Silent Hunter III

Silent Hunter III is a World War II submarine game in which you command a U-boat, lead its crew and attack Allied convoys and warships. Its campaign follows your naval career through an unscripted, non-linear war, shaped by the decisions you make as commander.

U-boats and combat

You can take command of Type II, VII, IX and XXI submarines. Hide silently below escort ships, launch torpedoes or surface to attack with your deck gun. The game features historically accurate submarines, ships and aircraft.

The submarine at sea

The environment includes 3D water modeling, day and night cycles, changing weather, detailed U-boat interiors and audio that contributes to the atmosphere of submarine warfare.

Command and crew

Your crew takes orders and develops based on the results of each patrol. A naval academy tutorial teaches the basics, and adjustable realism settings let you tailor the simulation to your preferred level of challenge.

Multiplayer

Up to eight players can play cooperatively over a LAN.
