Matrix Games has released a new patch for "Battlefront," bringing the turn-based strategy game by Strategic Studies Group to version 1.02.

"This latest update brings two improvements to the PBEM system to assure that the World War II-style player vs. player action runs in tip top shape.

David Heath, Director of Operations at Matrix Games, said of the new update, “Both Matrix Games and SSG pride themselves on attention to detail and a commitment to excellence. We hope gamers who are already fans of Battlefront will enjoy this new update and benefit from its improvements.”

Battlefront is a World War II battalion-level combat game based on the design philosophy of the popular Decisive Battles of World War II series. In Battlefront, gamers will have the opportunity to wage historic operations like Saipan, Market Garden, Novorossisk, and Gazala the way they see fit. Players will have realistic control over their soldiers, with a tactical scale just large enough to make a telling difference in the strategic picture."

The 18.9MB patch is available to download at 3dgamers, FileFront, FileShack, SI, or Worthplaying.
