Electronic Arts has taken a bold step by releasing the source code for four legendary titles in the Command & Conquer series. These include Command & Conquer, Command & Conquer: Red Alert, Command & Conquer: Renegade, and Command & Conquer: Generals. Now available on GitHub under an open license, this move allows both fans and developers to delve into, modify, and enhance these iconic games.
Furthermore, EA has rolled out Steam Workshop support for the newer Command & Conquer games that utilize the SAGE engine, including Kane's Wrath and Red Alert 3. This new feature simplifies the process of creating and sharing custom content, thereby fostering a dynamic, community-driven gaming experience.
Although Electronic Arts might not be actively developing new titles within the Command & Conquer franchise at the moment, it remains a favorite among its dedicated fanbase. By providing access to the source code and improving modding capabilities, EA is empowering enthusiasts to rejuvenate the series. This initiative not only breathes new life into these classics but also has the potential to draw in a new audience, eager to explore or contribute to the storied legacy of Command & Conquer.
