Six Days in Fallujah Release Date
The Six Days in Fallujah early access release date has been confirmed as June 22, 2023. It will have a full release on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC via Steam at a later date once the PC early access period has concluded sometime in mid to late 2024.
Six Days in Fallujah Early Access Details
Six Days in Fallujah early access on Steam is here and is expected to be in early access for 12 months. So it’s finally time for you and your friends to jump in and experience the harrowing battle for Fallujah. The game is already showing promise to be the most immersive tactical shooter on the market, offering early players a rather unique co-op gaming experience.
Given just how challenging the opposing side is supposed to be, it is strongly recommended that you take a friend with you if not 3! It’s also worth remembering that as more features are added to the game during Early Access, the purchase price will increase accordingly – so it’s certainly worth getting in on day one and enjoying all that additional content for free if you can. Plus Early access has more content on the way, with nighttime missions, weather challenges, and more enemy types set to arrive.
What Is Six Days in Fallujah About?
Six Days in Fallujah is a first-person tactical squad-based shooter but it’s one that strives for authenticity more than anything else. Following the plight of a squad of U.S. Marines from 3rd Battalion, 1st Marines, Six Days in Fallujah thrusts players into the real-life bloody Second Battle of Fallujah and unfurls its narrative across six, gut-wrenching days.
To make it feel as authentic as possible, the game was developed in consultation with more than 100 Marines and Soldiers who served in the Second Battle of Fallujah in 2004. This is in addition to the dozens of Iraqi soldiers and civilians from the same time. Additionally, the U.S government has no involvement in the development of the game and also the game is independently financed to boot.
Finally, it’s also worth noting that you cannot play as an insurgent in any of the game modes in Six Days in Fallujah – this isn’t that sort of game.
How Does It Play?
As far from the three-dimensional game of whack-a-mole that many less serious FPS titles have become, Six Days in Fallujah is all about marrying up precision gunplay with dynamic battlefield tactics. From implementing suppressing fire to sophisticated flanking manoeuvres, ingress breaches and more, approaching this game like Call of Duty is going to get you filled with holes quicker than you can say ‘push X to pay respect’.
With the Second Battle of Fallujah widely recognised as one of the toughest battles of modern times, Six Days in Fallujah differentiates itself from the competition by essentially crafting a 360 degree battlefield. What this means is that danger can come from anywhere – from snipers in towers to small arms fire in close quarters and IEDs that have been wired into the ground, staying alive is so much more than just blasting whoever you can see in front of you.
According to its developers, Six Days in Fallujah exists quite simply to give a voice to the people who were there and who, by virtue of the media of the time, were perhaps portrayed in ways that were disconnected to their actual natures and the experiences that they went through during the fateful Second Battle of Fallujah in late 2004.
How Violent Is It?
Befitting its reputation as one of the bloody conflicts in recent memory, Six Days in Fallujah is plenty violent. Players can expect eruptions of red mist as bullets tear through flesh and limbs, while enemies fall to the ground appropriately lifeless after they’ve been killed. Out of respect for the veterans and their loved ones, you will only see the death of a Marine or Soldier if their families have specifically signed off on it. Otherwise, this game will convey the death of Soldiers and Marines via video interviews which take place during the story campaign that will be implemented later on in Early Access.
Six Days in Fallujah Content Roadmap Details
Speaking of which, over the course of its Early Access run, the developers behind Six Days in Fallujah will look to implement the following features from their content roadmap:
- Additional maps for use in the four player cooperative mission modes
- Implementation of times of day and complex weather systems
- Inclusion of special operations forces from other coalition nations
- Additional equipment and mission types
- AI teammates that can stand in for human players in the cooperative mission modes
- Inclusion of different civilian types that can complicate missions significantly
- Introduction of story campaign missions later in Early Access that are based on and sometimes narrated by the Iraqis and coalition forces that were there
