Very straightforward control scheme for anyone that has played a modern FPS title before, with one noticeable expectation that the game includes the ability to lean your body using Q/E, walk with alt key and go prone using Z, which is essential to surviving out in the battlefield. Now while I haven’t actually touched a WW2 shooter since Valve’s Day of Defeat way back in 2003, I was more or less able to get into the swing of things for Day of Infamy, but not before getting my virtual body drilled full of holes.
It’s a game that doesn’t bring anything particularly new to the genre or theme as a whole, but what it does is that it plays into its genre and does it well, which I can completely respect and enjoy.
With my time spent playing the game for a few hours, I can easily say that the folks at New World have achieved that goal with flying colors.
While focusing on both co-op and competitive gameplay, Day of Infamy sets out to create a deep and realistic WW2 shooter experience. Call of Duty, Company of Heroes, Battlefield 1942, Red Orchestra, Brothers in Arms, Medal of Honor, Command… This list goes on and on…Īnd well, the folks at New World Interactive probably thought to themselves and said “The WW2 theme sure has been oversaturated and overdone through the years… Let’s add one more to that list!” And with that said, here’s “ Day of Infamy” a new tactical-focused WW2 shooter created by the same developer team behind Insurgency. It’s probably one of the most overdone history retellings of all time, with a long laundry list of titles spanning from shooters, strategy games and flight simulators. If there’s one thing that the gaming world will never seem to stop talking about, it’s World-War-Freaking-Two.
