An unique aspect of Soldner is the Advanced Destruction System (ADS) that it implements; explosives, bombs, and missiles can change the shape of terrain, crater runways and roads to make them unusable or difficult to navigate, and damage terrain, trees, and buildings used for cover as well as leaving debris which may become an obstacle for soldiers and vehicles.[3]
An expansion pack, Marine Corps, was released in 2005.[4]
In 2011, the game's developer JoWood was acquired by THQ Nordic,[5] and development of the game was handed over to the game's community.[6]
A remastered version was announced in 2023 to be developed by Pixelcloud Games.[7]
