Post Scriptum is a 2018 tactical first-person shooter video game developed by French[1] studio Periscope Games and published by Offworld Industries. It is set during World War II, specifically during the Battle of France, Operation Overlord, Operation Market Garden, and the Battle of the Bulge. The game features several playable factions—the United States Army, British Army, French Army, and the Wehrmacht—with each faction having multiple different playable units.

It was initially developed as a mod for Offworld Industries' Squad, with Post Scriptum becoming its own standalone game by Periscope Games with assistance from their publisher, Offworld Industries. It released on 9 August 2018 through video game distributor Steam.[2][3]

On Nov 20, 2023 Offworld Industries announced the acquisition of Post Scriptum. Offworld Industries revealed it will be working with Mercury Arts on the game. Offworld also said it is working on a 2024 roadmap of updates that will be shared with the community at a later time.[4]
