Generals was perhaps the most impressive Command & Conquer title since the days of Red Alert, so it's fitting that a sequel to Generals was chosen for the franchise hand-over to BioWare Victory. Generals 2 is set for a PC release in 2013 and is powered by Battlefield 3's Frostbite 2.0 engine.The official blurb sets the tone: "World leaders are mere seconds away from signing a peace treaty and bringing an end to a global war when a devastating terrorist attack rips through the conference, killing everyone in attendance, leaving only the world's military superpowers in control.
"It's up to you to assume their roles, take command of their forces and conquer global terrorism once and for all. Players will take control of three unique factions in a thrilling single-player campaign, and with friends online in cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes."
Ray Muzyka, General Manager of EA's BioWare label said "We're bringing BioWare's vision for emotionally engaging gameplay and great attention to quality to the strategy genre and the Command & Conquer franchise.
"I am excited to welcome BioWare Victory to our label. They are a great addition and the team is working hard to make sure Generals 2 truly immerses and engages players into this intense, gritty, modern war experience."
Exec producer, Jon Van Caneghem, added that "For the last eight years, Command & Conquer fans have been begging for a return to the Generals universe. With Generals 2, we are bringing the Command & Conquer franchise back to its roots, blending strategic gameplay with fast-paced action -- all set in visually stunning theaters of war powered by Frostbite 2."
