Crete
Foy
We are releasing an update to Day of Infamy today to add two new maps Crete and Foy, new and improved coop and PvP game modes, better optimization, visual improvements, balance changes, and more. Full changelist below:
New Maps
- New map “Crete” formerly “Mercury” by The0rthopaedicsurgeon winner of the DOI mapping contest.
- New work in progress map “Foy”.
New and Improved Modes
- New and improved cooperative modes
- NEW: “Raid”
- In this new mode there are many possible objectives in the area, but three are randomly selected each round. The objectives range from capture points, to assassination targets, to destructible objects such as fuel dumps and artillery batteries. Securing, eliminating, or destroying a target will respawn dead players on your team.
- “Stronghold”
- Stronghold has evolved to take advantage of new types of objectives, such as destructible fuel dumps, artillery batteries and officers to assassinate. The mode has been changed to support any number of active objectives within a particular phase, instead of always being two.
- “Entrenchment”
- Entrenchment has been changed to focus on one defense position at a time instead of two. This increases the intensity of the mode as the enemies focus on attacking a single position.
- NEW: “Raid”
- New and improved limited life multiplayer modes
- NEW: “Firefight”
- Firefight is a highly popular mode from Insurgency which we decided to bring over to Day of Infamy. Teams battle over three objectives and receive reinforcements only after capturing.
- NEW: “Intel”
- Intel is a work in progress single life mode where one team must return found intelligence to their home base while the opposing team attempts to intercept them en-route.
- “Sabotage”
- First introduced in the last update, the mode has seen balance improvements and now utilizes fuel dumps as the first two objectives, with the final objective being an artillery battery. Fuel dumps are easier to destroy than artillery batteries. There are also now restricted areas, to prevent spawn camping.
- NEW: “Firefight”
Performance and Stability Improvements

Experience intense close-quarters battles in iconic WWII settings. Day of Infamy is a teamwork-oriented shooter which aims to be a continuation and evolution of the original Day of Defeat mod released in 2001 - brought to you by the creators of Insurgency.
Strategic Gameplay
Intense core infantry mechanics and a simplified HUD create a highly visceral and immersive experience. With a reinforcement wave system tied to objectives, the game maintains an emphasis on teamwork and coordination.
Iconic WWII Battles
From the shores of Sicily and streets of Italy, to the forests of Belgium and Germany. And of course the Normandy beaches.
Historic Armies
The Allied infantry forces of the British Commonwealth and U.S. Army clash against the German Wehrmacht.
Authentic Arsenal
Depending on your team’s supply, you may customize and upgrade your gear and weaponry, affecting your appearance, weight, stamina, and movement speed. The game contains a full-range arsenal including bolt-action rifles, pistols, revolvers, submachine guns, heavy machine guns, grenades, and flamethrowers. Fix bayonets, extend magazines, or swap iron sights with period-specific customization options.
Teamwork Required
Officers can direct their team in the field. In addition to a wide variety of command options, they may call in fire support if a radio operator is nearby. Fire support options include artillery barrage and smoke screen. Local voice is used to talk to your teammates in the game, but be careful because the enemy can hear you if you’re too close. Radio operators also serve as a communication beacon to those around them, as HQ and radio operator chatter can be heard through them.
Frontline
Both teams are given the objective of pushing through the map. A team wins when all objectives have been captured, or if the time runs out and a team has majority control of the battlefield.
Liberation
To win, your team must capture all territorial objectives to liberate the area. Capturing points will gain your team more reinforcement waves. You will gain more waves by securing points behind enemy lines.
Offensive
The attacking team must capture one point at a time pushing back the entrenched enemy. When objectives are secured by the attacking team, additional waves and time is added to prolong the battle.
Stronghold
Move through enemy held territory and secure the area. Your team will be reinforced each time an objective is secured.
Patrol
Patrol the surrounding area. Be especially careful, as there are no reinforcement waves in this mode. Once your squad has reached its waypoint, you must either return to base or eliminate any discovered enemy forces in the area.
Entrenchment
Defend the line at all costs. Make sure to fall back and regroup occasionally to keep your squad reinforced.
Mod Support
People can create mods for the game that contain all new factions, weapons, and more. With Workshop support you can expect to see custom mods, weapons, player skins, maps, and various other contributions from our talented community. We are very excited to see what the community produces.
Achievements
The game contains a diverse array of achievements for players to feel a sense of progression learning the game’s various mechanics.
