Players are invited to engage in the iconic “NATO vs. USSR” conflict, set specifically in the year 1984. The game’s description highlights the core gameplay:

Commanders can play as either side across two story-driven campaigns and various combat missions. Build up your forces, assign heroes, level up units, and utilize powerful Headquarters skills to outmaneuver the enemy and alter the course of modern history.

Upon its release, “Headquarters: Cold War” has received “Mixed” reviews on Steam. Some players have criticized the game for being “unintuitive” and expressed the opinion that this installment feels like a “reskin” of a previous title in the franchise.
