Is the Command & Conquer series returning? How and when?
For a time, Command & Conquer was the dominant franchise in the RTS genre. Between its tight gameplay and live-action characters and cutscenes, it set a path for itself which was very successful. But then, it went off the rails, and despite a potential rebirth, it fell once again. However, EA may not have given up on the franchise.
We know that they are going to release a mobile game in the franchise called Rivals, but according to producer Jim Vessella, they’re thinking of doing more:
“As most of you may know, we recently announced Command & Conquer: Rivals, a mobile game set in the Command & Conquer universe. Following the reveal of Rivals, we heard you loud and clear: the Command & Conquer community also wants to see the franchise return to PC. And as a fan of C&C for over 20 years, I couldn’t agree more. With that in mind we’ve been exploring some exciting ideas regarding remastering the classic PC games, and already have the ball rolling on our first effort to celebrate the upcoming 25th Year Anniversary.
More than that though, they’re hoping that if you really do want this, that you’ll let them know.
“We are eager to hear your feedback to help influence our current thoughts for PC and what comes next. Over the next few weeks we’ll be talking to fans in a variety of ways…As a long time C&C fan and developer, I am just as passionate about the C&C franchise as you are, and look forward to hearing your thoughts as they help us shape the future of C&C at EA!”
