Verdun and Tannenberg WW1 Frontlines Expand With Console Cross-play

WW1 Frontlines expand with console cross-play! Xbox and PlayStation players fight together in Verdun and Tannenberg…

…AND there’s a free weekend!

WW1 shooters Verdun and Tannenberg on Xbox and PlayStation have added cross-play capability and Verdun matches have been expanded to 40 players, meaning this war definitely won’t be over by Christmas. To celebrate, a free weekend is planned on both platforms from December 11-13.

The newly connected Xbox and PlayStation gamers will also enjoy a range of bug fixes and improvements from the update, adjusted bot spawning behavior so they’ll fill up matches more effectively, plus two features perfect for getting the most out of the next gen consoles: an FOV slider and a framerate unlocker.

Cross-play for Xbox and PlayStation

Verdun and Tannenberg fans on Xbox and PlayStation are now able to play together as today’s update brings cross platform matchmaking to the WW1 Game Series on consoles. With 40 player battles in Verdun for the first time alongside the 40 player battles in Tannenberg, there’s plenty of room for console players to find new friends and foes.

As well as bringing all console warriors together, this update also comes with a bunch of bug fixes and gameplay improvements for Xbox players, as well as tweaks to how bots spawn in response to player numbers so that they fill up matches better.

Developer and M2H co-founder Mike Hergaarden says: “This cross-play update makes bigger battles more common as Xbox and PlayStation fans are able to fight together. Along with the other improvements, by implementing features such as the framerate unlock option we’re making clear our commitment to bring console fans an amazing WW1 experience on both current and next gen consoles.”

WW1 Game Series

Starting out on the Western Front with the release of the first authentic WW1 FPS Verdun back in April 2015, and expanding to the Eastern Front with the release of Tannenberg in February 2019, the WW1 Game Series throws players into intense warfare inspired by the chaos and fury of iconic battles from the First World War. With over 1.5 million copies sold, this novel and underserved setting has proven popular with the gaming community!

Players choose from a variety of historically accurate squads and weapons - with more available to unlock through playing the game - before diving into squad-based battles on the mud and blood splattered battlefields of dynamic World War One warfare.

Every game is built on a base of thorough research and receives extensive post-release support bringing new content and challenges for our players. The games in the series are linked, but each one is standalone and provides a different experience, reflecting the nature of the fighting in the many-sided theaters of the war.
