World in Conflict is a 2007 real-time strategy (RTS) video game
World in Conflict
developed by the Swedish video game company Massive Entertainment and
published by Vivendi Games for Microsoft Windows. The game was released
in September 2007, receiving generally favorable reviews and several
awards.[3][4][5][6][7] The game is considered by some to be the spiritual
successor of Ground Control, another game by Massive Entertainment,[8]
and is generally conceived by its designers to be a real-time tactical game,
despite being marketed as a RTS game.[9]

The game's setting and story takes place in an alternate 1989, in which an
impending economic collapse and the failure to achieve aid diplomatically
from the West, leads the Soviet Union to invading Western Europe,
triggering World War III. The single-player story sees players assume the
role of a United States Army officer who takes command of battalions of US
and NATO forces; the main bulk of their operations focus on combating a
surprise invasion of the United States from Seattle, Washington, as well as Developer(s) Massive
operations in Southern France, Russia, and New York.[10] Entertainment
