YURI'S REVENGE: PRESS RELEASE LAS
VEGAS, April 13, 2001 - Following the
phenomenal success of Command & Conquer™ Red Alert™ 2, Westwood
Studios™ announced today it will release the official expansion pack this
fall, Command & Conquer Yuri's Revenge. The PC CD-ROM mission disk will be
part of the EA GAMES™ brand from Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:ERTS). Yuri's
Revenge is the largest expansion pack in Westwood's history, adding to the
real-time strategy game new Allied units, new Soviet units, new single-player
campaigns, new multiplayer features, new co-operative campaigns, an hour of
filmed story sequences, and an entirely new side: an Army lead by the mysterious
psychic warrior, Yuri. In the
original Red Alert 2, Yuri was a controllable unit on the Soviet side. For the
mission disk, Yuri breaks from the Soviets and launches his own bid for world
domination through psychic technology. Players will take command of a
time-traveling task force and go back in time to unravel Yuri's evil plot. "We were thrilled with the success of Red Alert 2 and really wanted to build on the game play for the expansion pack, rather than just add missions," said Mark Skaggs, executive producer of Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge. "This is the largest, most involved expansion pack in Westwood's history, and we're bringing some really exciting game play to our fans." |
