I’ve always been a huge fan of the Command & Conquer series, but even I needed to do a quick search to remind myself about Command & Conquer: Tiberium Alliances before diving into this discussion. So, why has this game suddenly captured my interest today? The answer is actually quite straightforward.
In an unexpected move, EA just set up a Steam page for Tiberium Alliances (shoutout to PCGamesN for the heads-up), hinting at an imminent re-release.
Command & Conquer: Tiberium Alliances stands out as a unique entry in the long-running, albeit sadly overlooked, real-time strategy franchise. This title was a free-to-play MMO that operated directly through web browsers—remember when browser games were all the rage?
Going live in May 2012, it’s been more than a decade since it first launched, but it’s not the first game that springs to mind when you think of Command & Conquer.
The upcoming Steam version will also be free-to-play, maintaining the original’s strategic dimension—a feature typically absent from C&C games but central to Tiberium Alliances. It’ll be fascinating to watch how EA adapts the social aspects and friend-invite mechanisms from the browser version into this new desktop format.
In Tiberium Alliances, you can align with either the GDI or NOD factions, exploring their unique buildings, units, and defenses, all of which can be upgraded just like in the classic RTS titles.
The game’s strategic component is all about seizing territories, forming alliances with friends, and engaging in classic 2010s browser-style action, all of which seem set to reappear in the Steam version. As for when it will hit our screens, the Steam store page simply says “coming soon,” suggesting it might unexpectedly drop during a big event like The Game Awards.
While revisiting this relic of gaming history could be a fun nostalgia trip, what most C&C fans are really longing for are remasters of the series’ more iconic games. It felt kind of odd that the Command & Conquer Remastered Collection was it. There was a fleeting moment when it seemed like EA might delve into its vault and revive other classics, but nothing much has materialized since—unless you count earlier re-releases on Steam as revival attempts, which I don’t.
