Tanks will be a bit late.

Eugen Systems has bad news for those waiting for the release of the strategy game - Steel Division 2. It will be delayed by a month - from April 4 to May 2 (the owners of the Total Conflict, Commander Deluxe and General Deluxe editions will be enable to play from April 30). The devs explain the delay with the desire to polish the title. As a consolation, a new gameplay footage from the game appeared on the web. You can see it below.

Appropriate material for analysis is to be provided by beta-tests, available to all players who have decided to place a preorder for Steel Division 2. Their first round will begin on March 27 and will last 48 hours. It will include two divisions (2nd GuardsTank Corps and 5th Panzerdivision), three game modes (Conquest, Closer Combat and Breakthrough) and two maps. Subsequent beta-tests will be held weekly until the release day. Each of them will have a different content.
