Electronic Arts has taken a momentous step by open-sourcing the code for four legendary Command & Conquer games. Command & Conquer, Command & Conquer: Red Alert, Command & Conquer: Renegade, and Command & Conquer: Generals are now publicly available on GitHub under an open-source license. This generous move empowers fans and developers to delve into, modify, and improve these cherished classics.
Furthermore, EA has integrated Steam Workshop support into newer Command & Conquer titles utilizing the SAGE engine, including Kane's Wrath and Red Alert 3. This integration streamlines the creation and sharing of custom content, fostering a thriving community-driven ecosystem.
Although EA may not be actively developing new Command & Conquer games at this time, the franchise retains immense popularity with its dedicated fanbase. By releasing the source code and bolstering modding tools, EA is enabling passionate players to revitalize the series. This initiative could also spark renewed interest from a new generation of gamers eager to explore or contribute to the rich history of Command & Conquer.
