Tactical WW2 FPS focusing on squad cooperation rather than individual prowess. Original squad management, realistic atmosphere. Less polished than the first episode but brings its share of content. Solid for genre fans.

Is Brothers in Arms - Earned in Blood still worth playing in 2026?
A direct sequel to Gearbox's tactical FPS, Brothers in Arms Earned in Blood extends the realistic World War II approach, built on squad manoeuvre, suppressing fire and flanking rather than frontal action. The command system, the historical authenticity and the tension of the firefights make for a demanding, immersive FPS. The production and the AI have aged. A tactical FPS to recommend for fans of realistic war games and thoughtful squad combat.
