Six Days in Fallujah

Six Days in Fallujah Official Boxart Release Date: June 22, 2023 Developer: Highwire Games Publisher: Victura Platforms: Microsoft Windows Genre: First-Person Shooter

Six Days in Fallujah is a first person, squad based tactical shooter based on the Second Battle of Fallujah set in November 2004. Fallujah is regarded as one of the most brutal urban conflicts since the Battle of Hue City in 1968 during the Vietnam War. Previously announced in 2009 and eventually cancelled, the game was re-announced on February 11, 2021. Like its original incarnation, the game was also made with insight from veterans of the U.S. Marine Corps who actively fought in the battle. It was released in Early Access on June 22, 2023.

The following weapons appear in the video game Six Days in Fallujah:

Overview

Since the game is currently an Early Access title, there's only a select number of weapons available to the player. Some are available exclusively to insurgent NPCs or the Marine armored vehicles present within the AO.
At this time, the game has four roles available to the player which are comprised of:
Team: Squad leader, armed with an M16A4, utilizing an ACOG and an M203 with both HE and smoke grenade shells available.
Ready: Acting as a standard rifleman, also carrying an A4 with the ACOG.
Assist: Specializes in close quarters, uses a Benelli M1014 for breaching doors and room clearing.
Fire: Squad gunner, exclusively armed with the SAW.

USMC/Player Weapons

Colt M16A4

The M16A4 is the hallmark rifle of the Marines. Some include ACOGs, others have the detachable carry handle, all of which come with flashlights. Depending on the kit/role you are playing as, sometimes the magazines are seen downloaded to 28 rounds, others have the full 30.

You can choose to aim with the front sight post. Effectively a quicker way for target acquisition, and less obstructive sight picture in closer engagements.

Mag checking on this variant as well.

M249 Para

An M249 Para is exclusive to the Fire role, using 200 round belt boxes, great for suppressive fire. Unlike most of the weapons, it lacks a flashlight, making it not the most ideal weapon for night missions, or clearing a building under low light conditions.

An SVD can be seen in the hands of a sniper in the minaret tower during the apartment mission. It also can sometimes be seen as part of weapon caches. It's likely that it could be a stand-in for the Al-Kadesiah, the Iraqi produced clone.
