Digitalmindsoft is working on a sequel to its real-time strategy-y tactical game Men of War: Assault Squad, publisher 1C Company announced today. Assault Squad 2 will bring the usual sequel stuff: better graphics, new modes, more maps, and whatnot. The big list of improvements in the announcement includes "advanced multi-core support, advanced shader technology, interface and AI improvements, as well as added camouflage depending on season/map, fully updated inventory items with new graphics and updated vehicles, sound improvements, Steam multiplayer," and Steam Workshop support. Assault Squad 2 also brings eight-player co-op and 8v8 competitive multiplayer, and single-player skirmishes ranging from "extreme tank combat to deadly sniper stealth missions." Digitalmindsoft had tried to crowdfund a "spiritual successor" to Men of War named Call to Arms, but fell far short of its goal. So here it is, back on MoW, I guess. Men of War: Assault Squad 2 is due to launch on PC between October and December this year.

      i freaking love this series but i really need some full blown campaign stuff and not competitive mp really. the co-op campaign from the previous iterations has been the highlight for me so far.

        This - exactly this. Assault Squad is the only game in the series I've ignored so far because it's been all about competitive play. The main reason I still play the others is because of the campaign co-op.

          Check it out, even though it is all skirmishes, it is still an amazing game, better graphics and ball-busting tough AI.
