About Talvisota - Winter War
✦ AI summary
Fight across the frozen battlefields of the Winter War as Soviet or Finnish forces, wielding period-accurate weaponry and operating massive tanks that demand crew coordination to survive. This full conversion mod transforms Rising Storm 2's gameplay into a rarely-explored theater of WWII with 11 brand-new maps, authentic voice acting, and asymmetrical gameplay where Finns rely on anti-tank weapons and skis against Soviet mechanized forces.
NOTICE: This Mod requires a valid installation of Rising Storm 2: Vietnam.
Talvisota: Winter War is a community created full conversion mod, utilizing the majority of core gameplay mechanics from Rising Storm 2: Vietnam to explore an entirely different theater of war not often seen in video games.
To create a battlefield that feels different from the base game a lot of work has gone into both brand-new content and features, as well as aspects that veterans of the series will immediately recognize:
FEATURES - WEAPONS
Talvisota features a widespread arsenal of period-accurate Soviet and Finnish weaponry of all types, for example:
BRAND-NEW WEAPONS
- Suomi KP/-31 SMG
- L1935 Lahti Pistol
- Lahti-Saloranta M/26 LMG
- "Kasapanos" Satchel Charge
- Panssarimiina M/39 Anti-Tank Mine
- Dyakonov Rifle Grenade
REMASTERED CLASSICS
- SVT Semi-Auto Rifle
- Nagant M1895 Revolver
- F1 Grenade
- Maxim HMG
FEATURES - VEHICLES
When the Soviets crossed the border, they brought with them an armada of different armored vehicles, from light transport tractors to gargantuan heavy tanks. This mod features the following:
- T-20 "Komsomolets" Armored Tractor
- T-26 Light Tank
- HT-130 Flamethrower Tank
- T-28 Medium Tank
Drastically different from the helicopters of Rising Storm 2, these behemoths require players to work together to properly and effectively utilize. Single crewmen cannot drive and operate the turret at the same time!
Meanwhile Finnish players have a variety of handheld anti-tank weapons and traps, including the renowned Molotov Cocktail. To keep up with the mechanized Soviet transports, Finnish soldiers are issued Skis that can be used to quickly cross open terrain.
FEATURES - MAPS
The mod launches with 11 unique brand-new maps by community authors:
- Aittojoki
- Boreal
- Kollaa River
- Kuhmo Outskirts
- Mannerheim Line
- Mantsinsaari Island
- Raate Road
- Salla
- Summa
- Suomussalmi
- Tolvajarvi
AND MORE!
- Full voice acting for both teams
- All-new ambient music
- Historically accurate character customization options
- New commander abilities & fire support

one of the best mods ever made for a game, shame that it died prematurely3 found this helpful
Great game! Love the voice acting and weapon accuracy like the finnish mg not having adjustable iron sights or the fins having skiis. Unfortunate that it has such few players, I usually find servers with one or two other players and I end up as the last one. Anyway, perkele it's a good game! Eldankajärven jää2 found this helpful
Talvisota: Winter War is a remarkable historical multiplayer shooter that revisits one of the lesser-known conflicts of the twentieth century, the Winter War between Finland and the Soviet Union. Developed by the Talvisota Team and published by Tripwire Interactive, this total conversion project transforms the foundation of Rising Storm 2: Vietnam into an entirely different experience, replacing tropical jungles and modern military equipment with frozen forests, snow-covered battlefields, and period-authentic weaponry. The result is a game that not only educates players about a fascinating chapter of history but also delivers a distinctive and engaging tactical combat experience. What immediately stands out is the game's dedication to authenticity. The developers have gone to great lengths to recreate the atmosphere of the conflict through historically inspired weapons, vehicles, uniforms, and environments. Players can fight as either Finnish or Soviet forces, each equipped with arsenals that accurately reflect their military capabilities. Firearms such as bolt-action rifles, submachine guns, pistols, machine guns, anti-tank devices, and explosive equipment all contribute to battl…1 found this helpful
Long dead game, the voice lines also sound like its been recorded by bunch of half-asleep guys.
WE NEED A UPDATE!
Its a great mod built on a solid platform, but unfortunately there is no player base. It deserves more players.
