As we recently revealed here, today we are celebrating the 13th anniversary since the launch of the first Panzer Corps game. Join our Twitch channel at 5:30pm CEST for an event dedicated to the Panzer Corps franchise.
We will showcase never-before-seen screenshots, gameplay footage, and an exclusive interview with our developers, where we’ll discuss the future of the game and share some exciting news.
As part of the celebration, we will have two guests of honor: Mattia Pastorino, Game Designer and co-founder of Volcanite Games, and Bernd Brosing, Slitherine's Game Designer. They will guide us through the new Frontlines series and explain their plans for the next DLCs.
Mattia and the Volcanite Games team have recently been working on a DLC that will be part of the Frontlines series focused on Operation E and Operation Compass. They are collaborating closely with the Slitherine team to ensure smooth integration of the DLC into the series. Meanwhile, Bernd and the internal Slitherine team are working on another DLC for Frontlines, which will focus more on the Siegfried Line.
We have planned many activities to properly celebrate this day. Here is a brief recap:
