Dear Pilots,
1C Game Studios, in partnership with Team Fusion Simulations, is proud to announce the release of a newly updated and improved BLITZ edition of the IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover!
As announced previously, 1CGS has partnered with Team Fusion Simulations to codify and improve their previous mod work and make it an official part of Dover. The release of BLITZ is part of the overall plan to release additional products for what we are calling the Dover Series. The Dover Series will co-exist beside our Great Battles Series. The two series will not be compatible with each other and likely cover different theaters of the war for the foreseeable future, but together both series will give you many options for gameplay and awesome content to enjoy.
How to Get BLITZ?
All current owners of Cliffs of Dover Classic have received BLITZ for FREE in their Steam Library. You just need to install to play.
If you don't already own Cliffs of Dover you can purchase from the Steam store or from our Official Web Store. If you buy from the Sturmovik web store, you will receive a Steam key that must be activated on Steam.
IMPORTANT NOTE: BLITZ is only compatible with Steam and cannot be run without Steam due to its original design.
From December 14th until January 4th BLITZ will be on sale for 25% OFF. The regular price after the special will be $24.99.
Buy from STEAM STORE
Buy from OFFICIAL WEB STORE
Of course, purchases made in the Official Web Store go directly to the developers increasing much needed revenue.
What's Included?
Team Fusion has spent the past several years improving and fixing issues in the original Cliffs of Dover since it's initial release. Their work has greatly improved performance and fixed serious issues. Earlier this year, 1CGS gave the source code to TFS allowing them to further improve the title. Their work is now officially a commercial product and no longer just a mod. Below is some of what is included in BLITZ.
