It’s back to the battlefield with the massive content upgrade for Soldiers: Heroes of World War II - now available to download!

5 new multiplayer modes, 12 new maps and more!
Now available from www.codemasters.com/soldiers

Call in the reinforcements as Codemasters releases a huge content upgrade for Soldiers: Heroes of World War II, the smash hit PC game of the summer.

Expanding Soldiers’ gameplay massively and adding new versus multiplayer combat modes and maps, the content upgrade is now available as a free download from www.codemasters.com/soldiers

In addition to the Deathmatch and King of the Hill combat modes, new team-based multiplayer modes include Assault, Battle Zones and Escort. In Assault one team must hold an area, creating sniping points, laying mines and other defensives while the opposing team must infiltrate and eliminate the opposition.

Take to the battleground in Battle Zones and your team’s objective is to capture strategically placed flag zones to rack up points, which contribute to a final winning total. However, the zones can be retaken so you need to weigh up the benefits of defending a few zones or trying to take them all over, the downside being that you’re spread out.

Alternatively, try safeguarding a convoy of trucks in the Escort multiplayer mode. The defending team, armed with infantry and vehicles, must attempt to get their trucks from one side of the map to the other. However, be prepared because the attacking team, which only has access to infantry units, are tasked with stopping the defenders using a host of sneaky ambush tactics, such as sniping placements, mine laying, and setting up machineguns at choke points.

And if you’re eager to try your tactics in new environments, the upgrade features 12 brand new multiplayer combat maps, including Forest, Island, Trench, Port and Village, new units for Allied, Russian and German troops plus a host of technical and gameplay enhancements (see Notes for details).

Delivering the thrills of a 3D shooter and the depth of a real-time strategy game, steel your nerves for the latest versus multiplayer games with the new Soldiers content upgrade now available from www.codemasters.com/soldiers
