A big thanks to
CNCNZ for digging this one up in the
Official C&C Forums: according to the January issue of
Game Informer magazine, EA has been developing a new Command & Conquer FPS - succinctly named "
Tiberium" - to be released sometime in 2008. The
post on the EA Forums has some pictures of the magazine. French fansite CnCSaga also has some images
you'll want to check out. And a Petroglyph employee
confirms that this is a game he worked on at EA a couple of summers ago.
According to the article, "Tiberium" is set 11 years after the end of the Third Tiberium War. You play as Ricardo Vega, "armed with the GD-10, a transformative, four-in-one weapon capable of dealing punishment under any circumstance." Not too much else is known about the game aside from what can be gleaned from photographs, so if you happen to pick of a copy of the magazine
stop by and let us know.
"Tiberium is our force, it's our one ring to rule them all, it's our matrix." -- Chris Plummer, Executive Producer
