About This Game

Diary of Corporal Wilson, March 7th, 1945

Somewhere near Remagen, Germany

We’ve just taken the bridge at Remagen – made a breakthrough they never saw coming. Speed was our ally. The day was chill, no snow luckily, but nevertheless our breath was forming clouds in the crisp air. And yet, we took to action, flanked their Pak 40 positions with our Shermans, locked down the east bank with a barrage by 75mm M1 Howitzer and pushed forward before they could react.

The whole thing was wired to blow – but we moved too fast. They didn’t have time. This wasn’t about firepower, but timing. Planning. Discipline. Every move counted, and we made it to the other side! This could well be the beginning of the end for this gruesome war.

Sudden Strike 5 delivers real-time tactics in epic WWII battles. A host of tactical options and more than 300 playable units open-up multiple approaches to reach your objectives in a 25 mission campaign on historical battlefields in Europe and North Africa.

Timing is key, seize opportunities like capturing strategic locations to gain access to reinforcements or destroying bridges to cut-off enemy movement. Outsmart your enemies while managing supplies, and make sure you are in the right place at the right time to turn the tide of battle.

Choose your tactics wisely – we’ll meet you in the trenches!
