Own developments

Gaijin Entertainment's most successful title is by far War Thunder , with a "Metascore" of 82 according to Metacritic for the Windows version of the game. The good graphic representation of the aerial battles and the convincing replicas of the historical models from the Second World War are particularly emphasized . The unadorned interface is mostly criticized by critics.

Movie

Gaijin brought out the film 28 Gardisten (German: 28 Soldiers - Die Panzerschlacht , Russian: 28 панфиловцев 28 panfilowzew ) in 2016 together with the Libyan Palette Studios . The film tells the story of Ivan Vasilyevich Panfilov as it was told in wartime, ignoring later criticism of the story. The German title suggests a battle between tanks, but the Soviet soldiers in the story and in the film did not have tanks. The film was also funded with the help of crowdfunding .
