RAID: World War II is a four player co-op shooter video game that lets players team up as the Raid crew and venture through the epic events of World War II. The game is still in development by Lion Game Lion and will be published by Starbreeze Studios for Microsoft Windows. The game will focus more on action than providing a realistic World War II experience and the game missions are all inspired by real combat scenarios.

Synopsis

During World War II, the Nazis are on the verge of winning the war in Europe, bullets do little as the Nazis seem unstoppable, however, 4 bank robbers are bought together with a purpose, rebel against the Nazi oppression and sabotage the Nazis' chances of victory by sabotaging, assassinate, steal, and pulverise anything bearing the Swastika.[4]

Development

RAID: World War II is being developed by Lion Game Lion, a Croatian Starbreeze partner studio, that has been developing DLC contents for Payday 2.[5] The team behind Raid: World War II chose to work with Diesel, an engine made by Overkill Software (ex-Grin Studios), because they have an extensive experience on working with the engine. The game has a budget of 8 million dollars (USD), all financed by Starbreeze Studios.
