Stomped chats with Mark Skaggs of Westwood Studios as he talks about Command and Conquer: Yuri's Revenge, the upcoming mission pack for their hit RTS game C&C: Red Alert.
Stomped: What kinds of maps and missions will there be for the expansion?
Skaggs: We've added 14 new solo campaign missions to the expansion pack, played on familiar and exotic cities, such as San Francisco, Hollywood, Seattle, London, Cairo, Transylvania, and even the moon. In all of them, the player will be charged with defeating Yuri and his psychic army before they take over the world.
Stomped: What is multiplayer looking like for the game?
Skaggs: Multiplayer was an important part of RA2 and we will expand on it a bit for Yuri’s revenge. We've added 10 new co-op missions to play with a buddy and players that want to play Yuri's Revenge on Westwood Online will also have their own dedicated tournament and ladder system. Additionally, there will be a new CO-OP Quick Match mode where players can quickly team up to battle the enemy.
Stomped: What is the current status of the mission pack and when do you expect to release it?
Skaggs: We are working toward feature lock at the moment and should be releasing it in the Fall of 2001. [more] |
