Six Days In Fallujah, the tactical first person shooter from Atomic Games, first emerged in the mid 2000s and would tell the story of Marines from the U.S. 3rd Battalion fighting in the Second Battle of Fallujah. However, the game was attacked from all sides and publisher Konami dropped the game. Years later, the game re-emerged from a company called Victura and would be developed by Highwire Games. Years later, the game still isn't out and a release date isn't on the horizon. What happened to the controversial game? Will it get a fair shot when it finally comes out? Let's talk about it.

Six Days in Fallujah is an upcoming tactical shooter game developed by Highwire Games and published by Victura. The game's plot follows a squad of U.S. Marines from 3rd Battalion, 1st Marines (3/1), fighting in the Second Battle of Fallujah over the span of six days in November 2004.
The premise of the game was the subject of controversy in 2009, with questions raised as to its appropriateness, especially given the fact that the true events the game is based upon were recent at the time. It was originally to be published by Konami, however, in April 2009, a spokesperson informed the Associated Press that Konami was no longer publishing the game due to the controversy surrounding it. The game was originally slated for a 2010 release, but it was cancelled due to controversy; the game was put on hold until 2016 after its original studio, Atomic Games, went bankrupt in 2011.
In February 2021, the game was announced to be back in development at Highwire Games, consisting of former Halo and Destiny game developers.[1] Six Days in Fallujah is expected to be released on Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S in 2023.

The Second Battle of Fallujah, codenamed Operation al-Fajr (Arabic: الفجر, lit. 'The Dawn') and Operation Phantom Fury, was an American-led offensive of the Iraq War that lasted roughly six weeks, starting 7 November 2004. Marking the highest point of the conflict against the Iraqi insurgency, it was a joint military effort carried out by the United States, the Iraqi Interim Government, and the United Kingdom. Within the city of Fallujah, the coalition was led by the U.S. Marine Corps and U.S. Army, the battle was later described as "some of the heaviest urban combat U.S. military have been involved in since the Battle of Huế City in Vietnam in 1968".[18][19]
Operation Phantom Fury was the second major coalition effort in Fallujah. Earlier, in April 2004, coalition forces fought the First Battle of Fallujah in an attempt to capture or kill insurgent elements who were considered responsible for the 2004 Fallujah ambush, which resulted in the deaths of four private military contractors of Blackwater. When the coalition fought their way into the centre of the city, the Iraqi Interim Government requested that the city's control be transferred over to an Iraqi-run local security force, which then began stockpiling weapons and building complex defenses across the city through mid-2004.[20] The Second Battle of Fallujah was the bloodiest battle of the entire conflict for American troops,[21] and is notable for being the first major engagement of the Iraq War that was fought solely against insurgents as opposed to the government military forces of the former Ba'athist Iraq.
