April 2025
It is what it says on the tin, Not GDI vs. Not NOD over Not Tiberium. A nice sprinkle of over-the-topness in cutscenes, units, and gameplay has made for a great spiritual successor to the old titles and, hopefully, a promise for an RTS classic resurgence. Not played any multiplayer but the campaign has been good fun.

GDI vs NOD is back, renamed and reskinned. It's good old CnC plus some modern features like units get experince and you can upgrade your armies with perks. Totally recomment at release price.

If you are a fan of Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, then you will enjoy this game a lot. The units, music, and gameplay are on point! Two factions at the moment but there is a third being released down the road.

So far I can say this is what I wanted for a long time. Good campaign/skirmish game. It does feel like "old" new Red alert game from Westwood. Thank you for making this.
