## Description

Valiant Hearts: Coming Home is a Netflix-exclusive WWI adventure game, a stylish follow-up to the BAFTA-winning Valiant Hearts: The Great War. Players become unsung heroes as two brothers navigate the trenches, encountering new allies and healing the wounded through an animated graphic-novel experience across sea, air, and land.

Experience a mix of exploration, action, and puzzles as you guide four unsung heroes (and their canine companion) through historically inspired locations. Solve challenges, sneak through enemy lines, fly above the chaos, and learn about World War I with authentic imagery and key events like the Harlem Hellfighters. This title, developed by Ubisoft and Old Skull Games, blends storytelling with educational history while delivering a deeply emotional, cinematic experience.
