Hello, dear steamgifters. This weekend I felt some nostalgia about WW2 games. So, I'd like to play some WW2 theme singleplayer shooters, but I'd like to play it on Wehrmacht side. Can you suggest some? And please, don't suggest multiplayer games.

Do you play games on Wehrmacht side?

Not an uninteresting question but i don't see in FPS. If you want to play a tank driver, there is a short BF5 war story. Otherwise... a submarine crew in silent hunter ? There is a full german campaign in company of heroes 1 but it's obviously not a shooter either.

Or they suggest some here too :
https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/7/350542145699159243/ Maybe this one is a shooter ?
https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/3l8f8t/are_there_any_single_player_wwii_fps_games_where/ And quotes : "Red Orchestra 2 has a campaign where you can play as the Germans. Really short though." / "Brothers in Arms: Earned in Blood (2nd game in the series) featured a few single player missions where you play as Germans"

I know, that there are at least one SP shooter, where you play as German soldier. Unfortunately I forgot the name of this game, because when I tried to play it, it had too high reqs for my PC.

It's probably not this one (it's old and reviews look like mixed) but did you check the link above from steam forum ? There was a player who was advising this one :

I don't know a game that lets you play as German, but otherwise CoD: WoW was a great game imo

The only WW2 game I can think of where you can play as the Germans is Iron Storm (1995), but that's a turn-based tactics game, not a shooter.

The historical FPS where you can play the Germans: Verdun and Tannenberg. But both of them are from the WW1.

Sorry I forgot to mention , what important to me is the atmosphere, not the character. It's my priority and this is my comment . I wonder what kinda difference there would be in game when you play as a german person, just if the game is bad ? I don't think you can ever understand what i'm trying to mean but anyway. cheers.

Sniper elite is WW2 and in Sniper Elite 4 you can shoot Hitler in the nuts.

Pretty sure there aren't any SP FPS games like that (other than Red Orchestra 2,but its SP campaigns are basically a long tutorial for MP).
I suppose there's the next best thing(kinda)-Necrovision:Lost Company.Its set in WWI on the western front and you play as a german.

I see some of the more popular games have already been mentioned - the excellent Verdun + Tannenberg (WWI), Red Orchestra 2, the Silent Hunter series (submarine warfare). If we're talking MP games it makes sense to add Day of Infamy to the list - it's even bundled right now :)

A few others in different genres:

  • Day of Defeat + Day of Defeat: Source
  • IL-2 Sturmovik: 1946
  • IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad
  • IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey (console only)
  • Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts
