If you’ve got a copy of Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45, then you’ve also got a copy of the Darkest Hour mod, and you’re in luck! It’s just been patched.

Darkest Hour

This time around, the update is pretty substantial, adding two new weapons, six new roles, 11 new maps and an amazing 13 new playable vehicles – certainly nothing to sneeze at!

New Maps

Bridgehead Caen Cambes-en-Plaine Carentan Causeway Gran Hill 400 Kommerscheidt Lutremange Poteau Ambush Simonskall Vieux Recon

New Vehicles:

Sherman M4A3E2 ‘Jumbo’ GMC 2.5 Ton Truck Sherman M4A3 (75 mm)W Sherman M4A3 (76 mm)W M-8 Greyhound M-18 Hellcat Jagdtiger (Jagdpanzer VI Ausf. B) Marder III Ausf. M SdKfz 234/1 Armored Car SdKfz 234/2 “Puma” Jagdpanzer IV Ausf F (L/48) Jagdpanzer IV Ausf J (L/70) StuH 42

That’s just the start. There are also crewable mortars as well as that new batch of playable roles – and the usual “very long list” of other changes.

Want to see how it all fits together? The developers have created this handy trailer to show off their new wares.
