Summary
World in Conflict (WIC) is a tactical strategy game from Massive Entertainment that poses the question: What if the Cold War didn't end? Pitting the era's superpowers against one another with destructible 3D battlefields, staggering visuals utilising DX10 technology, and a gameplay mechanism which removes traditional resource-gathering and base-building in favour of all-out combat, tactical decisions and a penchant for intense action, WIC is a whole world away from the competition in ambition and scope.
WIC charges you to command of a number of units on a large scale map. Battles in WIC take place in various locations, far away from military bases and construction sites. It's 1989 (okay!) and a Soviet-led army has launched a surprise attack on Europe and the USA. In a chillingly plausible single-player campaign, you can fight on the frontlines of real-life towns and cities in the USA, USSR and the rest of Europe. You can attain full command of four different battlefield roles - Air, Armour, Infantry and Support - in the ultimate online team-based multiplayer experience too.
World in Conflict Complete Edition includes the original game along with Soviet Assault - a true genre-bender of a game that merges elements of strategy, first-person-shooter and action games - that effectively carves out a new 'Action-Strategy' genre in gaming - a genre that has proven to appeal to all kinds of gamers, from action junkies to first-person-shooter enthusiasts to strategy purists.
