Introducing Command & Conquer Rivals

The C&C series is of course one of the most important strategy games for the PC. In fact, many of today’s real-time strategy games borrow directly from these games.

EA also has an actual unlisted gameplay overview video available for those who are curious. Although, even this one did not fare well either with over 8.2K dislikes versus only 248 likes:
