It's one thing for a historic simulation game to be accurate, but Destructive Creations' describes their new World War II strategy game War Mongrels as "brutally accurate". In War Mongrels you play as a group of fugitives that have defected from the Third Reich and must now survive the ordeals on the Eastern Front of World War II. Destructive Creations wanted everything to be as historically accurate as possible by referencing many historical sources and even verifying events with history consultants Michal Flont and Jack Cuccurullo.

War Mongrels is now available via Steam and the Epic Game Store for $44.99 with a console version coming soon.

Brutally Accurate World War II Strategy Game War Mongrels Now Available on Steam, Epic Game Store
 
Gliwice, Poland — 19, October 2021 — War Mongrels, an authentic isometric real-time tactics game from Destructive Creations, storms onto PC via Steam and the Epic Game Store today. 
 
Following a defection from the Third Reich, a group of disillusioned fugitives struggles to survive the brutal ordeals on the Eastern Front of World War II. As they sneak through the war-torn territory, they have to face an evil that challenges not only their values and ideals but all of humanity.
 
War Mongrels mixes dynamic, tactical elements, adventure, and stealth, tightly packing it all into a dark, fascinating story.
 
  • Guide the squad as they break from the Third Reich’s forces and get to know your companions. Each character has their own personality, background, and skills to use along the journey.
  • Use the interactive environment to your advantage, utilizing distraction tactics by whistling, playing music boxes, or throwing objects before progressing through enemy lines, guard barracks, prison blocks, as well as concentration camps and mass graves that stand as a testament to the horrific cost of war.
  • Catch soldiers unaware, ambushing them from the shadows with strategic flanks and an array of character skills or rush in guns blazing, utilizing twin-stick shooter controls as bullets fly across the battlefield.
  • Plan your attacks by pausing the action and issuing orders to each squad member, allowing for tactical assaults when the enemy least expects them.
  • Join forces with a friend in an online co-op mode.
Discover an oft-untold side of World War II throughout War Mongrels’ harrowing campaign. Accompanying the visceral action are animated cutscenes expanding the story, inspired by real-world accounts from war survivors and historians. By striving for authenticity from uniform details, regional terrain, news articles, and everything in between, developer Destructive Creations aims to shine a light on aspects of World War II that rarely make the history books. All content in War Mongrels underwent careful and thorough examination, referencing a wide range of historical sources, with verification by history consultants Michal Flont and Jack Cuccurullo.
 
War Mongrels is now available on PC via Steam and the Epic Game Store for $44.99/€37.99, with console versions to follow. War Mongrels supports English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, Russian, Turkish, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese (Traditional and Simplified) language subtitles at launch with full English voiceover.
