New Steam RTS is basically a surprise Command and Conquer sequel

www.pcgamesn.com Command and Conquer is back, basically, in a new RTS available to play on Steam

Command and Conquer may be missing in action, but a new Steam RTS serves as the spiritual return of Red Alert, Tiberian Dawn, and the other ‘90s classics.

I realise I should link the game to allow people to skip the clickbait title

Game: Tempest Rising
- Thanks, it's incomprehensible how OP didn't even manage to mention it in either the title or the blurb up above. Is he a bot or something?
  
  And why does he keep calling it "Steam RTS"? Kind of suggests it was developed by Valve.
  
  Its not a surprise either, these guys have put out a couple preview trailers and have been promoting the game for like a year now. Looks cool, been on my wish list for awhile

But does it have Kane???

I'm not super interested in classic RTS anymore, thanks to 4X, but I'll keep an eye out for it and try the playtest. I still have my doubts that it will capture the same charm as the original C&C though. Especially someone like Kane will be hard to replace, and I feel he was such a big face for NOD that drove the whole story & mysteries forward.

Looks interesting. It basically looks like a new C&C, which is a good thing. Apparently they have opened up playtesting according to my Steam, so let's see how things are going

Nice one, I miss playing those games. Any idea of format?
- What do you mean by format? I played it at PAX.
  
  How’d you like it?

The good guys are even called GDF. Im looking forward to it. Checkout the demo on Steam, it's available to everyone.

Tempest Rising, for those who didn't click.
