Now, in addition to the excitement and support of this remaster initiative over the past month, there has also been a healthy skepticism that we can pull this off. But what about the classic expansion packs you may ask - Covert Ops, Counterstrike, and Aftermath? Well, C&C and Red Alert wouldn’t be the same without them, so all three expansion packs will be bundled with the base games into one remastered collection - without microtransactions. So, we will also remaster the original Command & Conquer: Red Alert™. And while this is incredibly exciting on its own, we’re also aware of how passionate the community is about the Red Alert universe. We have decided to remaster Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn. Today, I’m thrilled to tell you we are going back to the beginning. In a post on the Command and Conquer subreddit, EA producer Jim Vessella announced that the company is working on a remastered version of the first games, suitable for modern hardware. I did not think we would ever write this post.Ĭ&C is coming back. Our forums continue to sustain an active conversation around modding, mapping, and playing all sorts of C&C games, but it is fair to say the C&C community is much, much smaller than it used to be. We kept ours open but, by necessity, became tremendously less active. Most of the many C&C fan sites closed their doors, including long time stalwarts like CNC Den and PlanetCNC.

It seemed fair to say that C&C was left for dead. Since then, EA announced and then canceled C&C Generals 2, firing a large portion of the team in the process. The previous major game before that, Red Alert 3, came out more than a decade ago, in the fall of 2008. The last Command and Conquer game, CNC 4, came out in 2010.
