Sierra Entertainment has announced that World in Conflict, the PC strategy game developed by Massive Entertainment, has shipped across North America and is available in both Standard and Collector's Edition versions for a suggested retail price of $49.99 and $59.99 respectively. World in Conflict presents a chillingly authentic Cold War scenario where the Berlin Wall never fell. 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. Players take on the role of field commander, leading the era's most powerful military machines in the campaign to retake America's cities and suburbs. World in Conflict will feature destructible 3D battlefields, aggressive team-based multiplayer action, a focus on fast, hard-hitting battles. A playable demo is locally mirrored here.
In related news, Sierra Entertainment and GameStop have announced that gamers can compete in a World in Conflict online 5v5 PC tournament for a chance to win a trip to Los Angeles where they'll vie to become the ultimate World in Conflict champion.
