One of my Favorite RTS series makes a slight comeback and updates its older games!

Pretty wild how C&C and "Age Of" games are making such good efforts all around ( we dont talk about warcraft "efforts" )

Info:

EA hand Command & Conquer modders the source code for Tiberian Dawn, Renegade, Red Alert and Generals

EA have restored and released the full source code for several antique Command & Conquer games under the General Public License, in a red letter day for series modders. The games in question are the original Command & Conquer (aka Tiberian Dawn), Command & Conquer: Red Alert, Command & Conquer Renegade and Command & Conquer Generals, plus the latter's Zero Hour expansion. That's a lot of refurbishable strategy game to get your head around.

From Reddit post:

Enabling the Steam Workshop support for more C&C titles to allow users to upload their custom maps! We know this has been an ask from the community for a very long time so we are pleased to finally give all you map creators an official and permanent home on the Steam Workshop for your content. Now Steam Workshop support has gone live for:

  • C&C Renegade
  • C&C Generals & Zero Hour
  • C&C 3 Tiberium Wars and Kane’s Wrath
  • C&C Red Alert 3 & Uprising
  • C&C 4 Tiberian Twilight

Always unexpected when EA does something good. They already open sourced the code from the C&C Remastered Collection a few years ago (https://github.com/electronicarts/CnC_Remastered_Collection) but great to see they released the original sources, too.

Hopefully Red Alert 2/Tiberian Sun will follow too at some point :)

Let's hope the reason they didn't release RA2/TS code yet is that they are doing a remastered version.
One can always dream.

RA2 doesn't need a remastered version.
