We don't get many WW1 shooters and I imagine since it's WW1 it'll mainly be infantry combat. Looks exactly like RO2 though IMO.

Verdun is a squad based multiplayer first person shooter set in the first world war. Inspired by the infamous battle of Verdun in 1916 players are able to take part in never seen before WWI action. Made by 3 indie developers from BlackMill and M2H.
Game Features in a nutshell
Unique World War One setting.
4 Distinct squads for France or Germany
Unique team gameplay; 4 exclusive roles inside each squad.
Innovative squad leveling system; you have to work together to level your squad.
4 environmentally diverse maps to fight on.
Cross-platform support PC / Mac / Linux
Historically accurate weapons and attachments.
Game has seen a great surge in players with the summer sale, it's a blast to play if you're into that kind of thing and/or WWI. They have to polish things, but overall I'm enjoying this a great deal. Try it if you liked RO1.
Devs are planning to add new content like a new gore system, units, Americans and even flamethrowers I think.
Tannenberg is the latest entry in the 1914-1918 WW1 Game Series that started with WW1 FPS Verdun, expanding the focus to encompass the Eastern Front. Warfare on the border of the Russian Empire offers a fresh experience for new and veteran players alike, with new squads and weapons, open maps that give players tactical freedom, and a whole new 64 player game mode!
This historical game takes place across the lakes, forests, and snowy plains of the Eastern Front - it was inspired by the Battle of Tannenberg in 1914 where the Russian Second Army was dealt a heavy blow by the Germans. Tannenberg offers a range of game modes - including the exciting new mode reflecting the different nature of war on the Eastern Front - and a wealth of historical detail: realistic WW1 weaponry, authentic uniforms, horrendous gore, and maps based on real battlefields, this time in the forests, plains and mountains along the border between the Russian Empire and the Central Powers.
Tannenberg key features include:
Realistic World War 1 gameplay
Tactical squad-based FPS
Warfare on the Eastern Front
Majestic backdrops and map detail
Variety of game modes for player counts of up to 64
Experience World War One on the Eastern Front
It’s all-out war on the Eastern Front! From artillery barrages and poison gas to the deadly machinegun and humble rifle, there are many weapons to master. The battlefield is a dangerous place, and a little thought will help you stay alive – lead your shots, keep your eyes open, and be ready to engage in ferocious close combat at any moment.
Authentic Eastern Front Warfare
The development team is aiming to recreate the atmosphere of the Eastern Front with the same level of accuracy as in Verdun. Uniforms have been recreated to the tiniest detail, the weapons are modeled to exact references and the maps use realistic props and terrain layouts.
That's surprising as I would have figured the game long dead by now. Don't get me wrong, it's fun (and certainly a far more accurate portrayal of WWI than BF1 ) for a couple of rounds, but the mechanics get monotonous very quickly.
I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.
