Cold Winter

Uncover a nuclear conspiracy as MI6 agent Andrew Sterling. Cold Winter is a first-person shooter set across espionage missions that move from a Chinese prison to international locations. The campaign combines a conspiracy-driven story with fast firefights, intelligence gathering, sabotage, keycard searches, and explosive objectives.

Weapons, crafting, physics, and competitive combat. Players use a broad arsenal, search bodies for armour and supplies, create items such as lockpicks, Molotovs, and motion-sensing bombs, and rely on an indefinite medipak with a vulnerable healing animation. The PS2 version also includes four-player split-screen and eight-player online multiplayer with modes such as Deathmatch, King of the Hill, Flag Tag, Last Man Standing, and Domination.

PS2-to-PS3 catalogue entry. The original PS2 release was developed by Swordfish Studios and published by Vivendi Universal Games. Its first-person viewpoint, espionage setting, fast shooting, environmental hazards, crafting options, physics effects, single-player campaign, and extensive local and online multiplayer define this overlooked shooter.
