A Russian-made WW2-themed real-time tactics game in the vein of Commandos and Shadow Tactics. No trailer yet, but there is some footage linked below. The engine is very impressive, panning and zooming in and out to unusual depth and with unusual smoothness for the genre. The art style is good too. And there will be a strategic map and base-management in-between the tactical missions.

Alter Games wrote:Partisans is a real-time tactical strategy with non-linear type of storytelling. This game is about soviet partisans and their activity during World War II. It’s focused on harsh reality in those times, when many people became reluctant heroes, and every feat required its price, and sometimes this price was extremely high.

The game shows the war from a new, poorly explored angle. However, it is not a historical simulator, Partisans offers a unique interpretation of those times’ events. The game shows partisans’ everyday life, which is full of cold, hunger and wounds. Still there is a room for joy as well. Players would have to make tough choices, for example, they’ll have to decide whether to help civilians and betray their position or to walk past and stay unnoticed. The game give opportunities to prove oneself in a fight, to overcome the superior forces of the enemy using cunning and mother wit, and to leave the field when the situation is really bad.

TACTICS
Partisan war is a sabotage war. Forget about open fights, that are usual in games about World War II, in which a lone ranger breaks through thousands of enemies. Discover a multifaceted tactical game in which intelligence, patience and caution get the win. Explore the territory, plan attacks, avoid detecting and deal fatal strikes on the enemies’ superior forces.

CHARACTERS
You’ll have to become the commander of partisans, to lead a squad and to form the relations system. The main character finds himself in the rear of German troops and gathers a squad of local residents and the surviving Red Army’s soldiers. Complicated moral choices and problems with discipline in the squad – all these things are part of the commander’s everyday life. Your squad will consist of more than 10 characters, each with a unique biography and personality. Among them are trained soldiers and ordinary people from cities and villages, who lost their home and family because of war.

METAGAME
The game combines several modes: real-time missions, base management and strategic campaign management. In strategic mode you’ll have to open new areas on the global map, send the partisans for scouting and select missions for the squad. Some locations are must, they will lead you through the main plotline. However exploring hidden areas can help you to get random missions that could also affect the squad’s story.
