War Hospital players can now extend their gaming experience with X-Ray DLC. Already available on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S and PC, this new content allows players to help the famous Marie Curie repair her medical equipment, while still at the helm of a field hospital during the First World War.

With an emphasis on narrative, the War Hospital X-Ray DLC allows players to take over the management of a field hospital for an additional chapter, representing around 5 hours of gameplay. In the story imagined by Polish studio Brave Lamb, players must help Maria Skłodowska (Marie Curie) gather the resources needed to repair her “Petite Curie”, one of the mobile surgical units she invented. By moving as close as possible to the fighting, she democratized the use of X-ray radiography.

“We decided to include Maria Skłodowska in the game’s plot because it fulfills the essence of War Hospital, which is to save human lives. We’re also proud to be able to include a Polish accent to our game. At the time of the First World War, our country did not exist on the map of Europe. It therefore did not benefit from the influence associated with this phenomenon,” comments Michał Dziwniel, Brave Lamb Studio Director.

In War Hospital, you’ll find the following features:

  • Documented gameplay, thanks in particular to a partnership with London’s Imperial War Museum.
  • A perfect balance between real-time strategy and survival gameplay
  • Simultaneous management of numerous resources with different uses
  • Choices with short- and long-term consequences
  • A system of morals impacting the behavior of care teams
  • Individual stories with non-Manichean implications
  • Humanized units with varied functions and impacts
  • A real scenario with multiple ends
  • A system of trenches that need to be supplied with recovered soldiers to hold out against the enemy
  • A game that can be played with keyboard/mouse or joystick
  • X-Ray DLC based on the character Marie Curie
