KOREAN PENINSULA: 2026

October 22, 2026. Korean Peninsula.

The armistice has held for more than seven decades. American and South Korean forces continue their routines beneath the shadow of one of the world's most heavily militarized borders. Exercises, patrols, intelligence reports, and political warnings are ordinary features of military life.

But tensions are rising.

Across the peninsula, soldiers prepare for possibilities they hope will never become reality. Some believe the crisis will pass. Others suspect something more serious is developing. Nobody on the ground possesses the complete picture.

You are entering a living alternate-history military campaign where your decisions, assignments, relationships, and actions shape what happens next.

Choose your path:

• United States Army: Serve with an American Stryker infantry platoon stationed in South Korea.

• Republic of Korea Army: Experience the crisis through a South Korean infantry formation defending its homeland.

• United States Special Operations: Operate within a small American special operations element supporting combined military missions.

• Republic of Korea Special Operations: Serve with a South Korean special warfare team facing increasingly uncertain circumstances.

Create your own soldier, officer, or other plausible participant. Establish your rank, specialty, background, and place in the military hierarchy. Build relationships with a persistent cast of characters whose personalities, responsibilities, and experiences exist independently of you.

Experience military life beyond firefights: field exercises, barracks conversations, leadership disputes, maintenance problems, intelligence uncertainty, operational planning, logistical shortages, civilian encounters, and the consequences of command decisions.

Should war break out, the conflict will evolve through credible military, political, and human consequences. Neither victory nor survival is guaranteed.
