About the Game RAID: World War II is an action-packed four player cooperative shooter set in Europe during World War II, where your aim is to thwart the Nazi onslaught. Four prisoners of war – Sterling, Rivet, Kurgan and Wolfgang have been freed by “Mrs. White,” a secret British Intelligence Operative, who needs someone to take down Hitler and his Third Reich once and for all. Their objective is to fight the war - without rules or mercy. Their reward is all the Nazi gold they can carry. THE RAID GANG - For glory, but mostly for money. Our four heroes are drawn from the main combatants in the European theater of World War II - Great Britain, USA, Germany and the Soviet Union. Each character has their own look with fully customizable uniforms making you stand out on the battlefield. CLASSES - Play it your way Choose from four different classes each with their own unique sets of playstyles and weapons. Pick off your enemies with precision as Recon, drown the Jerries in lead as Assault, soak up bullets as Insurgent, or blow everyone to smithereens as Demolitions. Unleash your Warcry- powerful abilities that buff you and your allies to help you turn the tide of battle. MISSIONS - Burn the enemy alive! Raid places of historic importance across war-torn Europe. From the mighty Flakturm dominating the heart of Berlin, or the idyllic Bridge over the river Elbe, bring destruction to Nazis in every corner of Hitler’s Reich. Find secret documents to unlock special Outlaw Raids, where you go behind your employers back and only focus on lifting as much gold for yourself as possible. Take on extended missions called Operations, a chained series of Raids set in familiar locations, featuring new storylines and objectives. The risks are greater, but so are the rewards! CHALLENGE CARDS - There’s a twist Earn and use collectable Challenge Cards that let you spice up a mission in all kinds of ways. You may want a little health boost to get you across the finish line, tackle a mission with only pistols, or perhaps scuttle your way to victory using the fan “favorite” Crab People.
