The Messiah has risen again!
Electronic Arts Inc. announced today that Command & Conquer™ 3: Kane’s Wrath has
shipped to retail outlets in North America and Europe for the PC. The expansion
pack to last year’s award-winning** real-time strategy game Command & Conquer 3
Tiberium Wars™, Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath introduces a new, hand-crafted
campaign spanning two decades of Tiberium lore, six sub-factions and
game-changing epic units to the Command & Conquer universe. And gamers who
purchase Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath or the Command & Conquer 3 Limited
Collection will also receive an exclusive key to the Command & Conquer™ Red
Alert™ 3 beta starting this summer.
“The success of Tiberium Wars showed
us that despite a five year hiatus, the fast, fluid and fun gameplay, deep
storyline and live-action cinematics that make up the DNA of Command & Conquer
still resonate with gamers,” said Jim Vessella, Kane’s Wrath producer. “With
Kane’s Wrath we wanted to take the fiction further by tackling the stories our
fans have been asking us to explore. This gave us a great opportunity to
introduce new sub-factions and units that complement those stories while adding
depth and variety to our core gameplay experience.”
Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath’s
13-mission single player campaign focuses on the rebirth of the Brotherhood of
Nod after the Second Tiberium War through the dramatic events of the Third
Tiberium War and beyond. The story is told through over 30 minutes of
high-definition, full-motion videos starring Natasha Henstridge (Species, Eli
Stone), Carl Lumbly (Alias) and Joe Kucan as Kane. The campaign introduces
six-all new sub-factions that add a wealth of new toys and powers to the armies
of the Tiberium universe’s three clashing superpowers, the Global Defense
Initiative, Brotherhood of Nod and the Scrin, giving gamers nine sides to choose
from in multiplayer. Players will also get an added bonus feature in the new
Global Conquest Mode, which allows commanders to create their own campaigns for
world domination with an infinitely replayable strategic layer added to the
frenzied, tactical combat they know and love.
The Xbox 360™ version of Command &
Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath will be released this summer, debuting a revolutionary
new CommandStick interface that takes RTS console controls to a whole new level
of simplicity and usability. The standalone title also features 50 multiplayer
maps and the Xbox 360 exclusive “Kane’s Challenge”, a single player mode that
pits the player against a terrifying gauntlet of sub-faction opponents.
