PlayStation · 1996
About this game
In 1991, the U.S.S.R. (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics); boasting the largest military force in history, suddenly and unexpectedly collapsed.
Since that time, the fallen empire has lain lifeless -- a rich corpse waiting to be picked clean.

Now, a sinister ex-KGB general codenamed Shadowman directs a flock of vultures to swoop in from all parts of Eastern Europe and claim Russia's nuclear warheads and weapons of mass terror.
With these "wars of liberation", Shadowman intends to shake democratic Russia to its foundations, bringing about a return to the Cold War... or even worse.
Soviet Strike is the fourth installment in the Strike series and the first for 32-bit consoles.
Once again, this is a shooting game where the player is in control of a combat helicopter, this time guiding it through 41 deadly missions across five unique 3D worlds, from Crimea to the streets of Moscow or above the Black Sea.
This installment introduces a brand new "Living Battlefields" feature, where the enemy troops, their tactics and vehicle responses will adapt to the player's actions as they progress toward their objective, sometimes triggering events without waiting for the player to be on site.
About PlayStation
The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.
Gamevaro tracks Soviet Strike for PlayStation with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Soviet Strike to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS1 release dates back to 1996.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Soviet Strike has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
