Controversial shooter Six Days in Fallujah: Laptop compatibility prediction.

After more than a decade since its reveal, Six Days in Fallujah, a video game based on real urban combat between American Marines and Iraqis in 2004, is set to release under first-time publisher Victura. The game has faced controversy over its representation of the Iraq War and whether it can accurately portray both sides. Victura president Peter Tamte defends the game, stating that it will tackle controversial aspects of the battle and include interviews with Iraqi civilians. The game's focus is on the costs of war, not just gunplay, and aims to broaden players' perspectives on the conflict.

Six Days in Fallujah finally launches after 18 years of controversy.

Controversial tactical shooter video game, Six Days in Fallujah, set in the Iraq War, has been given a surprise early access release for Windows PC via Steam. The game includes four co-operative four-player missions set in urban maps that are generated procedurally every time the game is played. Additional cooperative missions are planned for the early access period, including “story campaign missions recreating real stories from the Second Battle of Fallujah from the perspective of both coalition forces and Iraqi civilians.” The game was first proposed in 2009 but was harshly criticized, causing Konami to pull out of the project. Highwire Games picked up the project in 2021.
