Highlights

Valiant Hearts: Coming Home, Ubisoft’s sequel to Valiant Hearts: The Great War, is now available on mainstream platforms after being a Netflix Games exclusive.
The game expands on its predecessor, following unsung war heroes with distinctive visuals and gameplay.
Valiant Hearts: The Collection offers both titles in the series for $24.99, showcasing WW1 battles and the Harlem Hellfighters.

Valiant Hearts: Coming Home has just shadow dropped across consoles and PC. Valiant Hearts: Coming Home is the sequel to Ubisoft’s award-winning puzzle adventure game Valiant Hearts: The Great War. While Coming Home received generally favorable reviews, the title went under the radar of many gamers due to its exclusivity to mobile devices at the time of its initial release. However, with its availability on mainstream platforms, Coming Home now has the potential to reach a much wider audience.

Previously released in February 2023 as a Netflix Games exclusive, Coming Home expands on the narrative of its predecessor and once again follows the story of four unsung war heroes, featuring a mix of both familiar faces and new characters. Sporting distinctive graphic novel-style visuals and simple but thought-provoking gameplay, Coming Home will pull away at players’ heartstrings and showcase some of the most important battles of World War 1 at the same time.

The Best Ubisoft Games Ever, Ranked

Ubisoft has been criticized for relying on franchises, but the gaming company has released many quality video games. Here are the highest-rated.

Valiant Hearts: Coming Home is No Longer a Mobile Exclusive

Valiant Hearts: Coming Home can now be played on PlayStation and Xbox consoles, as well as PC and Nintendo Switch. Valiant Hearts: The Collection, a bundle that contains both titles in the series can also be purchased by those who are looking to experience everything the WW1 games have to offer. Valiant Hearts: Coming Home can be purchased for $14.99, while The Collection is available for $24.99.

Ubisoft also posted a short launch trailer for the title featuring gameplay snippets of the legendary US WW1 regiment, the Harlem Hellfighters, who are heroically portrayed in Valiant Hearts: Coming Home. The African American infantry unit had a significant role in raising morale among the troops and also contributed to the development of jazz as a musical genre. The Harlem Hellfighters were also known for their commitment to fighting back against the discrimination of African American soldiers in the army.

While many video games that showcase the tragedies of war are available on the market, few have managed to portray the struggles of World War 1 as well as Valiant Hearts: The Great War and Coming Home have managed to. The narrative of the games unfolds through the perspectives of four ordinary characters who try their best to survive once they find themselves amidst the hellish chaos of the Great War. Combining fiction with the heart-crushing realities of war can turn out to be a great source for learning more about real-life war history.
