    Nothing flexes our imagination like alternate history scenarios, and World in Conflict delivers one that has us on the edge of our seat. It’s the late 1980s, and the Cold War is far from over. Read more

    • Amazingly detailed battlegrounds; highly tactical. Also: Accessible and fun.
    • Online "support" class not particularly great.

    With a multitude of World War II games smothering the real-time strategy genre, it was a breath of fresh air to see a game set in the Cold War. Read more

    World in Conflict is, apparently, a perfect game and surely a title that changes the way gamers will look from now on at real time strategy titles. Read more

    • Amazing graphics, Innovative gameplay, Great Multiplayer
    • No Soviet Union Campaign

    So, the game comes highly recommended, in spite of a few technical glitches, which aren't going to get in the way of a great RTS experience. Read more

    • Convincing story presentation and characters in single-player, addictive multiplayer, great visuals and audio, variety of units and options, well-designed maps;
    • At times too demanding for your average rig, especially when playing larger maps, infrequent pathfinding issues; Russian campaign would've been great.

    7.9/10

    Lost Empire: Immortals is one of those games you're going to love or hate. It is a strategy game with a low budget price, but it offers more than most console games that run you about 60 bucks. Read more

    • Large scale strategy game; high replay value.
    • Clunky interface; large games can sometimes be hard to manage.

    World in Conflict was one of the best RTS games i ever played. The story was great, even if the dialog was a little cheesy at times, but the overall story made up for it. Read more

    • The real qestion is, what is not great about it
    • Takes a higher end machine to pull the full awesomenss out of it

    I had purchased this game before and loved it. Un fortunately my old computer couldn't really handle it so I had to run it at low graphic settings, even then this game was still awsome. Read more

    Newegg is good (I think). I know stuff gets messed up on keys, but taking a day to get a new key? not worth sending it back to newegg, only cost $6.99. o' well. Read more

    • None yet. Shipping free, got it in 4 days.
    • The CD-Key is invalid. Called UBI. they said it is invalid, sent instructions to get a new key. still waiting. called again, said it will take around a hour to get the new key. still waiting.

    I would recommend this game to anyone. I really didn't want to deduct a half-star, but because of the graphics... Read more

    • Epic, emotional Story Awesome gameplay World extremely awesome (but see below) Online gameplay fun, but if you have just completed the campaign, you won't do well
    • Graphics to demanding - However, you really aren't zooming in to see the detail and all a lot - I have a really bad system that likes to get really hot, so this is coming from a lower end PC - Still plays great

    I have come across many strategy game before but this was the very first that got me playing for days sometimes. In its appearence and gameplay experience was totally unique for me at first look. Read more

    • Great grapics and special effects, replayable singleplayer mode
    • Quite high hardware needs, uncontrolled multiplayer mode, unrealistic in-battle support

  • Manufacturer's Description

‘World in Conflict’ presents a chillingly authentic Cold War scenario where the Berlin Wall never fell. Created by Cold War authority and best-selling author Larry Bond, the story begins in 1989 as the Soviets, fearing certain collapse, boldly advance into Europe. NATO responds in force only to be met on a second front - a full-fledged invasion of the American homeland.
