    ABOUT THIS GAME
    Hunt, hide and kill as you take command of U.S. submarines and crews and navigate the treacherous waters of the Pacific during WWII.
    Silent Hunter, the industry-leading naval warfare simulation franchise for over a decade, returns to its roots with next-generation graphical realism, immersive gameplay, innovative crew evolution and more action than ever before.
    Developed by the same Ubisoft team that delivered Silent Hunter 3, the "king of sub games", to worldwide critical acclaim, the 2007 installment offers the most memorable, accessible and empowering submarine simulation experience ever.
    Hollywood Blockbuster experience: Lifelike graphics and spectacular audio/visual effects offer an incredibly immersive gaming experience. Witness the historical accuracy and the amazing attention to detail from the breathtaking Pacific settings to the more than 75 authentic-looking war machines such as the U.S. Gato class submarine, the Japanese battleship Yamato and the H6K flying boat.
    Large Scale Naval Engagements: Epic naval engagements can be witnessed by players either firsthand or via radio messages and orders from high command.
    Innovative crew evolution: Earn upgrades and experience to guide the evolution path of crewmembers, making your men the most effective naval force in the Pacific theater.
    Immersive single player gameplay: Diverse mission objectives and events combined with unique rewards make each campaign a new experience. Commandeer various U.S. submarines and progress your career as a naval officer via improved dynamic campaigns in Career Mode, or dive into 'instant actions' and single patrols for a quick fight.
    Addictive Online New Adversarial Mode: Join forces with up to 8 friends via LAN or 4 via internet in either cooperative or adversarial gameplay modes. Scripted and generated mission types allow for epic online battles and unlimited replayability.
    Scalable learning experience: Selectable difficulty levels allow players to choose how challenging of a simulation to play.
    Easy to control: An upgraded and streamlined interface makes moving around the submarine and controlling it much easier than ever before.
    Please note that the online features for this game are no longer supported. The Multiplayer mode / Co-op mode will no longer be accessible.

    I wish the 'Cutie' wasn't so overpowered in this game. Its warhead was only 95 lbs. of TPX explosive; which is 1/4th the of what the Mk-14 had. And since it homes in on ship propellers, a Cutie would rarely sink a ship, but rather cripple or outright immobilize it.

    Fantastic episode taff, best seen in ages.. wiping out those destroyers not only makes the sea safer for friendly submariners but the satisfaction when you kill the hunter.. no better feeling. Those cruisers sunk, truly amazing job done and there was no better in regards of a wonderful sight, sending two of the enemy's proudest cruisers to the seabed with those destroyers.. truly a jewel in the crown moment. The imperials will make sure to cover this one up, and will no doubt be fast to spin a false story, either way the enemy got a well deserved broken nose and black eye in this one, fantastic work. Awesome episode, that was hitting the enemy right where it hurts, true warrior skill.. you really let the enemy have it. The top Navy brass should be proud of you in this one, that shows how the US navy is coming back with a vengeance, keep it up and well done mate. Love this series.. one of the best ever seen 👏👍
