The Game at a Glance
What is Glory to the Heroes?
Glory to the Heroes is an Unreal Engine 5 military simulation shooter developed by Deaf Tone Games that recreates the Russian-Ukrainian war. Players deploy as enlisted soldiers fighting across photogrammetry-scanned battlefields featuring combined-arms combat, realistic ballistics, and tactical drone strikes.
A deployment places soldiers into shifting objective battles or persistent servers where squad coordination and target identification are essential. Players navigate severe physical inertia and medical trauma, managing gear risk through extraction or securing loot in persistent base stashes.
