If Valiant Hearts: The Great War left a mark on you, there’s a new narrative-driven wartime adventure heading to Steam that deserves your attention. Letters of War is an emotional 2D story-rich experience inspired by real-life family memories and developed by a small indie team across Kazakhstan and the UK. It’s now officially announced with a teaser trailer and live Steam page.
Much like its spiritual predecessor, Letters of War doesn’t focus on gunplay or explosions. Instead, it tells the deeply personal story of Liam, a British carpenter who volunteers to fight during World War II, and his daughter Rosie, who waits at home, clinging to the letters he sends her from the front lines.
The game shifts perspectives between the chaos of war and the quiet resilience of home life. Players will relive historic battles like the Normandy landings and the brutal conflict at Monte Cassino, all through the lens of a father’s love and a daughter’s hope.
It’s not just another war story — Letters of War aims to preserve memory and emotion, turning a piece of family history into something that resonates universally. The art style echoes Valiant Hearts, but the narrative is its own heartfelt journey into sacrifice, courage, and the threads that bind us even when torn by war.
The game is still in development, but you can wishlist it now on Steam.
