About the Game
In Cold Winter , you play the role of Andrew Sterling, a former member of MI6, the British secret intelligence service. Andrew is caught preparing to assassinate someone in China, and is thrown into prison. There he faces torture and imminent execution. But a former friend from his MI6 days arranges to rescue him and offers him a job, having planned in advance to manipulate him so that he is unable to refuse.
Story & Setting
In the story, there is a secret society called the Greywings, which slowly began to form after World War I. It is possible to take the roles of two other primary characters in the story.
Gameplay & Core Systems
The first task seems fairly ordinary: to track down a weapons dealer who has been supplying terrorists. The organization dedicated itself to stopping nuclear weapons proliferation by any means. He set in motion a plan calculated to cause the nuclear war he had been trying to prevent for his whole life, reasoning that it is better to have the war under controlled conditions, because it would have happened sooner or later. In this first-person shooter, you can collect over 20 weapons to kill your enemies. You can make weapons by combining items you find.
Standout Features
- Winterlong: He must track them down and follow them to 'Winterlong,' a hidden bunker in the Arctic, where they have taken shelter.
- You can only carry two of them simultaneously, although it is also possible to use grenades.
- In combat, you can use various objects to help you.
- For example, you can throw pots at your enemies.
- Large objects such as chairs, desks, and even wheeled carts can be pushed to block the enemy's path or to provide limited cover for yourself.
- Depending on how quickly you are able to react, they are likely to send someone to get reinforcements, and they yell for help.
Modes & Ways to Play
Player support includes Same/Split-Screen and Free-for-all / One-on-one (VS).
Presentation & Atmosphere
But soon Andrew's mission becomes more important, because he must deal with a sinister conspiracy that embraces the whole world.
