The entire WWII tactical legacy, rebuilt and ready for your first orders.
Fulqrum Publishing, together with developer Sergey Solomanichev, has confirmed that the free playable demo for Theatre of War: Rearmed is live right now as part of Steam Next Fest, giving commanders the chance to test the unified, remastered collection ahead of its full release on December 9, 2026.
One Collection — Every Front
Theatre of War: Rearmed does something no other release has: it brings the entire series — all four core titles and their expansions — into a single, cohesive package running on the most advanced version of the franchise’s original engine. Included are:
- Theatre of War — plus expansions LEHR and Liberation Belarus
- Theatre of War 2: Africa 1943 — plus Centauro
- Theatre of War 2: Kursk 1943 — plus Battle for Caen
- Theatre of War 3: Korea
That’s over 100 missions spanning Europe, North Africa, the Eastern Front, and Korea — all now standardised, polished, and upgraded to the same technical bar.
What’s in the Demo?
The Steam Next Fest demo offers a substantial slice of the campaign action, including:
- 9 playable missions drawn from across the campaigns
- 2 standalone tactical battles to test your mettle
- Multiple multiplayer maps for competitive and cooperative play
- The refined controls, updated visuals, and improved AI that define the Rearmed experience
A hotfix was deployed just yesterday to smooth out any early kinks — the team is committed to making this the best possible first impression.
Tactical Combat, Deep and Realistic
This isn’t a fast-paced RTS where numbers win wars. Theatre of War: Rearmed is built on unflinching authenticity:
- Ballistics & armour penetration calculated in detail — angle, distance, and shell type matter
- Crew visibility & optics — units see what they can actually see
- Infantry behaviour — they take cover, fall back, and react to threats independently
- Vehicle handling — terrain, slope, and load affect speed and manoeuvrability
- Repair, towing & engineering — damaged tanks can be recovered and fixed in the field
Every title in the collection has been brought up to the same standard — unified controls, a redesigned high-res UI, enhanced lighting and shaders, refined camera behaviour, and a significantly improved AI across infantry, armour, artillery, and aircraft.
More Than a Campaign
- Multiplayer — online and LAN PvP supporting up to 8 players
- Mission generator — endless replayability with procedurally generated scenarios
- Editor & modding support — build your own battles or expand the experience via Steam Workshop
- Steam Achievements, Cloud Saves & Family Sharing
- 9 supported languages — full English audio plus text localisation across all regions
