It didn’t take long for Classified: France ‘44 to add to its base game with some expansions, and the second DLC touched down back in May 2024. This one offers up some handy new gear in the form of an Agent Pack, which is available to purchase individually or as part of the Season Pass.

Among the new gear that aims to assist you in your covert ops are a new Special Ops map-“Radar,” as well as the new Winchester 1912 weapon, the new Beretta “Compact” weapon variant, and the new Female Resistance Agent clothing set. There are also two new Special Ops missions—“Over Hill Under Hill” and “Make Every Kill Count.” All in all, it’s a compact mix of cosmetics and practical in-game items, and the individual price for it and other DLC sets comes in at $5.99 a pop.

If you’re hankering for more content after that, the $19.99 Season Pass covers the first four DLC packs, so there’s more to come, some of which may be out by the time this issue is in your hands.

We first covered Classified: France ‘44 ahead of its eventual launch in March 2024. The turn-based strategy game puts players in command of a special-ops team of Allied commandos and French resistance fighters in the months leading up to the June 1944 Allied Invasion of France. Since launch, it has garnered overall “Mostly Positive”reviews on Steam, and is also available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Classified: France ‘44 features a morale system that highlights the impact of every single shot on your team and the enemy, and the nature of the tough, authentic combat encourages the use of stealth tactics to make it through in one piece. It’s an interesting and strategic outing, with ambushing your enemy in place as one of the best ways to succeed in an increasingly hostile environment. Further expansions were promised prior to the main game’s launch, and it’s nice to see the team at developer Absolutely Games continue to deliver on said promise.
