The Project Reality Team is proud to announce the official release of Project Reality: BF2 v1.6! We would like to start with a major thank you for the ongoing support and feedback through all these years. We are now in PR:BF2's 16th year of development, that is no small feat. Today, Project Reality: BF2 is a free-to-play & standalone online game, with an emphasis on realistic combat environments, teamwork and cooperation with 50v50 servers. The development cycle for v1.6 was long and difficult, but it is your support that keeps us going! Today we are excited to launch our 39th major update.

Project Reality:BF2 v1.6
In this latest version of Project Reality: BF2, we implement the long-awaited World War 2 Western Front theatre, with a fully equipped US Army and Wehrmacht, battling on five brand new maps with dozens of new weapons and vehicles. Next to that we also introduce several other new assets and features to the core PR experience. You can find more information in the changelog below the screenshots.

We are excited to announce our 39th major release of Project Reality: v1.6! It will feature the highly anticipated World War 2 theatre, but that's not everything we have prepared for this occasion. We would like to highlight some of the things that will be available for you to play very soon!

World War 2 has finally been fully integrated into Project Reality after seeing a lot of improvements and additions since the WW2 Beta a few years back. It features the Western Front with US and German forces, 33 weapons, 16 vehicles and 5 new maps. We would like to thank everyone who contributed over the years to the WW2 project, their names can be found below.

Another big part of the v1.6 update is new and updated content for existing factions. Adding not only two new helicopters and several vehicles, the Russian forces will also now no longer rely on a cargo ship to transport their troops to battle, as the Vladimir Andreev LPD ship will be their new main base on maps such as Vadso, Saaremaa and Beirut.

Many new features have been added such as the ability to drag bodies, ejector seats in aircraft, improved lag compensation and parachutes opening automatically. Furthermore, the main menus has received a makeover to look more modern. Several vehicle HUDs have also been updated.

As this is only the announcement, it’s by no means a full and complete list of all features and content, for that you’ll have to wait for the full changelog. We plan to release v1.6 soon, but unforeseen issues could push this back.
