Worth buying? What 300 Steam reviews say.Worth buying? Here’s what 300 Steam reviews actually say.
Verdun is a slow, brutal, authentic WW1 trench shooter with great atmosphere and one-hit kills. The player base is tiny and mostly bots, so skip it if you need busy servers or a single-player campaign.
Great for
Players who like slow, authentic WW1 trench warfare, squad play and one-hit-kill tension, ideally bought on sale
Main risk
Dead servers: you will mostly play with bots, and the game has no single-player campaign

“Verdun is the closest I've felt to genuine WWI trench warfare in a video game — the atmosphere, weapon sounds, and squad-based Frontlines mode create tension that most shooters can't touch.”

“They divided their already small player base between 3 separate games when they really should have made both Tannenberg and Isonzo as expansions for Verdun to keep their player base together.”
