Command and Conquer: Rivals has been announced at the EA Play 2018, which is EA's presentation for E3. Technically is a capped real time strategy game created by EA Redwood Studios, where base building is very limited. You have to harvest resources and build an army to control a missile launcher structure in the center of the map. If you control it when the missile is ready, you'll launch a missile at the enemy's construction yard. Who hits the enemy's construction yard twice wins. It is GDI vs Nod inspired by somehere in the timeline between Tiberian Dawn and Tiberian Sun, although no accuracy can be expected when Seth and Oxanna are alive in the same game as Nod Generals, unless one of them also lives in death. You can also destroy the ememy's base with your units, but it seems to be quite hard to do it. There is no sign of single player campaign, storyline or anything, although there will be single player matches and challenges. The game should rely on microtransactions where players will be able to buy better units to use in their armies, so microtransactions will affect the ballance of the game. And the game should be playable on mobile systems (iOS and Android), as it was shown in a demo with 2 random RTS players on the stage. Android users may sign up at the Google Play Store to try to play the pre-alpha as soon as it launches. Here's the official trailer of the game.
