Mike Glosecki has also said of Command & Conquer 4 that “With its objective-based multiplayer mode, persistent player progression and all-in-one mobile base, players will experience Command & Conquer like never before.”

The game will include two campaigns, which players will be able to enjoy in either single-player or cooperative mode, and will also feature a new 5v5 objective-based multiplayer mode.
