Press release:
Zurich, Switzerland, March 6, 2026 – Over The Top: WWI, developed by four passionate developers at Flying Squirrel Entertainment and publisher GG Publishing, is out later today on PC via Steam. The game offers over-the-top, massive multi- and single-player fun in the trenches of World War I. Players can choose between the Germans, British, or French, as well as an absurd number of historical weapons and vehicles. The game will feature a time-limited 15% launch discount, lowering the price to 16.27$/€. Afterwards, the game will cost 19.14 $/€.

Over The Top: WWI takes players to twelve historically inspired battlefields reminiscent of the Western Front during World War I. Equipped with an absurd arsenal of deadly weapons, players engage in 100-versus-100 battles as Germans, French, or British soldiers. Numerous rifles, devastating artillery pieces, destructive tanks, and other historical military equipment, such as aircraft and bunkers, are at their disposal for powerful destruction. Players can use the fully destructible environments to their advantage, digging trenches or building defensive positions to help them achieve victory.

Single-player mode offers the same scope of gameplay, allowing players to fight alongside large groups of CPU-controlled units and bring World War I to their screens. The team behind Over The Top: WWI consists of four members, all active participants in historical reenactments; therefore, they place great importance on an authentic representation of the war’s events. Players can look forward to maps, vehicles, and uniforms with remarkable attention to detail.

Key Features

● Epic, large-scale warfare: Up to 200 players or bots simultaneously compete against each other on the battlefield.

● Total Annihilation: The realistic battlefield takes on different forms throughout the game thanks to player-driven destruction. Players will dig trenches, and explosions will tear deep craters into the landscape. The battlefield evolves with the dynamic weather, wind, season, and time-of-day system.

● Various branches of the military: Players can take on 8 entirely different roles in the army, such as Officer, Sniper, or support classes like Engineer.

● Vast selection of weaponry and vehicles: There are over 50 one-of-a-kind weapons, ten different kinds of armored vehicles and tanks, airplanes, machine guns, mortars, cannons, and more.

● Map editor: In addition to 12 handcrafted battlefields, the system allows players to create custom maps and upload them to Steam Workshop.

● Server Tools: Players can host and administrate their own servers, complete with custom maps, rules, and settings.
