Gameplay and Features

1. Campaign Mode
   The campaign in Vanguard lets players dive into intense missions across various theaters of WWII. Featuring characters inspired by real-world heroes, the campaign tells the story of the formation of Task Force One, an elite squad working to thwart Nazi forces and lay the foundation for special operations forces. Through missions set in bombed-out cities, lush forests, and vast deserts, players experience a broad range of combat styles, from close-quarters to long-range engagements.
