EA has announced that it is launching an expansion pack for Command Conquer 3.

The new expansion pack, to be titled Command and Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath returns to the Tiberium universe with Kane at the centre of an epic new single player campaign.

“The reaction to Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars has been tremendous”, said Mike Verdu, VP and Executive Producer at EA Los Angeles (EALA).

The new single player campaign will allow players to experience a new story from the rebirth of the Brotherhood of Nod after the Second Tiberium War through the events of the Third Tiberium War and beyond.

According to EA, "Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath also features a new strategic layer to gameplay that allows players to establish bases, build customized armies, and attack their enemies on a global scale".

The game is said to also introduce six new sub-factions and a wealth of new units, structures, and powers to the armies of the Global Defence Initiative, the Brotherhood of Nod, and the enigmatic alien Scrin.

The Xbox 360 version of Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath will debut a new radial interface designed specifically for console gamers.

Developed at EALA, Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath will ship in early 2008 for Windows PC and the Xbox 360.
