And last but not least, for the potential new recruits, we got some extra exciting news for you, starting later today. Find more about it further down in this announcement.
Want to prepare yourself for the map before jumping in? Read our devblog about the Marmolada map. So you’re fully ready to explore the maze-like Ice City.
To give you some information, for Marmolada in Isonzo, the Italians will be the attacking side, which means the Austro-Hungarians will be defending the mountain and their Ice City. Starting off, the Italians will be placed on the mountain side in the open, surrounded by snow. Fighting for objectives outside on the snowy mountain top, making your way through the tunnels of the Ice City to eventually make your way to the final objective; This map is unlike any other in the game.
As for the new weapons; the Vetterli Mod.1870 for Italy, Austria-Hungary gets the Repetier-Gewehr M.14 and the Germans receive the Gewehr 71/84

13 Italian Headgear Items

6 Austro-Hungarian Uniforms

One of the most important things you could wear during a cold snowstorm is a warm winter coat. This is one of the items you’ll find in the DLC. The Austro-Hungarians get utilitarian snow overcoats, and later war grey greatcoats - there’s even an Austro-Hungarian officer forgoing all the style and bombast befitting his rank in preference for an ill-fitting white overcoat.
If you play as an Italian soldier, you can wear a selection of greatcoats, a fashionable open army cape or a warm sheep’s wool vest. The Italian Alpini enjoy a uniform kitted out with ice climbing cleats and a stylish cape, while their officers can luxuriate with a fur collared greatcoat.
