Men of War: Red Tide announced


1C Company's WWII RTS game Men of War was released just a few months ago but now 1C has just announced that the game is getting a stand alone follow-up. Titled Men of War: Red Tide, the new game in the series is described as an expansion pack but will not require the original game to play.

The new 20 mission single player campaign will have the player take command of the Soviet Marines, also known as the "Black Coats" fighting battles during the Black Sea Campaigns of WWII. The expansion will contain dozens of new or upgraded units. As with the original game Aspyr Media will publish the follow-up in the US

The other is XIII Century Gold Edition, a new collection that contains both the 2008 historical RTS game (set in the Middle Ages) and its upcoming sequel XIII Century: Blood of Europe. Both games will ship sometime this summer in retail stores and via digital download and like 1C Company's previous games they will have no DRM set-up.
