World at War: Global Conflict

"What are you willing to sacrifice?"

- Vinnie Crosby

World at War: Global Conflict is a first-person shooter video game developed by Crytek, and published by Activision. It is part of the TACITUS franchise, a series of novels that is currently being authored by writer Delta421. It was released in 2017.

Gameplay
World at War: Global Conflict is a first person shooter game that features combined arms battles across singleplayer, co-op and multiplayer modes. It also uses gameplay mechanics from games such as Crysis and Crysis 2. The player assumes the roles of multiple characters from the TACITUS saga and the campaign storyline occurs during a hypothetical World War III. Although the campaign borrows several elements from the short story collection titled Life: A Compilation, part of which occurs during a hypothetical World War III, the rest is completely fictional.

Major characters the player assumes the roles of while playing the game include TACITUS agent named Derek Westbrook, a girl named Ellie Cohen, head of a private military company and vigilante gang called Task Force Reaper, Xia Fang, a Chinese People's Liberation Army sniper, Nikolai Kalinin, a Russian Spetsnaz operative, and Vicki Armstrong, a member of an all-female vigilante gang known as Shadow Force.

Plot Summary
The campaign is divided into three acts, with Act I focusing on Shadow Force, an all-female fighting unit, teaming up with Task Force Reaper in an offensive against the terrorist empire known as the Islamic State of New Palestine, in addition to major events during the Middle Eastern Theater of World War III, which emphasizes fighting the Islamic State of New Palestine which has taken over the Middle East. Act II focuses on the Asian Theater of the Third World War, which pits a Chinese-led military alliance against a united Korean superpower and the Islamic State of New Palestine. Act III focuses on both the European Theater of the War and the Middle Eastern Theater of the War, the part of World War III where the major superpowers of the world launch a counteroffensive against the Islamic State in an attempt to destroy it for good.
