A mini-teaser for the new game mode and some voice chat news!
Alongside a selection of bug fixes and general quality of life improvements for Isonzo, we will soon be improving our voice chat system on PC so that Steam and Epic players will be able to talk together all the better to coordinate your attacks and defenses. At the same time we will be implementing voice chat on consoles for the first time, something we know the community has requested.
A US Army field radio station in 1919. Communication technology has come a long way! It would take 16 key presses to call someone a n00b in morse code.
Historically with the Battle of Verdun the Germans hoped to inflict heavy casualties on the French by taking vital ground and then smashing their counter-attacks. This plan failed, with both sides suffering enormous losses over the course of one of the longest battles in history. In our games, so far the Entente always win the campaigns, so we challenged the community to see if they could give the Central Powers an ahistorical victory, with the potential prize a teaser about the upcoming new Isonzo game mode. The result
Its not so easy to change the course of history. But, if you look at the numbers below youll notice the Central Powers only lost around 7000 more troops during the campaign. In previous campaigns the difference would usually be closer to 40-50,000 more Central Powers casualties.
The final results from the campaign. Its still a good performance, and while you couldnt quite beat our challenge weve still decided to share a very mini-teaser with you:
Its not much, but we know you can be resourceful when it comes to figuring out new game content. And if not - there will be a bigger teaser coming in next weeks blog.

You get an extra blog this week, thanks in part to the tireless efforts of the fighters on the Western and Eastern Fronts in Verdun and Tannenberg. Last weekend we ran one of our multi-front Campaign events where battle casualties for both the Entente and Central Powers are tallied up, with the side taking the least losses winning. The result means that we are sharing a mini-teaser about the upcoming new game mode in Isonzo. But first we have news of a small but significant feature update that will be arriving sooner.
Voice Chat Updates Coming

Battle of Verdun Weekend Campaign

Entente Victory! Again.

You can see part of the combat area of the new map from our most recently released map: Marmolada.
Its not much, but we know you can be resourceful when it comes to figuring out new game content. And if not - there will be a bigger teaser coming in next weeks blog.
See you then, soldiers!

World War One expands to the mountains of the Italian Front - beautiful but deadly in equal measure. Inspired by the two year struggle for control of the Isonzo river valley and the Alps during World War One, Isonzo elevates the WW1 Games Series, figuratively and literally.
From the makers of Verdun and Tannenberg …
The new Offensive game mode puts you right in the middle of key historical offensives on the Italian Front. Lead the charge across stunning Italian landscapes as you choose your path to victory - cut paths through barbed wire, flank your enemies by following mountain trails, or man a mortar to blast a way through. Shape a dynamic battlefield by laying sandbags and wire, placing ammo crates, deploying trench periscopes or sniper shields, and more.
Take part in historical offensives from the Sixth Battle of the Isonzo to the Strafexpedition. Reflecting the course of the actual battles, as the attackers advance the fighting will shift through vastly different landscapes within a single offensive: from hillside fortresses to mountain trenches and fierce urban combat on city streets. Everything is recreated based on research and field trips, from sound effects and uniforms down to the houses, vineyards and trenches you’ll be fighting over.
Call in support with a unique historically accurate flare system: flare guns can mark targets for artillery or biplane flybys, or different colored flares can be used to guide your team. Once the big guns have softened up the enemy, finish the job at close quarters with an Arditi dagger or mountaineer’s pickaxe. Man heavy machine guns, mortars and even mountain guns for more direct fire support.
Choose from six classes based on historical combat roles and build your loadout from a selection of weapons, equipment and perks linked to that class, giving flexibility and variety while staying grounded in what real soldiers might have carried. You’ll be operating wire cutters, bandaging yourself and wounded teammates, and blowing the whistle to start an assault. One shot can kill and even lighter injuries can lead to quickly bleeding out.
Being an effective soldier in Isonzo is not just about being a good marksman. Mastering the terrain is also key - the mountain can be a friend or foe. Learn how to navigate well to maintain cover and surprise your enemies or support your allies.
Finally… watch out for the dreaded poison gas. You’ve never experienced WW1 action quite like this!
Isonzo key features include:
More Games in the Authentic WW1 Game Series
