Foxhole: Naval Warfare Has Been Launched For PC Today
Siege Camp has released a new piece of content for Foxhole this morning, as the new Naval Warfare additions is live on PC.
Indie game developer and publisher Siege Camp has released their latest wartime expansion, Foxhole: Naval Warfare, for PC players today. In case you weren't already aware, the content will bring you to the high seas as you'll fight it out in naval battles with their new ship combat system. We have more info on the release below from the team, as it's available to download for the main Foxhole title on Steam today.
Naval Warfare introduces full-fledged naval battles to the Foxhole sandbox. Build fleets encompassing Gunboats, Destroyers, and colossal Battleships with dozens of players on deck simultaneously. Deliver ammunition, launch depth charges, and deploy sea mines, all while maintaining and regulating ship systems, such as the engines, sonar, and navigation. Band together both above and below deck in order to outmaneuver enemy vessels.
When cast out to sea, moment-to-moment decisions among player crews can be the difference between victory and defeat. Individual ship subsections can be targeted and destroyed, causing compartments to become flooded. Seawater must be bailed out and leaks repaired to stay afloat. Unsuspecting submarines can ambush convoys and thwart naval invasions before they begin. Invade beaches with an amphibious landing craft and construct portable harbors to support troops as they fight their way through enemy bunkers, trenches, and emplacements. Logistics forces have also been upgraded with new vessels for sea-based operations, and towable field weapons provide increased mobility. The expanded naval game combined with island warfare expands the persistent world to an entirely new scope and scale.
