Video game: 'Front edge'
2024-02-06
Title refers to the term forward edge of the battle area (FEBA). Rozhin is dazzled by the graphics, but it looks more like an arcade game to me.

He makes a reference to "an abstract mess of a fictional country," a clear reference to Arma 3 and to Arma Reforger. Both of those games are played by Russian players who are well known in Arma 3 circles, and who will likely be playing those game for the next five years,

Video trailer is in Russian and is not translatable, not that the viewer needs a translation.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin.

[ColonelCassad] The state will finance the creation of the game "Front Edge" about the war between the Russian Federation and the United States.
Oooooh, edgy. Still, there’s a market for such things, just as there’s a market for games where Arabs or Iran beating Israel.



According to the footage shown, this is a derivative of the good RTS "Syria. Russian Storm" about the war in Syria. If the new project is at least at the level of the previous one, then it will be quite good.

PS. This game has every chance of becoming the first full-fledged game about the Special Military Operation, if the conflict is not an abstract mess in a fictional country.
