.K. so this past year was a challenge for everyone, but we released Iron Harvest together with DeepSilver and thanks to their support, we’ve been able to develop dozens of patches, new maps and even a big addon for you.
And you – the community – are just as incredible as you’ve always been since the Kickstarter days, and it has been a great privilege to meet so many of you on the events all over the world. Having no Gamescom, PAX or other events this year is another gut punch.
We long for the day we can meet you guys and gals at a gaming event, but the future is still bright. The same team that has worked on Iron Harvest on the publisher side has been added to “Prime Matter”, a newly created premium publishing label, with Iron Harvest as one of its legacy games.
While the team remains the same, it’s exciting to start something new and grow in a different direction. We’re working hard on the console versions, to finally get the Kickstarter physical assets to Germany to ship it to you and we can't wait to show you more, all under the new black and red (Rusviet?) flag of Prime Matter!” - Julian Strzoda (Iron Harvest Producer)
