Battalion 1944 - An FPS Merging the Old and the New

Battlefield 1 and Call of Duty: World War II are two of the top first-person-shooters over the past two years which are found on console and pc platforms. There haven't been any recent titles dedicated for the PC community which also revolves around those time period, but that all changes with Battalion 1944. Arriving soon, Gamers.com.mt thinks that this game has quite the potential. 

"Battalion 1944 recaptures the core of classic hardcore shooters and propels WW2 into the next generation of competitive gaming. We are utilizing modern industry technology to create a visceral and heart-thumping multiplayer experience that will be crafted by designers who have grown up playing Counter Strike, Call of Duty 2 and Call of Duty 4 ProMod."

The above is the extremely encouraging comment found in the trailer description. The fact that they mentioned games close to their heart like the aforementioned puts even more validity in the quality of the upcoming game. Developed by Bulkhead Interactive and to be published by Square Enix, it looks to bring core mechanics and gameplay from COD2 and mash them in new maps and updated graphics. This is our favourite part of the game. Perhaps if it emulates a similar career and multiplayer function, then this title could be a home run for the old-timers out there. 

As you may be aware, the past year of local esports has seen the nostalgic presence of COD2 in two of the largest events in the form of the Malta eSports Festival 2017 and the Malta Cyber Series #3. With the old graphics, sparked new competition and tension which is gripping the Maltese community. Yet, for how long can we stay playing a 12 year old game? Battalion 1944 has found itself at the top of the list to continue this legacy under a new name.
