Hey there,
I'm surprised, no topics were made for this upcoming title.
PostScriptum : The Bloody Seventh is a tactical FPS with manned ground vehicles from jeep to tanks.
It will have 3 gamemodes (Stratagem, Offensive and Sandbox), 5 maps (a total of 140kmĀ²) and a very good amount of assets, (50 vehicles and 30 weapons).
Also, do note that cannons are operated with only keyboard WASD and use real rate of rotations, one fast and one for precision adjustments.
Spitfires (gun run) , Mosquitos (bomb run) , BF109 (gun run) and Stukas (bomb run) are called by the commander and are Off Map assets.
The game is based on the events of September 1944 during Operation Market Garden since this particular theater is not really much represented in games.
The maps will be the recreation of real terrain, each field designed was an actual field back then. The city of Arhem will be released also.
The engine of the game is from Squad but is standalone and will most likely represents other theater (if the game is sucessful) such as North Africa, Ostfront or Normandy in their future episodes since The Bloody Seventh is the first one.
But enough said, as images and videos are the best to show off a video game, I link you some gameplay of the closed alpha playtest of this month and the official PS youtube channel.

Pretty exciting, right? Amazed by the sound design!
