War Rock (Korean: 워록) is a multiplayer online first-person shooter available free for download, as well as a commercially-sold retail package. The retail version comes with additional features in comparison to the free version. War Rock has low system requirements compared to other contemporary online first person shooters. This gives the game a slightly wider audience, allowing casual gamers and those who do not follow the latest trends in PC gaming hardware to play.
The International version, in contrast to the Korean version, has no blood. K2 Network made this change so that the ESRB rating system would mark it as a T for Teen.
K2 ended its beta-testing on January 31, 2007 in preparation for the February 7, 2007 commercial release.
War Rock games are divided into three modes of play: Close Quarters Combat, Urban Ops and Battle Group. These differ in the size of the map, the number of respawns permitted and the availability of vehicles, with CQC being focused on small-scale infantry missions and BG involving huge battlefields with large numbers of tanks, transports, helicopters and jet aircraft. Objectives in the different game modes include capturing and defending key positions on the map, planting explosives on enemy targets, accumulating points in a team deathmatch-style game or a free for all match. For Deathmatch/Battle Group, there is also Conquest mode, making it necessary for each team to capture all the flags in the map, or whittle down the other team's points from 999. War Rock also offers a premium option, which gives you Dinar each month and offers more of the guns in the weapon store, buying premium also lets you make a room with custom names, private options, and any map available in War Rock. War Rock also features a list of servers to go to, incase you live close to the hoster. Also, VoIP is currently under construction in K2.
