Reviews

“The battles that follow aren’t typical of most first-person action games.”
Warfare History Network

“an incredibly fun and long lasting game for any war gamer or history buff. ... you’ll still be playing this months, or even years, from now.”
8.4/10 – Game Chronicles

“it’s remarkably compulsive. The concept and the individual challenges are unique, and the sheer difficulty of it makes riding a tank for 20 miles peculiarly rewarding. ... there’s nothing else quite like it.”
4/5 – Games Radar

About This Game

WWII Online delivers a massive, persistent free-to-play WWII campaign where players—not scripts—decide the outcome. Take on Army, Air, or Naval roles and earn Victory Points and rank to unlock more units. Join a Squad to form the core of the frontline or serve in High Command to direct the war. Since 2001, WWII Online has set three Guinness World Records for scale, authenticity, and player-driven combat, cementing its legacy in gaming history.

KEY REASONS YOU SHOULD PLAY WWII ONLINE

  • Earn Victory Points by supporting the battlefield and unlock premium units through gameplay.

  • A massive, persistent world where the war never resets—your actions have lasting impact.

  • Player-driven campaign where real people decide attacks, defenses, and overall strategy.

  • True combined-arms warfare: Infantry, tanks, aircraft, naval forces, and support roles.

  • No matchmaking or tiny maps—fight across one enormous 300,000 km² battlefield.

  • Authentic WWII ballistics, vehicle performance, and long-range engagements.

  • Join Squads that coordinate operations and form the backbone of each side’s war effort.

  • High Command system allows players to lead, plan offensives, and manage the frontline.

  • Community-driven with veteran mentors, teamwork-first culture, and long-term dedication.

  • A historic title with three Guinness World Records for scale, realism, and player-driven combat.

FAIR GAMEPLAY FOR ALL - THE END OF PAY-TO-WIN

  • UNLOCK POWER WITH VICTORY POINTS (VP): Free Players are no longer limited. Earn VP (for free) through high-value, supportive gameplay—like defending capture points, deploying mobile spawns, driving supply trucks and more.

  • ACCESS PREMIUM GEAR: Spend your earned VP to unlock and use subscription-locked, higher-tier equipment from all periods of the war. Play wisely and return it to base with your crew members alive and the vehicle in good health (no major vehicle damage, like tank tracks or wings broken) and your VP will be returned to your in-game digital wallet.

SIMULATION-GRADE ACCURACY

This is a serious simulation, not an arcade shooter. Experience SERIOUS HISTORICAL ACCURACY with highly detailed damage models. Every shot triggers multiple calculations for angle, speed, armor penetration, and internal component damage. Your knowledge, skill, and strategic placement are all that stand between you and a disabling hit.

Are you ready to join the war that has been raging for over two decades and know that your individual service will be a factor in the final outcome?

ALL-OUT WAR ON A MASSIVE SCALE

  • MASSIVE COMBINED ARMS: Seamlessly fight across land, sea, and air in a 300,000 sq. km perpetual war zone.

  • DYNAMIC CAMPAIGN TIERS: The war progresses chronologically (T0 to T3), with new, historically accurate equipment constantly being introduced.

COMBAT COHESION: THE POWER OF SQUADS

WWII Online is won by flawless team execution. Your squad is a single, lethal unit, and Integrated Voice Comms (IVC) is its lifeblood. IVC provides the instant, dedicated radio channels required to coordinate complex maneuvers, allowing tank crews to call fire, pilots to warn of enemies, and leaders to order crucial flanks. This real-time coordination is the only way to successfully deploy critical assets like Mobile Spawn Points (MSPs) and deliver assets where the battle is hottest. Communication is your true weapon; cohesion is your only victory.

24+ YEARS OF WAR: THE FREE, EVOLVING BATTLEFIELD

We are player-funded and dedicated to perpetual innovation. Launched in 2001, WWII Online is a living project that never stops growing. Every major feature, vehicle, and technical overhaul, including our pursuit of a next-gen engine, is delivered to all players absolutely free. We fight for the future of the game every day, ensuring your massive combined arms experience is constantly expanding and improving at no extra cost.
