Square Enix announces Order of War

Ooh, this one looks nice alright. Software house Square Enix announced Wargaming.net’s World War II real-time strategy game, Order of War, this Autumn. The game will be released exclusively on the PC  (yay!).

Press-release - In the summer of 1944, the Second World War entered its end-game when the Allies launched two major operations that would drive back German forces on both the Western and Eastern Fronts at once. In the ultimate test of military strategy, ORDER OF WAR will challenge you not only to lead America’s finest to victory in the West, but also place you in command of German forces charged with repelling the Red Army’s seemingly unstoppable offensive in the East. Even the keenest military minds will find that it’s one thing to make history, but quite another to change it. Do you have what it takes to command?
