    3 Trivia

    • For unknown reasons, the voice message sound file for the event when a Taerkasten player is eliminated during the multiplayer matches (25181.wav) is only present in the French retail release version of Urban Assault.
    • Some mistranslation errors are present in the English version briefing text of Metropolis Dawn when compared to the original German briefing text. This is most likely a minor oversight or a mistake during the translation.
