22 June 2011

Tripwire has announced that Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad will launch around the globe on 30 August 2011. The game will be available worldwide through Steam and other digital outlets, as well as in retail stores. The recommended retail price is US$39.99 (±R270) for the USA, with appropriate local pricing for other territories.

Tripwire Interactive has also announced the selection of PunkBuster Anti-Cheat software and PBBans streaming ban support for the game. “With the selection of PunkBuster and PBBans in addition to VAC we’re taking a three pronged approach to cheat protection for Red Orchestra 2,” said John Gibson, Tripwire Interactive President. “We hope this sends a strong message to gamers that we take cheating very seriously and are tackling it head on before the game ships.”

Red Orchestra 2 promises “unique and innovative gameplay” including first person cover, first person tank warfare, all new multiplayer gametypes including the multiplayer campaign mode, and weaponry systems with features such as full ballistics and suppression of enemies. Red Orchestra 2 also gives players the opportunity to fight through both the German attacks into the Russian city of Stalingrad and the Red Army’s crushing reply in single player.
