The latest Digitalmindsoft Newsletter announces plans to reactivate open beta testing of Men of War: Assault Squad once the official Steam group for the upcoming real-time strategy sequel reaches 20,000 members. They say when the beta resumes after that milestone they will also add the Soviet Union as a playable faction. There's also a new developer update on the game's DMS website talking about progress on the game since its first open beta, covering things like grenade behavior, new minimap features, balance changes on multiplayer maps, and more.
