Talking about Landing Force,

Michael Ma, Designer and Rajesh Parmar, both from Artistfrom Flix Interactive shared some details about the Landing Force mission on the Xbox Wire, here is what they had to say.

“Landing Force is set on an island off the coast of southern France, that was initially used as a luxury resort. The Nazis have dramatically changed it into a giant weapon that is guarding the sea. It is up to Karl to destroy the guns and shutdown the lighthouse to signal the Allied fleet that they are safe to begin Operation Dragoon and take back France.

The mission was inspired by the movie ‘The Guns of Navarone’ so we wanted the coastal weapons to be the focus and have a looming presence over the whole mission.

Setting the mission at night really helps set the mood and lean into the importance of remaining undetected. You will get to encounter a variety of different buildings, scenery, and landscapes within the level, and we have also added elements of ancient ruins, forts, walls, and abandoned buildings scattered across the map, giving the island a deeper sense of history.

The entire map can be explored, and players have multiple routes to take in order to locate their objective and numerous ways to complete them. We can’t wait for you to play it!”

There is even more detail to be learnt about the new update, including details on the weapons and the free map, you can read it all over on the Xbox Wire.

The free content is available now for all, with the Landing Force mission and other additions available to all Season One Pass owners.
