    World in Conflict: Soviet Assault Released

    Ubisoft and Massive Entertainment this week has released World in Conflict: Soviet Assault in North America & Europe. Check it out:
    Massive has released all the details for the expansion and the complete edition which includes the original game as well.

    Release date:
    EU – March 12
    US – March 10

    Soviet Assault contains:
    - 6 new single player missions
    - 2 new multiplayer maps called Berlin and Norway

    Note about the new multiplayer maps:
    The two new maps Berlin and Norway is called do_Mauer and do_Fjord in the game! That means that if you are running a server and wish to have these two maps running on the server you need to add do_Mauer and do_Fjord in the DS_cycle.txt file!

    World in Conflict Complete contains:
    - World in Conflict the original game and Soviet Assault

    World in Conflict Complete – 24.99 Euro
    Soviet Assault Mission Pack – 14.99 Euro

    Note about pricing:
    The price is bound to differ from retailer to retailer. Please note that this is the price set by the publisher and the individual retailers set their final price. For a concrete example you can check Game in the UK. They have "World in Conflict Complete" listed on their website for £17.99 (roughly 20 Euros).

    World in Conflict Complete will be shipped on one single DVD disc.

    Both World in Conflict Complete and the Soviet Assault standalone mission pack will be available through digital download as well as on STEAM.

    Note about STEAM versions:
    The Steam versions are a bit different from standard boxed retail versions, so a Soviet Assault expansion downloaded from Steam won't run with a store version of WIC. Same thing the other way around, a Steam WIC version won't run with a store version of Soviet Assault. World in Conflict Complete will be available in the US, EU and other regions. The standalone Soviet Assault mission pack will only be available for North and South American users.

    I didn't expect it to be released so soon.

    I guess I'll fire up WiC again to try these new maps.

      Well where exactly can I get the expansion that will work with the store version I have?

        Stores should have the standalone expansion

          Totally a bolt out of the blue for me, I've yet to see the stand alone game just yet.

              So I've been looking around for WiC Soviet Assualt mission pack here in the UK and can't seem to find it. Was it even released on it's own here? I can only seem to find the complete collection.

                From what I've been hearing Ubisoft has handling the publishing of WIC terribly so you are better off just getting the complete on Steam or GamersGate.

                  Gah, I'd pretty much put 2 and 2 together and realised it wasn't going to happen. I was just holding out, guess I'll buy WiC twice then! Thanks Ubisoft
