Combat Elite: WWII Paratroopers, released in 2005 for PS2 and Xbox, is a Shooter/RPG main game where you command and fight alongside thousands of Allied paratroopers to stop the Nazis across France, Holland, and Belgium. The core loop involves completing over 40 missions recreating major WWII battles like D-Day, utilizing authentic weapons and vehicles in varied environments from rural areas to war-torn cities.
The narrative thrust involves stopping the Axis powers across historically significant European theaters of war. Players will navigate diverse environments, ranging from the rolling hills and small farms of the countryside to heavily contested, war-torn cities across France, Holland, and Belgium. The game boasts more than 40 varied missions designed to recreate some of the toughest and most recognizable battles of the Second World War.
The mission structure is built around major WWII operations, including the D-Day landings, Operation Market Garden, and the Battle of the Bulge. This focus provides a framework for the large-scale combat scenarios central to the gameplay.
The gameplay loop involves engaging in combat missions utilizing authentic weaponry and vehicles available to the Allied forces of the era. While categorized as a Shooter, the inclusion of RPG elements suggests a layer of progression or character management beyond standard run-and-gun action, though specific RPG mechanics are integrated within the context of leading and fighting alongside airborne units.
A key feature highlighted is the presence of authentic equipment, enhancing the immersion into the WWII setting. Furthermore, the player is supported by a large contingent of over 17,000 US and British paratroopers, emphasizing squad-based or large-scale tactical engagement rather than purely solo infiltration.
