musket.pro was founded in 2020 by a team of history enthusiasts and FPS developers who wanted to create a realistic, tactical shooter that honors historical warfare while delivering engaging multiplayer gameplay. Based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, our team of 14 developers, historians, and designers combines expertise in game mechanics, historical research, and user experience to craft an authentic 18th-century battle simulation.
Our flagship game, Musket: Battlefield Chronicles, is a historical FPS that recreates iconic battles from the Revolutionary War, Napoleonic Wars, and other 18th-century conflicts. The game features realistic weapons (e.g., muskets, cannons, bayonets), period-accurate uniforms, and detailed historical maps based on real battlefields. Players can join teams (e.g., British Redcoats vs. American Patriots) and engage in tactical multiplayer matches that emphasize teamwork, strategy, and historical accuracy. What sets us apart? We work with historical consultants to ensure every aspect of the game—from weapon mechanics to uniform details—is historically accurate. We also prioritize tactical gameplay over fast-paced action, rewarding players who communicate and coordinate with their teams.
We foster a community of history buffs and tactical gamers. Musket: Battlefield Chronicles hosts monthly historical reenactment events, where players can participate in scripted battles that mirror real historical events. Our forums and Discord server are active spaces for players to discuss history, share strategy tips, and connect with the team. We also publish a blog with historical facts, developer insights, and behind-the-scenes content about the game’s research and development.
Since launching, musket.pro has grown to over 160,000 registered players and has received praise for its historical accuracy and tactical gameplay. Our commitment to community feedback has led to major updates, including new historical eras (e.g., the Seven Years’ War), cross-platform play support, and a mobile version optimized for touch controls. We also partner with historical museums and reenactment groups to promote the game and educate players about 18th-century warfare.
Looking ahead, we’re expanding Musket: Battlefield Chronicles with a single-player campaign that follows the story of a soldier during the Revolutionary War, a cooperative PvE mode where players defend forts from enemy attacks, and a virtual reality (VR) version that immerses players in the chaos of historical battles. We’re also developing a modding tool that allows players to create custom historical maps and scenarios (with moderation).
At musket.pro, our mission is to educate and entertain through realistic historical gameplay. Whether you’re a history enthusiast looking to experience iconic battles or a tactical gamer seeking a challenging multiplayer experience, we welcome you to join our community of soldiers.
