The release is getting closer and we’re preparing for Early Access.

What will be available at launch?

Early Access will start with:

  • 4 out of 8 campaign missions

  • 1 Operation (sandbox-style mission)

During Early Access, we will continue expanding the game. New singleplayer missions will be added, while co-op is introduced step by step in parallel. After that, PvP and user-generated content (mission editor) will be rolled out.

What kind of game is this?

Beyond Enemy Lines - Vietnam is not a modern live-service shooter.

It’s a combat sandbox built with modern tech, but inspired by classic design from ~20 years ago.

Our focus is on:

  • player freedom

  • experimentation

  • replayable combat scenarios

Without systems that try to control how or when you play.

That means:

  • no battle pass

  • no FOMO mechanics

  • no artificial grind

  • no pressure to keep logging in

We want to build a game you can come back to anytime and just play.

Design approach

The campaign is more structured than in previous titles.

Instead of dropping you into a fully open area with all objectives visible, missions guide you through a broader path that opens up into larger combat spaces.

This creates a better flow while still leaving enough freedom to approach situations differently.

For full sandbox gameplay, Operations remove that structure entirely.

Gameplay & Systems

  • Checkpoints during missions

    →Previous titles had no mid-mission saves at all - now we’ve added a checkpoint system to make missions more accessible without losing tension.

  • Unified progression across all modes → singleplayer, multiplayer and user-generated content unlock the same gear

  • Classic multiplayer structure → server browser → dedicated servers + peer-to-peer hosting → no matchmaking

  • No dependency on our servers → the game remains playable even without backend services

Anti-Cheat

We use a layered system:

  • Easy Anti-Cheat

  • Server admins (kick / ban)

  • Vote kick + reporting

  • Backend analysis of player behavior
