Thanks to a perceptive C&C forum member, the upcoming January magazine issue of Game Informer reveals a new FPS set in the Command & Conquer universe. As of writing, details are scant since the issue just hit the stands, but here’s what we know:
1. The C&C FPS is called "Tiberium" and is set 11 years after the events of Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars.
2. You play a GDI commander named Ricardo Vega.
3. "Just think of it as GRAW + Battlefield + R6: Vegas in the C&C universe."
4. Potential enemies include the Scrin and NOD.
5. Special powers include "Orbital Slug."
6. Squad-based combat.
7. You’ll lead a squad called R.A.I.D. (Rapid Assault and Intercept Deployment).
Other than that folks, not much else is known. It’s assumed EALA is handling the game’s development since they’ve basically handled every other C&C title in the past. In addition, EALA is working on Kane’s Wrath, the first expansion pack for C&C3, which is expected in spring 2008.
