Publisher M2H (@M2Hgames) and developer Blackmill Games (@BlackMillGame) confirmed that Piana, the fourth free expansion WW1 FPS for Isonzo, is now available for Xbox Series, Xbox One, PlayStation 5|4, Steam, Epic Store and MAC. Watch the official reveal trailer!

The Piana expansion is a new free update that follows the previous free Caporetto expansion. Players can now also wishlist the Glacial Units Pack which features improvised cold weather visual customization options for Italian and Austro-Hungarian troops.

During the rest of this week, the WW1 Game Series is part of a Focus Entertainment sale: the various editions of Isonzo receive price cuts ranging from 40% to 55%. The DLCs are also included in the sale: the Royal, Elite, Alpine, Reserve and Veteran Units Packs are available for 30% off, and the Expedition Units Pack receives a price cut of 10%. Verdun and Tannenberg are now on sale for an all-time low of 80% off.

A battle of two peaks!

Monte Piana was a high-altitude battle of two peaks which sat close together. The Italian and Austro-Hungarian lines faced each other across a short distance in an uneasy stalemate. This stalemate was broken by a fierce Austro-Hungarian offensive which captured both key plateaus and almost evicted the Italians from the mountain. However, they couldn’t quite finish the job and the Italians planned a bold counterattack — this is where the battle begins in Isonzo.

Historically the Italian offensive failed - they regained some ground but could not fully defeat the Austro-Hungarians. There would be two years following with little movement on Monte Piana. The new map in Isonzo gives players a chance to change history, with a decisive Italian or Austro-Hungarian victory.

A new cold-weather themed cosmetic DLC: Glacial Units

The upcoming Glacial Units Pack is now available to wishlist on Steam, Epic Games and Xbox! It will also be available at release on PlayStation. The pack will contain a series of uniforms for unprepared troops struggling to keep warm or stay concealed in the freezing conditions of the wintery Alps. Finding themselves fighting on Europe's highest peaks in frigid conditions the troops often had to scrape together whatever they could to prepare for the extreme cold. This pack has two sets of mostly improvised uniforms for all classes, a selection of warm headgear, plus mustaches and beards, facial items, and faces. These items are purely cosmetic and do not affect the gameplay in any way.

Get your snow boots ready!

A new special event is on the way for Isonzo! Where Western Front game Verdun has the Christmas Truce every year, and on the Eastern Front with Tannenberg a Wolf Truce challenges players to work together, Isonzo players have yet to enjoy a similar special event. But that will change soon!

Details are being kept carefully under wraps until later this year, but we can reveal that there will be no truce of any kind involved this time… and you’d better make sure to pack your snow gear — the Glacial Units Pack would be an ideal starting point to ensure you look the part!

Isonzo is available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC via Steam and Epic Games Store and MAC.
