Close Combat 4 Details

Date: May 13th

The fourth product in this award winning series adds a new strategic level of play to complement the real-time action. Play single battles, operations, or wage full campaigns as either the Axis or the Allies during one of the most pivotal and epic conflicts of World War Two: The Battle of the Bulge. Game features include:

  • New Strategic Layer shows how tactical successes and failures will have a direct impact on the overall campaign by adjusting access to supplies, reinforcements and replacement forces. This is a major improvement over previous titles; players now have greater control over their battle objectives, as well as a better understanding of the context in which individual battles take place.

  • Players can deploy aerial forces for either bombing attacks or close air support. Attacks will feature detailed plane animation sequences and special effects.

  • Improved visual and sound effects help bring the battlefield to life

  • German infiltration units that mimic American, British and Russian troops and sabotage enemy equipment and supplies.
