EA announces two 'Command & Conquer' remasters in 4K

After teasing about bringing the franchise back to PC, EA has announced in a blog post that it will be bringing back not one but two classic Command & Conquer titles. Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn and the original Command & Conquer: Red Alert will be remastered in 4K. The company also mentioned that the classic expansion packs - Covert Ops, Counterstrike, and Aftermath - will also be part of the remaster, bundled with the base games into one remastered collection - without microtransactions.

To bring the RTS series back, EA will be partnering with Petroglyph Games, which includes many of the original developers from Westwood Studios, and "some of the most influential members of the original Command & Conquer development team from 1995".

Lemon Sky Studios has also been added to the mix to give the titles the 4K treatment.

While the news has been made public, EA creative director Jim Vessella mentions in the blog post that development has not yet started.

openRA is good enough for me
also supports modern resolutions

I will also expect a C&D letter to the openRA devs, because it's EA after all
They can't allow someone else to steal potential income :)

That would be weird even by EA standards. EA was the one releasing C&C and RA as freeware in the first place. As such, openRA actually saves EA bandwith use, as people are more likely to download the "all-patches-applied" openRA than the full 700MB iso servers

Déjà vu FEELING
Feels like I've had this conversation before on this forum, hm.
Ah well, this is the new money grubby EA that we are dealing with.
They will deal with openRA just like they dealt with the battlefield 2 project that revived multiplayer :>

No, bad EA, keep your fingers off that brand. It has suffered enough especially with the latest attempt to revive it. Leave it alone and let it stay dead as you killed it already and keep on mocking it. Only thing they try to do is another cash grab with it.

Hell yeah totally approved, but I still want the canceled Command & Conquer on frostbite, it was looking so good damn awesome and EA killed it FFS...

Hope they bring the old C&C for Android too as strategy games on Android are mostly base raping games, don't even know why no one makes a game as good as age of empires and command and conquer from the 90s...

I sunk hours into the original Red Alert but I would still prefer it if they remastered Generals. It's a better game!!
