Hi everyone!
Since we keep getting asked "when, oh when?", we are excited to announce that the release of the free DLC Ukrainian Warfare: Gostomel Heroes – Battle Unfinished is scheduled for August 25, 2026.
This free expansion introduces a new "Skirmish" mode, where you can face off against AI on 8 different maps (6 familiar locations from the original Gostomel Heroes game and 2 custom-built large maps: "Gostomel" and "Bucha").
A key feature of this mode is the ability to train and carry over your army between battles, including transferring units after completing the main game's campaign. We'll share more details about this mechanic very soon.
But that’s not all! Alongside the expansion, we are releasing a major patch for the base game. Key highlights include:
Added Polish, Portuguese, and Spanish localizations.
Independent voiceover language selection for any text localization (English or Russian). Many international players requested the option to keep Russian voiceover while reading text in their native language—now you can!
Major graphics engine upgrade featuring dynamic lighting sources.
Multi-core CPU optimization (most noticeable when running the game alongside other resource-heavy background processes).
Significant improvements to infantry squad controls, including dynamic formation changes based on surroundings. Infantry will now stick to walls, take cover behind vehicles, etc.
New animations for exhausted soldiers. When in an "Depleted" state, soldiers won't just move much slower—their movement animation will change dynamically to reflect it.
Added basic Steam Deck support.
