Free-to-play shooter Warface visits Siberia with a friend
Fans of Warface (not to be confused with Warcraft, Warframe, Faceball 2000 or these abominations) should invest in warm clothing for two, as the game's next setting is a cooperative mission in the snowy Altai Mountains of Siberia.
"The stunning new Co-op setting, Operation Cold Peak, will test experienced players to their limits as they target a secluded stronghold located high in Siberia's Altai Mountains," reads an official description from developer Crytek. "Teamwork will be key as players bid to crack Blackwood's icy grip and advance through three separate stages on their ascent. Along the way, they'll have to brave the elements as well as enemy fire, and stay on track when blizzards suddenly strike up to change the state of play."
According to Crytek, Operation Cold Peak will feature three new maps as well as new boss characters. Like all Warface updates, Operation Cold Peak will be available at no charge, though Crytek has yet to reveal when these new maps will debut. While you wait, have a look at the teaser beyond the break.
