Preview Days of War Will Feature 100-Player Battle Events

The WWII multiplayer shooter is available on Steam Early Access now.

Developer Driven Arts has released WWII multiplayer shooter Days of War on Steam Early Access, announcing the introduction of 100-player battles on the game’s Omaha Beach map.

Driven Arts notes the feature in still in development and is not in the base game yet but the first 100-player battle weekend event will run from February 3 to 5. Further details can be found at the game’s Steam Hub.



“We love tight competitive gameplay more than anyone, but World War II was defined by its massive battles and invasions, and we want to bring that experience to Days of War with 100-player combat,” explained lead designer Lee Snodgrass.



According to Driven Arts these 100-player battles will initially be offered as scheduled events so the team “can fine-tune the details and performance.” When the team is content everything works the server cap will be raised from 32 to 100 so players can host their own 100-player matches.



Days of War is a class-based multiplayer shooter inspired by WWII shooters of the 2000s, with Driven Arts namechecking the likes of Day of Defeat, Medal of Honor, Call of Duty 2, and Wolfenstein Enemy Territory as key inspiration.
