RAID: World War II - Update 17
Hey Raiders!
Welcome to this week’s patch!
Below you can find the details of the changes:
Ithaca
As announced on Monday so when you update you will be able to get the Ithaca!
The Ithaca unlocks at level 23 for the demolition and at level 28 for the insurgent classes.
Grenades
Updated the grenade stats to give each grenade an archetype. Designs around grenade archetypes revolve around passive and defensive. This is only the first round of update grenade stats, so feedback is very much welcome!
XP Bonus
We added the XP bonus loot drops back into the game with the original values.
Contest Winner
We added the last contest winners name into the camp.
Note:
We aren’t ready for releasing the STG scope disable fix just yet, but it should be in the next patch.

Hey Raiders!
Welcome to the weekly newsletter!
Ithaca
Thanks to everyone that voted! This week we will add the Ithaca into the game for you all to enjoy!
STG Sight Fix
We noticed that some of you still had the STG sight not being disable-able. So, we looked into that and the fix will be in this week’s patch.
XP bonus added back
There were a few posts about the desire for the XP bonus to be added back, so we have adjusted the statistics so that it will be in each of the loot boxes on the end of mission reward screen.
Update on the Kelly Map
Thanks to everyone that joined our Friday stream, but for all those that didn’t, here are some updates of what we showed and wanted to. These will all be in the game when the new Kelly level is launched!
Work in progress screenshots
Stealth
We will tweak the suspicion phase so that enemies don’t instantly call out to other enemies and go into alert mode, this way you will be able to take down enemies and have a better chance at Stealth in levels.

The offers are still on and will be until the 19th for anyone who wants some time to think about it.

Ending on the new Countdown raid, and grenade stats are some of the things that will be in on Wednesday.
XP and Gold Rewards
We are looking into further tweaks on this system to refine it, and we hope to have more updates ready in a patch soon. One thing we want to accomplish is a decent rate of rewards across all levels, in particular with Gold, but we just wanted to hint on that, and you’ll find out more on the reasons for the Gold rewards soon!
Level Code Named: Kelly
We haven’t shown any gameplay of this level yet, but its coming along nicely, and we will soon be going into a closed beta! We did announce the competition winner from our shotgun competition to be invited for the Kelly level Beta and we will have a Stream in the not so distant future for that!

If you have a favourite, we would love to hear about it! For all you guys that didn’t know, the in-development level codenamed: Kelly will have stealth as an intricate part of its level design!

The Raid Gang are in an all-out action-packed mission to infiltrate and cause maximum destruction on an early prototype missile bunker which holds a V2 rocket!
New Primary Weapon
There were many requests for the Lee Enfield weapon and we thought it was time to put this amazing bolt action magazine fed rifle into RAID: World War II for you all to enjoy!
The Lee Enfield is unlocked at level 33 for the Recon class.
New Secondary Weapon
You now have even more ways to blast Nazis with this handy sawn-off shotgun! Perfect for those close quarter take outs, why not try it in the Countdown mission!
The Sawn-off Shotgun is unlocked at level 8 for Demolition Class and at level 11 for all other classes.
New Grenade
As we showcased, the Mills Grenade (or Mills bomb as some would call it) is a classic, and an early fragmentation grenade used by the British Army during world war I. The mills is a short ranged large damage grenade.
The Mills Grenade Unlocks at level 31 for all classes.
New outfit
We love this Bomber jacket and pants set, and we hope to see lots of Raiders wearing the latest in military fashion during these cold days. The jackets are made with the very best leather and lined with sheepskin!

RAID: World War II - Update 15 ( Feb 8th ) Content reveal day 3!
Raiders!
Welcome to day 3 of the announcement plan up until Tomorrows release! Not long to go now before you get your hand on this juicy content update!
Countdown Raid
What was codenamed Silo for a while now, has an official name! Introducing “Countdown”!
It all takes place in a top-secret Nazi bunker where they are developing the latest in devastating weaponry… the V2 rocket. This is something the world hasn’t seen yet, and the Raid Gang are going to make sure the world will never see it.
The countdown raid comes with something that is completely new to us, it is built out of multiple levels, and certain parts will change completely from play through to play through. Not only the layout, but also the objective in those parts will vary.
We really hope you enjoy this new map tomorrow! and that you look forward to new ones as much as we do!
Update time
The update will be live tomorrow ( February 8th) and it will be free for anyone who owns the base game. Tomorrow we will also post the patch notes, with other fixes that are done and that will go into the game in this update.

RAID: World War II - Update 15 ( Feb 8th ) Content reveal day 2!
Hey Raiders!
Welcome to day 2 of the RAID: World War II content reveal!
Yesterday you got to see a new jacket we love, and the classic Mills grenade. Today you see more as we show you what’s going to be in the Thursday 8th release!
Sawn-off Shotgun
We absolutely love this secondary weapon we are adding into the game. It really is a close quarter master especially in tight corridors. The sawn-off shotgun just feels so satisfying when aiming at a Nazi head and saying “BLAMMO”!
Lee Enfield
We did see the countless amount of times that the community asked for the Lee Enfield and we thought it was time to oblige!
The Lee Enfield is a bolt actioned rifle that is magazine fed, and was the standard rifle of the British army. As we were testing this internally I can tell you our headshot count went satisfyingly up!
More tomorrow!
Tomorrow we will continue the content reveals! Come back then for more!
RAID: World War II - Update 15 ( Feb 8th ) Content reveal day 1!
Hey Raiders!
It’s an exciting week on the run up to the 8th (Thursday) major content launch, and as promised here is the first of the content reveals which will be out in the build this week!
Today, we have 2 things that we want to highlight, both will be available when the update goes live on Thursday.
The Mills grenade
This classic grenade was in one of our earlier competitions and we thought what a shame it would be to not bring it into RAID: World War II. A classic and easily recognized grenade, it was one of the first / earliest fragmentation grenades. Created by the British army and was used in World War I, it is continued to be used to today in its various iterations.
The Bomber Jacket
We went with a classic grenade, and what a better follow up then adding a classic jacket (and pants) into RAID: World War II. A classic for any high flyer with its leather coating and wool. This jacket became an icon symbolizing adventure.
More tomorrow!
Tomorrow we will continue the content reveals! Come back then for more!
