EA Officially Confirms Kane's Wrath News

Revealed earlier in the week courtesy of the BattleCast PrimeTime premiere, EA Games today officially lifted the wraps on the first Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars expansion pack.

"The reaction to Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars has been tremendous. Fans and critics alike appreciated the combination of fast, fluid, and fun RTS game play with a deep story and the classic full-motion video sequences that are a hallmark of the Command & Conquer series," said Mike Verdu, VP and Executive Producer at EA Los Angeles (EALA). "I'm excited that we're able to return to the Tiberium universe with Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath. This expansion has an impressive new single player campaign, a new global strategic layer that adds depth to the familiar Command & Conquer style gameplay, and several fun, all-new toys that range from versatile combat soldiers to giant armoured walkers."

Throwing Kane into the centre, Kane's Wrath features an all-new single-player campaign that spans 20 years from the rebirth of the Brotherhood of Nod after the Second Tiberium War through the events of the Third Tiberium War and beyond. Joe Kucan, the original actor behind Kane, will reprise his role as the megalomaniacal leader, in a series of new high-definition live action video sequences.

The expansion pack will also introduce a new strategic layer to the gameplay, allowing players to establish bases, customise armies and attack their opponents on a global scale. Kane Wrath's will also include six new sub-factions, and an array of new GDI/Nod/Scrin units, structures and powers.

The expansion pack will also make an appearance on the Xbox 360 with the promise of an all-new control system (seems EA LA is never happy).
