Hello everyone, as we announced on our Discord server last week, we are ready to reveal the planned content of our community update!
As our roadmap states, this is the next one in line and it will be a free update for all players.
We call this the community update because most of these additions were made by request of the community.
So exactly what will be in the update? Let’s have a look.

New game mode

This might be one of the most requested items since we published Call to Arms - Gates of Hell. The new game mode is called “Domination”.

The primary objective of Domination is to deal as much damage to the enemy taking as little as possible in return. For the lovers of the series, it may sound reminiscent of the 'Combat' gamemode, but it's about to get way more interesting. It's a very flexible gamemode which we hope will be exciting for the broad spectrum of players. Whilst it is not strictly necessary to capture key locations on the map like in Assault Zones, both teams have a forward outpost which must be defended at all costs. The outposts can be fortified over time with the use of engineers.

The gamemode will also be quite dynamic, because secondary objectives will be made available as the battle progresses, prompting the player to advance into diverse specified areas. The defensive-style players can choose to ignore the secondary objectives, but fortune favours the brave: The team which completes secondary objectives gets an MP point reward. So, it doesn't bring the team immediately closer to victory, but it could be decisive in the long term.

Moreover, the map zone will expand in either lateral direction as the doctrine tiers become available. This will enable flanking opportunities and new strategies to be used.
During testing and after the public release, we may find ways to further develop the gamemode with your feedback.
We think this mode will make for excellent gameplay and we think you’ll have an absolute blast playing it! We uploaded a tutorial for Domination on YouTube.

New units

We will be adding a number of units. Some of these have been requested by many players. This is what we intend to add:

• Ba-10
• T-28 will receive a revamped new model
• BT-7A
• Sdkfz 250/3
• Sdkfz 250/11
• 28mm Pzb41

New maps

We will add two new MP maps:

• 2v2 Suburbs
• 3v3 factory

And then some

We hope to have finished our manual when we push the update live. This was among the most wanted items for GoH and we hope it will help those that are new to the game.
We have also added Improvements to trench and cover systems, to make it easier and quicker to build cover in the desired direction.

Besides that, we plan to add a platform that allows you to develop formations for infantry squads in conquest.
Last but not least, we have made the existing UI easier to read, and a bit more intuitive.
