WW1 Shooter Gallipoli Launches August 20 Across PC & Consoles

BlackMill Games has officially announced that Gallipoli will launch on August 20, 2026, bringing its next authentic World War 1 tactical shooter to PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.

The fourth installment in the studio's acclaimed WW1 series follows Verdun, Tannenberg, and Isonzo, this time transporting players to the brutal Battle of Gallipoli in 1915. Staying true to the franchise, Gallipoli combines historically accurate weapons, uniforms, and battlefields with large-scale, teamwork-focused multiplayer combat.

A newly released trailer showcases several improvements inspired by community feedback, including more impactful gunplay, enhanced movement mechanics, cross-platform multiplayer, strategic squad roles, and upgraded audio for a more immersive battlefield experience.

Originally scheduled to release in May, the game was delayed due to technical issues. With a new launch date now confirmed, BlackMill Games appears ready to deliver its most polished World War 1 experience yet.

While World War 2 remains the dominant setting for military shooters, World War 1 games remain relatively rare. By focusing on individual historic battles, BlackMill Games continues to offer a unique experience that blends authenticity with tactical gameplay, keeping one of gaming's most distinctive historical shooter franchises alive.
