Cobra has established a base at the North Pole and threatens the world with its Weather Dominator! Only G.I. Joe is ready and able to defeat these forces without drawing the entire world into a larger conflict. Admiral Keel-Haul and Snow Job lead the Joes against the aggressive forces of Cobra, led by Cobra Commander and Destro! In G.I. JOE: Battle for the Arctic Circle, you play as the G.I. JOE or Cobra in a fight for control of the Arctic Circle. The game features more than 110 figures, including the Snow Cat, W.O.L.F., Skystriker, and Rattler, and it introduces new strategic options that commanders may employ, such as using the Weather Dominator to freeze the sea to block pathways or create strategic land bridges. The air, land, and sea of the Arctic Circle is the battlefield. Are you ready for a fight?
