Our historians explain the realistic, historically accurate game and its gameplay in context! Get ready for a memorable journey through WW2… one that’s sure to leave an impact on you.
The game’s campaign is set in the European theatre and is centered around a squad in the 1st Infantry Division following their battles on the Western Front and set mainly in the historical events of Operation Overlord. The player controls Ronald “Red” Daniels, who has squadmates who can supply the player with extra ammunition, health, or grenades as well as a targeted grenade and target spotting.
The developers chose to include atrocities and Nazi extermination camps apparent during this time period in the campaign mode in order to deliver an authentic war story. In certain sections of the game, enemy soldiers in the campaign can be captured, and wounded allies can be dragged to cover.
On June 6, 1944, U.S. Army Private First Class Ronald “Red” Daniels (Brett Zimmerman), of the 1st Infantry Division, takes part in the Normandy landings (D-Day) with his platoon.
