Gameplay


Like its predecessors in the series, Rising Storm 2: Vietnam is a tactical first-person shooter that emphasizes large-scale teamwork with realistic mechanics and combat. The game is set in the period of the Vietnam War, and many of the locations are based on historic battles. Players can make use of era-specific weapons, including automatic and semi-automatic rifles, artillery, flamethrowers, and machine guns.

Rising Storm 2: Vietnam's multiplayer pits up to 64 players against one another from either the South or the North in the Vietnam War conflict. Each faction features unique Roles and abilities, making the game asymmetrical. Players can choose between the National Liberation Front (NLF/VC) and the North Vietnamese Army (PAVN/NVA), against the United States Army, the United States Marine Corps, the Australian Army, and the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN).[4]

For the first time in the franchise, players are able to take control of airborne vehicles, including attack, reconnaissance, and transport helicopters. Weapon and character customization also mark their debuts, including weapon and munition varieties as well as head, upper and lower body and skin customization.
