Rising Front is a single-player battle simulator built around large-scale combat across several historical eras. Its central premise is to put the player amid battles with infantry, cavalry, tanks and aircraft, spanning World War I as well as Revolutionary War and Franco-Prussian War line battles. The changing settings set it apart from a game focused only on trench warfare.
Players can fight in first person or command an army from above, directing AI units and building defenses. The battlefield toolkit includes artillery, a procedural cover system and rag-doll physics, while aircraft can provide fighters or bombing runs. Cavalry charges and a variety of vehicles add further ways to engage. Workshop support covers maps, units, weapons and buildables, with a level editor also listed among the game’s features.
Its distinctive appeal lies in combining direct combat with army command and large engagements, so the player-count view should be read alongside the game’s solo focus and broad battlefield design.
