Six Days in Fallujah was originally announced in 2009. It is a first-person shooter based on the 2004 conflict in Iraq. It was met with much opposition because it is based on modern real-world events. This may not seem like a big deal in 2024 but things were slightly different in the years following 9/11.

After a long hiatus, Six Days is now in Alpha and constantly being updated. Peter Tamte and his team still want to get these stories in front of gamers, and I think we are in a better place now. Six Days in Fallujah has been available for gamers to play for ever a year now but we have a really big update.

You were recommended to play Six Days with a squad of three other players before. In its most recent update, the team at Highwire Games added AI team members. If you’re expecting a Call of Duty experience, that is not what Six Days in Fallujah delivers. Six Days is more of a strategy game with first-person shooter elements. I don’t think this game will be for everyone but it will have its audience.

Let’s examine the game’s current state. Check out the video below, and if you want to skip straight to the interview, the audio is also posted below.
