The expansion was delivered through two methods: online download and retail. On November 11, Massive was acquired by Ubisoft. On August 6, 2008, Sierra Massive Entertainment was put up for sale. On July 29, 2008, Sierra dropped World in Conflict: Soviet Assault, among other games from their productions, putting the game's future in question. However, the console versions were cancelled. Soviet Assault was going to be released in Q4 2008 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 as a stand-alone game, and for Windows-based PCs as an expansion pack. During Romanov's quest, Captain Nikolai Malashenko and Major Valeriy Lebedjev will aid him to take over the world. In the Soviet campaign, the players will be able to take control of a Soviet lieutenant named Romanov, who is under command of Colonel Vladimir Orlovsky. The missions are integrated within the original campaign. Soviet Assault features 6 new campaign missions and 2 new multiplayer maps.
A deluded Malashenko, however, proceeds for Seattle where he is sure to meet certain death. He realizes, like Orlovsky before him, that Seattle cannot be held and evacuates all forces under his command. Major Lebedjev assumes command of the remaining Soviet forces, as they hold off a massive American attack. Malashenko kills Orlovsky for ordering all Soviet troops in the area to return to the USSR instead of holding the line at Seattle. Romanov is given command of Frontal Aviation assets to protect a convoy of wounded Soviet troops. The Red Army retreat from Cascade Falls back towards Seattle to prepare for the inevitable US counterattack. The events return to the aftermath of the US nuclear strike on Cascade Falls, which stopped a Soviet force advancing on Fort Teller. He also states his disdain over the Soviet government and its agencies' lies to the Army over enemy statistics, becoming increasingly infuriated at the lack of progress and desires to take matters into his own hands.
Here, Malashenko receives grave news that his wife and daughter were killed in a NATO raid. Orlovsky's forces return to the Soviet Union and defend a POW camp from a NATO attack force. After the attack, Orlovsky and his men learn that a NATO task force made an incursion into the Soviet Union near Murmansk. Going back months earlier, a stalemate in the fighting between the USSR and NATO results in Orlovsky's battalion being given the task to raid a Norwegian early warning base, which would open up a corridor for the Soviet Air Force to fly combat missions against Western Europe. The guerrilla leader is captured but Orlovsky reprimands a vengeful Malashenko, who is caught before he can massacre American civilians. Guerrilla fighters begin harassing Soviet forces and they respond with an attack on the guerrilla commanders. Months later, Soviet forces launch a surprise invasion of Seattle and Orlovsky and his forces are tasked with pacifying the countryside. The GSFG units in East Berlin, led by Colonel Orlovsky and his subordinates Lieutenant Romanov and Captain Malashenko, blast through the Berlin Wall and destroy the US 6th Armored Battalion. In June 1989, the Soviet Union declares war when Spetznaz forces infiltrate and destroy US anti-air emplacements in West Berlin before the full-scale invasion (and World War III) commences. 1988, driven to the brink of economic collapse from the Cold War, the Soviet Union demands aid from NATO, as the negociations drag with no avail, the world begins to fear of another world war.
