You can find the rundown (via the official website) below:
TO THE FRONT!
Lead your squad of soldiers in large-scale combat, with infantry, armored vehicles and aircraft fighting together on the most famous battlefields of World War II.SCALE
There are hundreds of soldiers, armoured vehicles and aircraft in every battle, reflecting the scale of historical battles such as the landing at Omaha Beach etc.REALISM
The game gives a feeling of participating in a real military battle, re-creates the atmosphere of the Second World War and is careful with details.VARIETY
In the same battle you can clear a trench with a flamethrower, play as a mortar gunner, break through defenses in a tank and cover allies from the air in an aircraft.CAMPAIGNS
Every campaign is a new experience!
Opposing nations, as well as the available squads, weaponry, equipment, armoured vehicles and aircraft correspond to what has actually been presented in this war theatre scenario, so that each campaign, for example the defence of Moscow in 1941-1942 or storming of the Reich Chancellery in 1945 – offers a unique gaming experience.SQUADS
Your personal army
Each squad consists of several soldiers who can be trained, equipped with new weapons and items and then taken into battle. You control one soldier personally while others will be handled by AI and obey your orders. You can switch between soldiers and stay in the most interesting point in a battle even after some of your soldiers are defeated.VEHICLES AND WEAPONS
In addition to infantry units there is also an extensive collection of ground vehicles and aircraft that look and feel the same in battle as they did in reality. During work on the vehicles in the game, development used their experience with the military online simulator War Thunder.
Enlisted is in closed beta for Windows PC (via the official website), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X.
