Get ready to rock! The Ascent event is live until April 24th.
[previewyoutube=fD24Zcn52z8;full][/previewyoutube]
As you can see from the trailer, Isonzo has come a long way in the years since it was first released. The Ascent mode is a highlight for sure, but we're still not done yet!
For the Italian mountaineers, climbing is freeform as long as you stay within the boundaries of the combat zone, and use common sense to avoid overly steep overhangs. No yellow paint to mark the only route here! On your way up, consider establishing your own 'via ferrata' - this means a protected climbing route, generally including steel fixtures such as handholds or cables to make climbing safer or easier. Nothing is going to make this climb significantly safer, but if leading climbers can place pitons with ropes as they go it will greatly speed up other soldiers following along the same route. Your allies will thank you for it!
Things aren't quite as easy for the Austro-Hungarian defenders as you might think. Limited room to maneuver means you need to keep your wits about you to avoid getting picked off by Italian rifle fire or stabbed at close range by an Alpini who snuck up onto your ledge. Those ice picks are wickedly sharp. Read more about the Ascent mode on last week's blog.
Thick wool coats, wicker wrapped footwear, ski suits and hoods - there's a lot of stand out items in our latest cosmetic DLC pack! Just the thing for combat on Marmolada - whether you're scaling cliff faces in Ascent or engaging in close combat through the frozen tunnels of the Ice City! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2719540
Remember, Ascent is live for two weeks until April 24th. Good luck out there, you'll need it...
We'll see you on the cliff face, soldiers.

Jump into Isonzo and either assault or defend the sheer rockface of the Marmolada mountain. 16 brave Italian mountaineers attempt to scale the Marmolada mountain on a new map, while 16 Austro-Hungarian defenders do their best to stop them.

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:
