Play as Sergeant First Class Steve R. Hawkins, a Green Beret assigned to a remote outpost in the heart of Vietnam. His role as squad leader drives the game’s tactical decision‑making and mission structure.
Lead a diverse Special Forces squad, including a medic, engineer, radioman, and point man. Each member has unique abilities—healing wounds, detecting traps, calling support, or navigating dense jungle terrain.
Fight through dense, atmospheric jungle environments, where visibility is limited, enemy ambushes are frequent, and every rustle of leaves could signal danger. The game emphasizes tension, stealth, and situational awareness.
Engage in tactical, squad‑based combat, issuing commands to your team, coordinating movement, and using cover to survive firefights. The Vietcong use guerrilla tactics, forcing players to adapt quickly.
Experience a full campaign featuring varied mission types, including patrols, search‑and‑destroy operations, tunnel clearing, base defense, prisoner rescues, and nighttime infiltration missions.
Navigate claustrophobic Vietcong tunnel systems, crawling through dark, narrow passages filled with traps, hidden enemies, and sudden ambushes. These sequences heighten tension and require careful movement.
Use authentic Vietnam‑era weapons, including M16 rifles, M60 machine guns, shotguns, grenades, claymores, and captured Vietcong weapons. Each firearm has distinct recoil, accuracy, and handling.
Rely on your point man to detect traps, such as punji pits, tripwires, and hidden explosives. The jungle is filled with hazards that punish careless movement.
Experience dynamic combat encounters, with enemies using hit‑and‑run tactics, flanking maneuvers, and camouflage to blend into the environment. Firefights feel unpredictable and dangerous.
Listen to immersive sound design, including jungle ambience, distant gunfire, radio chatter, and period‑appropriate music that enhances the Vietnam War atmosphere.
Explore semi‑open mission areas, allowing players to choose routes, scout ahead, or set up ambushes. The game rewards cautious, tactical play over rushing forward.
Play multiplayer modes, including team‑based battles and objective‑driven missions that recreate the tension and unpredictability of jungle warfare.
Replay missions to refine tactics, experiment with different squad strategies, and uncover hidden paths or enemy positions.
