M2H and Blackmill Games have confirmed that "Grappa", the third expansion for WW1 FPS game Isonzo launches tomorrow May 17 for Xbox One, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and PC.

The GRAPPA Expansion takes soldiers to the well-known and much requested Monte Grappa, where the Italians must hold their ground against the Germans attempting to conquer the mountain.

In this update, the mountains and valleys of the Massiccio del Grappa will set the stage for this Offensive. Players will begin with their boots on the ground in the forests, where the Germans must fight their way up Monte Tomba, Castel Cesil and Monte Palon. The final push will be to reach the white peak of Cima Della Mandria. All the while, the Italians must defend their territory and hold the line. Trenches both intact and destroyed, steep climbs through cratered landscapes, and cave systems await both sides of the fight on the battlefield.

During the First World War, Monte Grappa and the surrounding region were all that stood between the German troops and their victory over Italy, and so they gave it their all to try and conquer the region. Historically speaking these attempts were unsuccessful, and now it is up to the players in Isonzo to see if they can succeed where those in the past have failed.

Of course players won’t be joining the battle without new weaponry, with every army gaining access to one additional firearm. The Italians will receive the Revolver Orbea Hermanos - Tettoni 1916, whereas Austro-Hungarian soldiers will be able to make use of the Gasser M1870. Meanwhile, the Germans will get to use the Dreyse M1908. These new guns will become available with the Grappa update.

Isonzo's free Grappa expansion will release tomorrow May 17 on Xbox, PlayStation, Steam, and the Epic Games Store. Just like the previous expansions, the Grappa update will be free. Players can further expand the visual customization options for German troops with the Expedition Units Pack, which will cost $9.99 / €9.99.

Isonzo is available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
