Game Overview

Set on the battlefields of World War III, Tom Clancy's EndWar has been built from the ground up as a revolutionary war strategy game solely for next-generation consoles.

The Good

Innovative voice command mechanic makes you feel powerful, Fantastic audio and visuals put you in the thick of the action, Persistent online campaign makes matches feel meaningful, Different match types make good use of uplink capture mechanic.

The Bad

Single-player campaign has no story to speak of, All three factions play the same way, Limited unit types make for simple rock-paper-scissors skirmishes.

The Bottom Line

From 2011 to 2014, the world enjoyed an unprecedented era of peace as enhanced defense technology eliminated the threat of nuclear war. It didn't last.

By 2020, constant depletion of resources has international tensions at a breaking point. One spark will ignite what no one thought could ever happen ... a third and final world war. World War III comes to life in Tom Clancy's EndWar.

In EndWar players represent one of three national armies (U.S. Russia or Europe) and participate in massive multiplayer battles. EndWar can be played almost entirely by voice command and also features a customizable army, as well as the ability to fight in various battlefields and cities around the world.
