Sudden Strike 4 Reversible Cover Art Revealed
The popular Sudden Strike World War II RTS series is about to make its prepped and ready to deploy for Windows and Playstation 4 in just a few weeks. Our buddies over at Kalypso Media revealed today some awesome bonus artwork that fans can pick up with their Day One Edition of Sudden Strike 4, designed by none other than Robert Simon.
Developed as a fully-fledged series entry and not a remake or reboot, Sudden Strike 4 sends you off on three extensive campaigns set amongst the battlefields of World War II. Commanding the British and American, German or Soviet armies, you will lead over 100 different units into battle, including the German Heinkel He111 bomber, the Russian T-34 tank, the British Hawker Typhoon fighter plane and even the notorious German Panzerkampfwagen VI “Tiger”.
Prove your tactical expertise in over 20 demanding single player scenarios, the challenge-focused skirmish mode, and the competitive multiplayer mode. A new reward system awards the player for clever play with skill points and bonus unlockable content.
Simon, who is acclaimed for his work on Emmy award winning TV show Game of Thrones and titles such as Killzone: Shadow Fall and Ryse: Son of Rome, has collaborated with Kalypso to define Sudden Strike 4’s distinctive art style with a series of reversible World War II propaganda-inspired Artwork.
The Day One Edition of Sudden Strike 4 on PC and PlayStation 4 will feature three of Simon’s World War II propaganda poster inspired oil paintings in-box as reversible bonus covers, themed after each of the three factions featured in Sudden Strike 4 — Western Allies, German and Soviet.
The Sudden Strike 4 Day One Edition for PC includes the ‘Battle of Kursk’ Skirmish map, a digital artbook and a digital soundtrack. These bonuses are also available digitally via Steam for Windows PC, Linux and Mac.
