Pre-Orders for Korea. IL2 Series are Now Open!

[LukeFF]

Dear friends,  

We're glad to announce that our giant project is approaching its conclusion: the Early Access is scheduled for Spring 2026, and the official release for Q2 2026. Welcome to the new Korea. IL2 Series site: https://il2-korea.com

For our team, Korea is far more than just another project in the IL-2 series. It is an opportunity to bring to life one of the most intense, technologically pivotal, and yet often overlooked conflicts in history. The history we must remember. We must know the heroes, the aircraft, and the stories. That is the core of our passion for this project. We are not merely building a game; we are creating a digital museum dedicated to preserving and experiencing this incredible chapter of our past. 

Pre-orders are open, and the pre-order discount is at its greatest right now. As we move towards the release, the price will gradually increase to the full price. We also offer the Founders Edition, intended for flight sim enthusiasts who would like to support further development. It includes all pre-order content plus Year 1 DLC access, which will bring five additional aircraft and new gameplay features to be revealed later.

Can't wait.

Will it be available on Steam after release? And/or can we transfer the keys on Steam later, if we pre-order now?
If the game is released on Steam later on, will it include Steam features such as achievements or items?

I don't pre order anything anymore, not for any game. I don't like these different editions that developers put out there, and that goes for all types and genres of games... I'll wait and see what happens when it launches and how it really plays, especially this 'commander' aspect in the career they are introducing.

I'm happy it's coming to fruition however... I've waited this long for it to turn up, I can wait a bit longer for the proper release and reports on how it is to play.

I’m glad we’re nearing launch, but don’t think I can justify the Founder’s Edition. It isn’t clear if it will come to Steam, you’re preordering an expansion that we know nothing about, and we still haven’t seen system specs or gameplay footage showing a dogfight. I might let it cook a while longer.

Awesome. I love the way you folks offered the Founder's Edition with the DLC options. Thank you!!!

[Artfactial]

Fantastic, congrats!
And yes, to be clear, the store page pre-order does not include and will not transfer to Steam?:)

[Yankee_One]

I'm in!

Founders edition ordered!

“Black Friday” What a fitting day to launch the preorder for IL-2 Series: Korea. Happy to purchase and support the devs.  I think it will be time to get a new high end gaming rig when Early Release starts.

Unable to log in on the main site using the same email and password for the forum, what gives?

[Hoss]

Bitchin..... made my order... now the wait...

 

[Dash,Polder]

Thought the old site and new weren't suppose to be linked, it's confused between my new user name and old since they're both using the same email.  

Beware if you changed your user parameters joining the new site, it doesn't like it.

Man this is crazy, the site can't handle my handle, it can only deal with 15 character name max, get your stuff sorted please.  Why does the forum allow it?

Oh, fantastic! Could you link to that comment?:D

[MilonRouge]

Hypeeee!!! Founders Edition has been ordered

Loving the trailer as well \o/

[Reisen]

So, what do we think the DLC will be? They’ve teased a carrier-focused expansion, right? I’d be curious to know which 5 planes that would include. 

[FilMit]

I’m probably writing in the wrong place, but I couldn’t find a suitable topic. Is this forum now bilingual? Or is this a glitch in my browser?
Okay, we are Russian, we can easily translate from English. But what about others?

[Jade_Monkey]

Excited to support the team with Founders Edition! I’ve taken a long break from flight sims, but I always planned to come back for Korea.

There are a lot of features that I wanted in GB, that will be in Korea. If the devs are reading this, i would love to see some more options for briefings in scripted campaigns. The ability to add multiple images, or embed audio/video, or separate briefing content in relevant sections/tabs.
