About The Great War: Western Front™

The Great War: Western Front is a WW1 strategy game that puts you in charge of the pivotal Western Front from 1914 to 1919. Combining real-time tactical battles with turn-based strategic planning, it lets you play a deciding role in history. You pick your faction, lead your forces, and make high-level decisions that ripple across the whole campaign, all with the goal of thinking like a commander to either relive history or rewrite it entirely.

The standout feature is its dual-role command structure. As Theatre Commander, you engage in turn-based grand strategy, directing the deployment of forces, conducting research, and carefully spreading your resources across a front won by inches. As Field Commander, you drop into dynamic real-time battles, directing units, building trenches, and sending infantry over the top in direct assaults. You choose your battles and fight them your own way, shaping the course of the war on both scales.

Research plays a central part, letting you develop period technologies such as poison gas and tanks, while your choices carry profound and lasting effects on your success. With no two playthroughs alike, the game offers limitless replayability, as decisions both great and small alter the outcome of the conflict. It's a strategy experience built for PC players who want to command a war from the ground up and the map down.
