Red Alert 2: Apocalypse Rising brings the exciting storyline and epic clashes from the classic Westwood Studios game, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 to realm of first person shooters, with a twist. We've remained loyal to the style and feel of the 2000 classic, while integrating content from its expansion Yuri's Revenge with a bit of updated history to add to the mix. Built off the W3D engine Westwood Studios built for classics such as Earth & Beyond and Command & Conquer: Renegade finished up in 2001, we help bring the fight to you as you play out your role as any one of a number of infantry classes participating in team-based combat that often involves land, sea, and air combined-arms clashes that just don't happen in any other game. Oh, and did we mention it's FREE?

Main Menu


dtrngd has been working hard on AR's main menu. It's basically a reproduction of the RA2 menu, but with a few changes to make it fit in to AR. Once it's done, it should look awesome!

dtrngd based the AR menu on TheKGBspy's RA2 Vengeance version, then added his own flair to it, turning it into something awesome. Take a look!

We are in need of graphics for various menus and stuff, since the RA2 menu graphics are starting to look a bit tired these days and we need things such as win banners, help menus and menu backgrounds. So if there are any good photoshoppers out there, send One_Winged_Angel and dtrngd a pm!

Harrier Ingame


dtrngd has rigged up the Harrier and has begun testing it ingame. This is properly exciting because we've got our first flying vehicle ingame. We're still deciding it's payload, but we're interested on what you guys think.

Have some screenies!

Repair IFV


dtrngd has also been modelling the Repair variant of the IFV. He's been a busy guy! If you stick an engineer in the IFV you can switch to this mode. It repairs buildings and vehicles. Technicians get a separate IFV mode which just repairs buildings.

Take a look at the awesomeclaw below!
