Publisher Kalypso Media and Developer Kite Games have today announced that Sudden Strike 5, their upcoming Real-Time Strategy WWII game and latest installment in the Sudden Strike series, will have a playable demo during the Steam Next Fest from today, February 23rd, up until March 2nd. This comes following a successful Closed Beta period last year and nearly a decade since the previous game, Sudden Strike 4, released in 2017.

Generals, prepare to fall in line and command the forces of two out of the three factions across two specially selected missions, “Attack on Monte Cassino” (Western Allies) and “Defence of Sevastopol” (Soviets) – the final game will also include the ability to play as the Axis forces. These two missions are just a taste of the full game, which will include a massive 25-missions across the three faction campaigns, ranging from icy tundra to the blistering heat of Northern Africa. At launch, the full game will feature 25 missions, multiplayer modes, along with additional balancing, and improvements not present in this demo.

Check out the demo for Sudden Strike 5 now, exclusively on Steam Next Fest until March 2nd. The team at Kalypso will be showcasing the demo live at 4 pm BST on the Kalypso Media YouTube channel, and if you missed the AMA past week, highlights of the Q&A from Kite Games are available on Steam.

The full game will launch later this year across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation®5, and will bring with it more than 300 unique units and even more tactical possibilities.
