About

The game is a prequel to Medal of Honor and it is set in the early stages of WWII. You play as Manon Batiste, who briefed the missions for you in the original Medal of Honor. She is a new member of a small band of French rebels who fight against the tyranny of the Germans. There are 7 missions in total, featuring 12 different historical weapons. There are NPCs helping you out by cracking safes and driving. Not all enemies are on foot; expect to face tanks and bikes amongst other things.

What players say

A solid early WWII shooter starring a French Resistance fighter, blending action and light stealth with strong historical flavor; controls feel awkward at first and it leans heavily on its predecessor's engine.
