Full Metal Sergeant 2

The most brutal sergeant ever is back to torment and transform wimps into elite soldiers.

In Full Metal Sergeant 2, you’re thrust back into the boots of a no-nonsense drill sergeant tasked with shaping an untrained group of recruits into elite soldiers, ready for the harsh realities of combat. Developed by CarloC (Full Metal Sergeant, The Final Boss, and Until The Last Plane), this strategy simulation game, set for a 2025 release, enhances its predecessor’s formula with more intense challenges, revamped systems, and deeper tactical layers.

Full Metal Sergeant 2

At its core, the game spans a 12-week period where you’re in charge of overseeing a military training camp. Each week, you’ll spend training points to subject your recruits to rigorous drills aimed at improving their physical and mental fortitude. But it’s not just about brute force. You’ll also work to eliminate negative traits and mold them into specialized units, ranging from snipers to machine gunners. Your ultimate goal is to ensure they’re battle-ready, and that means managing every aspect of their growth—discipline, morale, and tactical prowess.

The most significant upgrade in this sequel is the reworked turn-based combat system, where every soldier’s specialization plays a pivotal role in determining victory on the battlefield. Soldiers gain unique abilities depending on their class, and it’s up to you to use their strengths strategically to overcome enemies. With the addition of a refined skill tree, you’ll have more control over how your squad evolves, unlocking key abilities that are essential for their survival.

In addition to its combat system, Full Metal Sergeant 2 features improved pixel art, new animations, and of course, even more of the sergeant’s loud, abrasive personality. The drill sergeant’s bark is bigger and bolder, giving the game a humorous but hard-edged tone.

If you’re looking for a management game where every decision matters, Full Metal Sergeant 2 delivers a gritty, strategic experience that challenges you to balance training, resource management, and combat preparation. Below, you can find the overview, screens, and announcement trailer.
