Meet High Caliber! This update brings a new type of weapon to Enlisted: large-caliber machine guns — 12.7mm of pure terror for infantry, aviation and even lightly armored vehicles. You’ll be able to use them with all machine gunner squads of any army and in any campaign!
The Battle of Stalingrad has a new front — the huge Stalingrad Tractor Plant is now available as a new battlefield for this campaign! The hot melting furnaces, hundreds of metres of production lines and the winter that hit in full force are still very much present. Tractors from yesterday — tanks from today!
Phosphorus grenades have now been added to the Invasion of Normandy and Battle of Tunisia campaigns, and remote explosives and bomber airstrikes are now also available in all campaigns. Now it’s your turn to try these weapons and mechanics wherever you like!
Tankers now have smoke shells and defensive smoke charges for their tanks, and mortarmen are also now equipped with smoke rounds to cover allied maneuvers — keep your advances hidden, or retreat for repairs under the cover of smoke.
In Moscow, Normandy, and Berlin, customization for your soldiers is now available, the replay mechanic has a built-in mechanism for recording video and creating high resolution screenshots — along with dozens of other improvements in the High Caliber update.
