Red Alert 3 shipping to retailers.
The latest edition of the Command and Conquer: Red Alert franchise is now shipped to retailers across North America ahead of its PC release on the 30th October.
Red Alert 3 has some major new innovations to the RTS genre with three campaigns that can be played by one player or fully co-operatively. It also features a huge cast of actors for the series defining over the top FMVs.
The game continues the Red Alert tradition of time travelling leading to some truly crazy events, this time the Soviet's change time and end up at war with Japan and the US.
Each copy of Red Alert 3 will feature a free 'Women of Red Alert 3' poster and a code for an exclusive item in Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning. The Premier Edition contains exclusive multiplayer maps, behind the scenes documentary and an exclusive beta key for a future Command and Conquer game.
The Premier of the development studio at EA Los Angeles, Chris Corry released the following statement:
"Our team is made up of huge Command & Conquer fans who have been dying to bring back Red Alert and gamers are going to see that passion shine through loud-and-clear in Red Alert 3. Our goal was to strike a balance between being true to our roots – that unique, light-hearted tone and fast-paced Red Alert gameplay – and bringing a feast of exciting new RTS innovations to the table. The deep story, the star-studded cinematics? That feels like Red Alert. But bringing naval gameplay into the heart of the game design and launching the player into an ambitious and engaging co-op campaign? Gamers have never seen anything like this before."
