Cossacks: Back to War is a standalone expansion to the real-time strategy game Cossacks: European Wars, developed by the Ukrainian studio GSC Game World and released in 2002. The game retains large-scale battles with thousands of units, an emphasis on economic management, and historical authenticity, covering conflicts of the 17th-18th centuries.
The expansion introduces two new nations - Switzerland and Hungary - over 100 new missions, and improved game balance. Back to War focuses primarily on single scenarios and free play, lacking a campaign but compensating with diverse content and deep strategic mechanics.
The game received positive reviews for its content volume, high replayability, and fidelity to the spirit of the original series. Despite the absence of a campaign, Cossacks: Back to War is considered one of the best entry points into the series thanks to its polished gameplay and ease of launch without requiring the base game.
