Command & Conquer remasters confirmed by EA

October 31, 2018 In EA's quarterly earnings call, the publisher confirms that the Command & Conquer team are working on new PC-focused content for the series. Woo.

Last month we received word that EA "have the ball rolling" on a possible remaster of the original Command & Conquer, with a view to release in 2020 "to celebrate the upcoming 25th Year Anniversary". Now EA has confirmed that this is going ahead. My arms are bruised from all the pinching. Last we heard of the series which set the template for that most PC of PC genres - the RTS - it was heading to mobile with Command & Conquer: Rivals, in perhaps the most unwelcome reveal of this year's E3. Understandably (and predictably), a lot of PC gamers were annoyed about this, and producer Jim Vessella said EA has "heard you loud and clear: the Command & Conquer community 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."
