Surrounded and outnumbered, your forces face destruction from all directions. Welcome to a World in Conflict. Brought to you by Sierra Entertainment and developer Massive Entertainment, this action-strategy game will be battling its way to your computer screen on September 18, 2007.

Set in an alternate timeline, World in Conflict places you on the frontlines of a 1988 conflict where the Cold War heats up instead of freezing out. The Soviets, fearing an internal collapse, make an effort to expand their influence by invading Eastern Europe. NATO hurries to respond only to be distracted by a second attack – this one on American soil. Do battle in the familiar streets of American’s cities in an effort to repel Soviet invaders. Armed with full 360 degree control of the camera, totally destructible environments and a storyline penned by Larry Bond, World in Conflict promises to light up your computer screen.
