EA compiles 13-game C&C Saga

Late last month, GameSpot confirmed with EA that the much-rumored sci-fi shooter in development at its LA studio was indeed set in the future-tech warfare universe of Command & Conquer. While that branch of the C&C story develops, EA is recapping what has come before to bring new fans up to speed and let old ones relive the series' history.

EA has announced the Command & Conquer Saga, a 13-game compilation of C&C games released since the series' inception 12 years ago. Included in the package are the original Command & Conquer, as well 1996's Red Alert, 1999's Tiberian Sun, and the most recent addition to the series, C&C3 Tiberium Wars. (An expansion proper to C&C3--Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath--will focus on the notoriously creepy Nod leader Kane and is due out in Q2 next year.)

Command & Conquer Saga will retail for $49.99 when it goes on sale later this month. In September, EA released Command & Conquer Gold for free, which is currently available for download on GameSpot.
