About the Game

The main character in Velvet Assassin is inspired by real-life World War II British secret agent, Violette Szabo. The game's Violette Summer worked in a beaty salon and lived a basically average life. Then war broke out and she moved to London to help in weapons production. Attracted by the beautiful and athletic brunette, the military's Secret Services recruited Violette to serve in MI6 as a spy. Her new job is to sneak sneak behind enemy lines and single-handedly hinder the German war machine.
Violette has access to 10 different authentic WWII-era weapons, which she will use to carry out her missions set in 12 levels modeled after real-life locations.

- MG-42
- A machine gun developed for and used by Nazi Germany in 1942. Known for its durability, reliability, and how easy it was to reload.
- MP-40
- A submachine gun used by German paratroopers and squad leaders. Has a low rate of fire and low recoil, making it more manageable than other submachine guns and allowing the user to operate it with one hand.
- Shotgun
- Used by both sides primarily to guard prisoner of war camps, and was popular with underground militia forces in France and Belgium. Easy to use even with little training.
- STG-44
- This assault rifle developed by Nazi Germany was one of the first of its kind to be widely used. Named by Adolf Hitler, it was first used on the Eastern Front against Russia. Useful both in long range combat and at close range when fitted with a bayonet.
- Flamethrower
- This handheld or vehicle mounted weapon impeded its wielder's movement and made him a prime target for snipers. Flamethrower duty was often given to soldiers who had misbehaved or shown insubordination.
- Grenade
- Used primarily to attack enemy bunkers or to flush enemies from cover so they could be finished off with regular weapons.
- Colt
- A .45 calibre semi-automatic handgun was standard issue to soldiers in the U.S. Armed Forces.
- G-43
- A semi-automatic German rifle that was popular due to its weight and reliability. Fitted with a scope, the Gewehr 43 makes an accurate sniper rifle, but it is not very useful in close combat.
- Luger
- This 9mm semi-automatic pistol was standard issue to German Armed Forces and was primarily used by officers. Allied forces often traded cigarettes or rations in order to possess one of these firearms.
- Luger Carbine
- A 9mm long-barrelled pistol that could be transformed into a rifle by attaching a 32-round drum, similar to American Tommy guns. This made the weapon ideal for SS troops during blitzkrieg lightning attacks because they could carry one weapon instead of two.
