The wonderful feeling of releasing our game worldwide on Steam had one deep flaw - the fact that our game was unavailable in Germany. USK was not allowed to give age rating to any game containing Nazi symbolism - such as swastikas - that our historically-accurate game contained. This policy has changed only recently and games with such symbolism can now be evaluated. We immediately applied for rating, and are now super proud to finally present Attentat 1942 to our friends in Germany!
Were actually the first game released on Steam in Germany containing symbols of Third Reich with the USK rating received after the policy change!
German translation
Furthermore, weve translated the game into German language, so our German-speaking players in Austria and Switzerland, who have been able to access Attentat 1942 in English, can now enjoy the game in their native language along with our new German players!
Thank you for your support!
