Delta Force has returned to the gaming scene after a long break, bringing back the iconic series with a free-to-play, team-based experience that leverages modern technology. Team Jade decided to develop a new campaign called Black Hawk Down, inspired by Delta Force's 2003 entry in the franchise and Ridley Scott's 2001 film. The developer had initially planned to release the DLC earlier but had to delay it to meet the quality standards Team Jade was aiming for. However, just a day before the campaign’s official release, the developer made an unexpected decision.

After the complications Delta Force’s Black Hawk Down campaign faced, Team Jade has announced that it will be a free-to-play DLC. The campaign launches on February 21, and everyone will be able to play it without spending any money. Team Jade explained that this decision stems from the studio’s previous commitment to making all playable content free. However, in a Twitter post, the developer also emphasized that this is a “gesture of gratitude” to players who have supported the game from the very beginning.

Delta Force: Black Hawk Down Campaign Will Be Free to Play

This announcement understandably came as a surprise to players, who flooded Delta Force’s Twitter post with positive reactions. Comments range from excitement over being able to play the game for free to fans expressing hope that other AAA games will follow suit. With Delta Force’s Black Hawk Down campaign set to launch in less than 24 hours, the developer has provided more details in a Steam blog post.

Addressing FAQs, Team Jade noted that the campaign is designed for co-op play, though solo players can take it on if they choose. However, the developer warns that playing solo will be highly challenging and advises tackling the campaign with a squad of four other Delta Force operators, as it was designed with co-op in mind.

For PC players curious about different gameplay options, Team Jade mentioned that, as of now, the game only supports keyboard and mouse controls, though controller support is planned for a future patch. The Black Hawk Down campaign promises to be a rewarding co-op experience packed with content, and players can look forward to diving in at no cost.
