TEHRAN -- Iranian game studio
Sefid Designers is back with an exciting new installment in their acclaimed air combat series, Shahin.
Titled “Shahin: True Promise”, this latest release promises a gripping blend of story-driven missions and daily challenges centered on the highly charged “Operation True Promise” — a narrative deeply rooted in regional wars involving Iran and Israel.
Building on over a decade of experience in interactive digital content, Sefid Designers have carved out a strong reputation both domestically and internationally. Their original Shahin, launched in 2017, attracted over four million Iranian players thanks to its immersive flight simulation mechanics, diverse mission design, and compelling narrative, earning it accolades including “Best Game of the Year” and recognition as a standout knowledge-based title.
“Shahin: True Promise” serves as a standalone mid-version between the original and the upcoming Shahin 2. While it revisits and expands upon the storyline from the original game, it also introduces a fresh campaign spotlighting the “True Promise” military operation. Players can expect a range of story modes, daily missions, and progression systems with ranks reflecting military advancement — all designed to offer a culturally resonant gaming experience.
One of the game’s unique features is its built-in digital encyclopedia, which educates players on Iran’s defense capabilities and commemorates fallen commanders and martyrs of the war. The game’s online components also support competitive leagues and multiplayer battles, enhancing replayability and community engagement.
From a technical standpoint, the developers have upgraded their game engine and 3D graphics, alongside integrating AI-driven flight simulation that draws on real-world data. Online connectivity leverages Iran’s native Qased infrastructure, ensuring smooth and secure network play.
This latest chapter in the Shahin saga aims to fill a niche for domestic gamers seeking alternatives to Western franchises like Ace Combat and Modern Warplanes, while also targeting international markets in the MENA and CIS regions.
