‘Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter’ is a realistic interactive WW2 destroyer simulation game taking place in the Atlantic as escort groups battle to defend allied convoys against Nazi U-Boat wolfpacks.

In ‘Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter’ you take command of a Fletcher-class destroyer and lead an escort group on convoy protection missions in the Atlantic.

The game features realistic anti-submarine warfare using authentic instruments and attack procedures that give you a realistic experience in ‘simulation mode.’ This provides a more realistic milsim experience that requires the use of complex instruments and real-life procedures. 

Alternatively, you could play in ‘tactical mode,’ which allows for a more casual action-filled experience. This is aimed at players who are after a realistic anti-submarine warfare experience, without the hassle of focusing on boring procedures and weapons operations.

Both game modes will fill you with the thrill of commanding an anti-submarine destroyer while managing an escort group as you battle to keep the ships under your protection safe against the deadly U-Boat wolfpacks hunting them.

You will be required to make split-second tactical decisions during the heat of battle that can determine the outcome of the entire battle/mission. According to the developers, the game “goes to great lengths to appeal to fans of realism” while still being fun and exciting for more casual players.

‘Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter’ is developed by ‘Iron Wolf Studio S.A.’ The game is scheduled for release on Steam in September 2022.
