About Call to Arms - Gates of Hell: Ostfront

Call to Arms - Gates of Hell: Ostfront chases the kind of realism strategy fans have long asked for. There are no health bars, no simplifications, and no shortcuts, just historically accurate visuals and locations designed to deliver an unusually authentic take on WWII real-time strategy and tactics. If you have ever wanted to recreate the battles you read about in books or saw in documentaries, this is a platform built to let you do exactly that.

The game centres on the Eastern Front and the Great Patriotic War fought between the USSR and Germany, carrying you from June 1941 through to the war's end in May 1945 and depicting how both armies and their technology evolved across the most devastating conflict in human history. Its maps and locations were painstakingly reconstructed from WWII documents, satellite data, and period reconnaissance photography, and its single-player missions draw on real battle reports and veterans' accounts for authenticity.

Alongside the strategic view, direct third person control lets you step into the action yourself, closing the gap between commander and soldier. For PC players who value historical immersion above all else, this indie strategy and simulation title aims to be as legitimate a portrayal of the war as the genre offers.
