Rounding up 2024 for Christmas
This year, we introduced Ascent to Isonzo! This limited-time game mode has the Italians scale one of Marmolada's cliffs with their ice picks and rope. The Austro-Hungarians are at the peak and have to defend the objective at all costs, with their limited supplies available. They do have a handy supply of rocks, however! Ascent was playable in April and November and is sure to return in 2025! [previewyoutube=qYpI6wixcfc;full][/previewyoutube]
The Austro-Hungarians push across the river Piave to capture Nervesa della Battaglia and create a foothold across the river. This battle in the region of Treviso takes the fight across water and farms into urban warfare. [previewyoutube=hCzcadGzXcU;full][/previewyoutube]
At an altitude of 3000 meters, Italian forces assault the Austro-Hungarians dug in at Cima Presena. To make matters worse: the battlefield is battered by a blizzard, limiting your sight and making life even more miserable. The Italians have an uphill battle ahead of them, will they pull it off? [previewyoutube=6UgxFOIgB-0;full][/previewyoutube]
The arsenal of Isonzo has been expanded again this year and they sure leave a lasting impression. The Austro-Hungarians receive a captured Mosin-Nagant and a new grenade, the Italians got their hands on Isonzo's very first impact grenade and the Germans got the Artillery Luger, which quickly claimed its spot among the best. Also: rock.
If you're looking to keep warm during the winter, look no further than the Altitude Units Pack! This DLC features many thick coats, cozy hats and goggles to keep your eyes snow-free. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2719540/Isonzo__Altitude_Units_Pack/
If you're looking to dress like you just went to hell and back... to each their own, I guess. Secondly, the Shellshocked Units Pack is what you'll want. It's filled to the bring with worn-down coats, bloody bandages, but also some really cool armor suited for those who are actually planning to go to hell. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2719550/Isonzo__Shellshocked_Units_Pack/
We collaborated with the Movember charity to bring you the Movember Handlebar DLC for Isonzo! Get yourself the epitome of mustaches and support Movember's mission support men's healthcare, taking on prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention. Proceeds will be donated to the not-for-profit Movember organization. The DLC is available until January 2nd, 2025! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3253670/Isonzo__Movember_Handlebar/ [previewyoutube=QnHXS4Me6nI;full][/previewyoutube]
We finally got some merch! As a (kind of late) celebration of the WW1 Game Series' Anniversary, we worked together with Makeship to create a set of three fantastic pins representing each of the games. They already reached over 200% of the funding they needed to enter production, with shipping scheduled for the end of March. They're only available for a limited time, so be sure to check them out! Find them here: https://www.makeship.com/products/ww1-game-series-10-year-anniversary-pins https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1556790/view/4454718003971358771
To celebrate the release of Montello, we organized a digital tour through the region! There's a lot of history here, WW1 and beyond. From the most successful fighter ace of WW1 and his link to Ferrari to the estimated 300,000 teenagers who mustered the Italian front line: if you're interesting in learning about history, be sure to check it out. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1556790/view/4535779621903617205
The Adamello update brought along a Free Weekend on Steam and PlayStation, introducing a ton of new people to the community!
There's still one more big ticket item for Isonzo on the current roadmap and we're very excited to show you next year. However, we have a lot more planned than just that. It's just kind of hard to fit it all on the roadmap at this point. We'll reveal everything in due time!
From the entire BlackMill Games team, we really hope you have a pleasant Christmas and an excellent 2025. The Christmas Truce will return to Verdun next week to wrap up this year, so be sure to join us for a fun and totally not overly competitive snowball fight.

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
Immerse yourself in more WW1 action with our other standalone titles Tannenberg and Verdun. Experience trench warfare on the Western Front in Verdun, or maneuver for control of key sectors in Tannenberg on the Eastern Front. These authentic WW1 shooters let players choose from a range of squads from across the war, as they fight for control of the ever-changing frontlines.

Isonzo key features include:
- Mountain warfare: Assaulting mountain fortifications, battling through ruined towns, and fording rivers are just a few of the challenges you’ll face as you fight your way through numerous enemy positions
- Tactical multiplayer FPS: Choose your role and loadout carefully to survive this high altitude combat - play a sniper to pick off the enemy engineers before they can cut your wire, use rifle grenades to clear enemy machine guns, and much more
- World War One Gameplay: Historical Offensive game mode based on real battles and focused on the unique challenges of Alpine warfare. Fight with 30+ WW1 weapons, poisonous gas attacks, and intense artillery barrages
- Build for victory: Place your own wire, sandbags, trench periscopes, and more! Whether you’re digging in or on the attack, shaping the battlefield to your advantage will be key to victory
- Faces of war: Make every class your own by picking from a variety of historically class-appropriate uniforms, accessories and headgear. As a finishing touch, you can even pick your mustache from several famous period-accurate styles!
- Authentic WW1 atmosphere: Accuracy in everything from maps and weaponry to music and the uniforms – fight for the Kingdom of Italy or the Austro-Hungarian Dual Monarchy
