I’m a huge fan of Command & Conquer, yet I have to admit, I needed a refresher on what exactly Command & Conquer: Tiberium Alliances was before diving into this piece. Wondering why this game suddenly popped up on my radar? Well, here’s the scoop.
Out of the blue, EA has set up a Steam page for Tiberium Alliances (thanks to PCGamesN for the heads up), hinting that a re-release of this game is potentially on the horizon.
Command & Conquer: Tiberium Alliances stands out as a rather unique addition to the legendary, albeit sadly quiet, real-time strategy series. This game originally was a browser-based, free-to-play MMO, popular back when browser games were all the rage.
It first launched online back in May 2012, over a decade ago. Yet, it’s definitely not one of the titles that immediately springs to mind when you think of Command & Conquer.
The Steam version will be free-to-play too, including the strategic layer that isn’t usually associated with C&C but was a vital part of the initial browser experience. It’ll be fascinating to watch how EA manages to transition the social, friend-inviting features of the original into a desktop format.
In Tiberium Alliances, you can choose to lead either the GDI or NOD factions. Players have access to each faction’s distinct buildings, units, and defenses and can research upgrades just like in the classic RTS games.
The game also features a meta-strategy layer involving territory conquests and alliances with friends, bringing in nostalgic elements of 2010s browser games. These features appear to be making a comeback in the anticipated Steam version. Although the Steam store page merely lists the release as ‘coming soon,’ I wouldn’t be surprised if it suddenly lands during an event like The Game Awards.
Jumping back into this, which is arguably a relic of its time, might simply be a fun nod to the past, but die-hard C&C fans are actually longing for remasters of the classic titles. The Command & Conquer Remastered Collection was great, but it felt like that was just the tip of the iceberg. For a second, it seemed like EA might dig deeper into its vault and resurrect some of its cherished franchises. Unfortunately, that momentum didn’t continue—unless we count the re-release of Command & Conquer games on Steam earlier this year, which, frankly, I don’t.
