Red Orchestra: Heroes of Stalingrad Announced, Will Feature German Campaign

Looks like the proverbial kitchen sink of World War II games has finally been thrown into the mix. Developer Tripwire Interactive has officially announced that Red Orchestra: Heroes of Stalingrad – sequel to realistic mod-gone-commercial Red Orchestra: Osfront 41-45 – will do, at this point, the only thing no other World War II game has done before: Add a German single-player/co-op campaign.
Fear not, however; Red Orchestra isn’t setting its sights on needless controversy. As with its predecessor, this trip into the trenches gives utmost priority to “accuracy and detail.” Looks like our dream of slipping into the biomechanical boots of mecha-Hitler will have to wait.
No word on a release date just yet, but Tripwire’s only just begun to inform. Expect more news on Heroes of Stalingrad in the coming weeks.

Anyone know what engine this will use? I know they have been hiring UE3 designers. The thing that bugged me most about the original game was when my Tiger would be stopped by a wooden fence. Oh, what I would give for some destructable environments!

I think you forgot to insert Shooter before World War II, as Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts and Tales of Valor both feature German campaigns.
