Command & Conquer Remastered Collection will be released on June 5 as part of the series’ 25th anniversary.
The remaster collection will be available on both Origin and Steam and include: Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn, Command & Conquer: Red Alert, as well as its three expansion packs, Covert Ops, Counterstrike, and The Aftermath.
Command & Conquer Remastered Collection will feature rebuilt graphics and textures that support 4k resolution, a remastered soundtrack, revamped UI, updated controls, and a map editor. Multiplayer has also been rebuilt to support custom games, 1v1 quick match, Elo-based matchmaking, leaderboards, and replays.

The Command & Conquer Remastered Collection was first revealed back in October 2018 on the official game forums to gather community feedback on the project. Command & Conquer Remastered is being called a “passion project” for EA.

So much so that the studio teamed up with Petroglyph Games, which is comprised of former members of the original Westwood Studios team that worked on the original Command & Conquer games. That means the original creators are once again at the helm for the popular strategy series. Furthermore, Command & Conquer Remaster will bring back the original music from the series with the help of original composer Frank Klepacki, and Tiberian Sons, a video game remix band.
Command & Conquer Remaster will be available digitally, but special edition physical copies will be sold through Limited Run Games.
