11 Bit Studios, creator of the multiplatform strategy game Anomaly: Warzone Earth, announced that its next project is This War of Mine, a survival game that explores the brutal reality of civilian life during wartime.

This War of Mine challenges players to keep a group of civilians alive as armed soldiers lay siege to their city. Gameplay is split between day and night sequences; players scavenge the surrounding area for supplies at night, while shelter upgrades, item crafting, and other strategic options are available while survivors hide from patrolling snipers during the day.

This War of Mine is due to launch this year for PC platforms and mobile devices.
