World in Conflict: Soviet Assault now a back door PC exclusive


While PC owners have been waiting for the RTS expansion pack World in Conflict: Soviet Assault for a while the game was also supposed to be released for consoles. At least that was the plan when the game was going to be released via Vivendi Games. However the dumping of the World in Conflict franchise (thanks to the Activision Blizzard merger) and its purchase by Ubisoft have apparently made the game a PC exclusive.

IGN reports that an Ubisoft spokesperson stated, "World of Conflict: Soviet Assault will be released for the PC later this month. A console version of World in Conflict is not planned for release at this time." As we reported previously the game will be released as a stand alone digital download title on March 10 in the US. The game will also be part of a World in Conflict Complete edition (combining the original title with the expansion) for both digital and retail release.
