What does the gameplay in Foxhole look like? As a player, you are thrown into a kind of parallel world where world wars have never come to an end. The setting of Foxhole, with its vehicles and weapons, resembles the times of the First and Second World Wars.
In the fictional world, a permanent online war is raging. So even if you log out, battles will continue to be fought – by other players.
Because instead of NPCs, players take care of all war aspects in Foxhole, such as the production of ammunition or supplying the front with goods.

The logisticians in the war MMO have also gone on strike because supplying the front became increasingly strenuous. In the end, they got a train system in Foxhole.

Teamplay is also at the forefront. Communication within the group is essential to turn the battle in your favor. You have a permanent character in the game, allowing you to make a name for yourself within your faction through your actions.

Players praise the gameplay and the experiences they had in Foxhole:
- Migacz: ‘ […] It’s not graphically the 8th wonder of the world, but this game is a great war simulator. You won’t be a hero in this game. No one will be. War is a massive process that requires hundreds of people. Someone is shooting, another heals them, the next helps with artillery fire, while their friend drives around, someone carries grenades, someone has to take them to the front with a truck, another has to produce them, the next must extract and refine resources for it, someone has to plan it and say how many and where they need to be delivered and so on… I love every aspect of this masterpiece.’
- PhoebeBridgers: ‘I am writing this review despite the low number of hours (I am sure I will play more after I submit this review), but I and random strangers just took a bridge and it was so cool. 10/10 would get run over by a tank again.’
How much does Foxhole cost? On Steam, you currently pay €24.99 for the shooter (As of: January 15, 2023).
