The team behind WWII Online is composed of nearly 50 active contributors, and that says a lot about the amount of work going into getting the Steam release right. While WWII Online has been around for a whopping 16 years, that also means it has just as many years worth of content to bring along with it to Steam, and the game itself is just one aspect of Cornered Rat Software’s ambitious content roadmap for 2017. ![]() Instead, its debut will be on the Steam Early Access platform, which is mostly in an effort to make the full release go as smoothly as possible.
