"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer with one word: Victory - Victory in spite of all terror, for without victory there is no survival."
-General James Solomon, GDI Supreme Commander

Metal and mud. The Marines of the Global Defense Initiative are one hell of a twenty-first century combat force. Tiberium may have ravaged the Earth into a global wasteland, but GDI's Orbital Command Center keeps watch over the toxic planet from high in the sky. And Earth is still home to the few and the proud.

But no Kane. In the years since Command and Conquer, Kane has become the stuff of lore. A legend told to bad marines when their squad leaders tuck them in at night. Only scattered factions of The Brotherhood remained.

Until now.

"It makes no sense. Hot Spots everywhere. Why attack Southwest Sector Nine?"

Suddenly, Kane is back on the map and lighting up radar like a Christmas tree. The Brotherhood of Nod have been making missiles - and you just don't want to know what the bad little boys and girls are getting this holiday season. GDI, with its crack Marines and high-tech, high-energy weapons, is prepared to counter with the ultimate global defensive.

"Not really a fair fight? Write a letter of complaint - if you make it out alive."

Kane may have a Brotherhood, but GDI are prepared - the few and the proud. Honor carries a Marine through combat hell. With high-tech defense systems, and high-energy weapons - The GDI marines aren't worried about holding their own against the Nod bad boys.

"How can you call yourself a great soldier when you love nothing?"
"I love to win." - GDI Marine

What GDI is worried about is saving the world for humanity. And there's nothing humane about Nod's experiments with genetic engineering. Manipulating Tiberium to mutate human DNA, Kane hopes to evolve a new breed of next-generation super-soldiers. In the process, he's created a dying mutant population, The Forgotten. Only GDI can help The Forgotten resistance save themselves.

"No one's ever seen anything like it, Gentlemen. It's Armageddon."

Kane has unlocked the power of Tiberium. Revived the great Nod armies. Reserved a dark future for mankind, and the world it calls home. And it stops right here.

Kane may be the greatest villain in the history of the human race. But he's no GDI marine.

"I'm going in, sir."
