Tiberium Twilight
A brief history of Command & Conquer
This was explored further in the highly-anticipated sequel, Tiberian Sun, which featured a 3D-like isometric engine for the first time.
Almost ten years have passed since then. That's nearly a decade devoid of Mammoth Tanks, ticking currency bars and the greatest bald dictator in all of gaming. Thankfully the wait is almost over. Next month the Tiberium Universe is set to make a triumphant return in Tiberium Wars - the biggest and most spectacular C&C yet.
In 2047 tiberium has blanketed the Earth. 30% of the planet is completely uninhabitable, with endless fields of alien landscape and violent ion storms blackening the skies. The rest of the world is covered in either partially habitable yellow zones or GDI-held blue zones, where the last refuges of the civilized world remain.
The infamous Kane returns (once again played by the legendary Joe Kucan) to lead the Brotherhood of Nod in the third Tiberium War and it's your job to stop him from turning the planet into nothing but a tiberium wasteland. You'll also face the mysterious alien Scrin for the first time.
The Command & Conquer universe is of course now presented in true 3D with a wealth of graphical effects helping to create the most atmospheric depiction of Tiberium-infested Earth yet. HD live-action cut-scenes also move the story along, with a cast of Hollywood favorites including sci-fi legend Michael Ironside and Billy Dee "Lando" Williams bringing the flaming politics of futuristic war to life.
