MicroProse is taking a bold step into the hardcore milsim territory with Afterconflict, a Cold War-era tactical FPS that pulls no punches when it comes to realism. Developed for those who thrive on the tension of calculated combat, Afterconflict plunges players into the boots of NATO and Warsaw Pact soldiers locked in a gritty, unforgiving battlefield across a divided Europe.
The first taste of Afterconflict’s meticulous realism is already available on Steam with a new Tech Demo that showcases the Firing Range. But don’t expect an easy run-and-gun experience. Every shot matters, and every weapon feels heavy, with authentic ballistics, damage modelling, and reloading mechanics that force players to think and move like real soldiers.
Adding to the challenge is the advanced dynamic lighting system, which dramatically affects visibility and performance, turning every encounter into a test of both strategy and skill. Built on a custom engine designed for precision and extensibility, Afterconflict comes with a robust modding framework that lets players craft their scenarios, tweak mechanics, and add new content.
This isn’t just another FPS—it’s a relentless military simulation grounded in realism. From uniforms and optics to ammo types and battlefield behaviour, every detail is meticulously crafted to simulate real-world performance. The developers have gone deep, with research and accuracy forming the backbone of the experience.
Want a closer look at what makes this a potential game-changer in the milsim genre? The official Afterconflict YouTube channel features behind-the-scenes content, showcasing the systems and mechanics that set it apart. Whether you’re a milsim veteran or a newcomer looking for a challenge, Afterconflict is shaping up to be a must-watch title for anyone craving a brutally authentic Cold War-era combat experience.
