This War of Mine Adds Story-based DLC

Three years ago today, This War of Mine brought the experience of civilian survival in wartime to PC. Triggering both sadness and hope, This War of Mine was a compelling game that became a global phenomenon.

Today 11 Bit Studios are releasing the Father’s Promise DLC on Steam.

Father’s Promise is a story-driven experience based on an audio-drama by award-winning Polish author Łukasz Orbitowski. You take on the role of Adam, a father trying to save his daughter from the horrors of war and escape the besieged city. Follow their steps and discover a story of love, hate, and sacrifice.

Father’s Promise is the first episode of This War of Mine Stories; a DLC series that focuses on narrative over pure survival. Father’s Promise is available on Steam for $1.99 (USD) or as part of a season pass for $4.99.
