In the world of epic multiplayer war games that authentically capture the essence of historic battles with incredible detail, Enlisted stands as a premier example. This free-to-play game isn’t just about its engaging competitive spirit; it recently kicked things up a notch with its latest update, introducing early jet fighters and adding some intriguing weapons to its World War 2-themed lineup.
You’ll find yourself diving into battles that bring American, Soviet, German, and Japanese forces to life. Enlisted gives you everything necessary to recreate genuine WWII skirmishes or lets you mix elements for some imaginative “who would win?” scenarios. It’s a game that’s had its share of challenges—facing criticism and even being delisted from Steam shortly after its initial release. However, it has bounced back with considerable improvements, establishing itself as a must-play war game. The latest surprise, the Jet Power update, only enhances this experience.
This update energizes aerial skirmishes by introducing jet-powered planes for each nation. America now fields the Meteor F Mk.3 and the F-80A-5, while Germany takes to the skies with two variations of the Messerschmitt jet: the Me 262 A-1a/Jabo and the Me 262 A-1/U4. Over in the Soviet camp, players can pilot the Su-9, and the Japanese forces have access to the Kikka jet.
If aerial combat isn’t your thing and you’d rather stay grounded, there’s fresh artillery to experiment with on the battlefield. The Soviets can now wield the Fedorov 1912 rifle and the Urugan SMG. For German infantry, the MG 81 machine gun, typically found on aircraft, is now available as a carried weapon. To bolster the Japanese forces’ anti-tank capabilities, they can now deploy the German-engineered Ofenrohr rocket launcher. Meanwhile, the Americans have added the Northover Projector to their ranks—a formidable cannon launching phosphorous grenades over long distances.
Beyond the enhancements to military hardware, this update refreshes several maps, prominently revamping Seelow Heights. The battlefield now features a variety of plant life, new routes to seize objectives, and additional cover for infantry, offering a richer combat environment.
The Jet Power update is currently live, along with a new battle pass. For a detailed rundown of all changes, check out the full patch notes.
Don’t forget, Enlisted doesn’t cost a dime to play on PC, so there’s no barrier to testing it out. If you’re interested in more games with a similar vibe, take a peek at our roundup of the best FPS games.
