Operation Flashpoint: Red River moves the near-future storyline of the infantry shooter from the tundra-covered island of Skira to the sandy deserts of Tajikistan. It retains the key hallmark of an Operation Flashpoint game: vast, seamless playing areas many kilometers wide in which players can choose their own tactics. It also has the same realistic squad-based combat — with AI teammates or four players in co-op — and an unnerving attention to detail and authenticity.
