Kalypso Media and KITE Games have revealed Sudden Strike 5. It launches in 2026 on PS5, Xbox, and PC (Steam, Epic). This is the series’ biggest step yet. Expect large maps, deep strategy, and chaotic WWII combat.

300 units. 25 missions. No easy wins.

The campaign takes you through Europe and North Africa. You’ll fight across 25 missions inspired by real battles. Timing matters. Every move counts. This isn’t about who hits hardest. It’s about who hits smartest.

You get 300+ authentic units. That includes Shermans, T-34s, Messerschmitts, artillery, and infantry. All recreated with attention to detail. Pick your approach. Flank the enemy. Cut off their routes. Capture key zones. Or go full assault.

No one way to win. Each mission gives you choices. Use recon. Plan sabotage. Or hit fast before they react.

Pick a commander and change the fight in Sudden Strike 5.

You can choose a Commander in Sudden Strike 5. Each one has unique abilities. Some boost damage. Others give cover or better vision. Choose what suits your strategy. Adapt when needed.

You control the camera too. Zoom way out to plan. Or zoom in and watch the action unfold.

Multiplayer is in. Face real players or test your skills against the AI. Several difficulty levels will push your limits.

Sudden Strike 5 is the biggest game in the series yet. More content. More depth. More control. If you love smart, tactical warfare, this one’s for you.
