Activision Blizzard today released three major sequels for their largest gaming franchises, each likely to sell hundreds of thousands of copies and expand content for a phenomenal base of active gamers.

World of Warcraft, with over ten million subscribers and more than 60% of the MMORPG worldwide share, has opened its servers to the second expansion, entitled Wrath of the Lich King.

Wrath of the Lich King adds a host of content to the existing game world. Players will be able to explore a vast new continent, and battle other high-level heroes to determine the fate of Azeroth. This expansion has been in beta for some time now, and you can read our previous findings here.

The wait is almost over. The return to the over-the-top, time-altered universe of Red Alert – where parachuting armoured bears, George Takei, war dolphins and psionic Japanese school girls can co-exist without question – is almost here!

EA Los Angeles is announcing today that Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 has gone gold for the PC and will ship to retail stores in North America on October 28th, and will be released in New Zealand on November 14th.

Red Alert 3 brings back everything fans enjoy about the series, from the fast, fluid and fun gameplay, to the humorous tone and distinct art style, while adding new innovations for the entire genre including three separate campaigns designed for fully co-operative play and an unprecedented emphasis on naval gameplay. And it would not be a Red Alert game without live-action cinematics featuring the largest cast in the history of video games, starring in over an hour’s worth of high-definition movies, including the likes of Gemma Atkinson, Gina Carano, Randy Couture, Tim Curry, Kelly Hu, Jenny McCarthy, Jonathan Pryce, Autumn Reeser, J.K. Simmons, Peter Stormare, George Takei and more.

Electronic Arts have released a new "remix" trailer for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3, their upcoming RTS title due to be released for the PC and Xbox 360 platforms.

In Red Alert 3, the desperate leadership of a doomed Soviet Union travels back in time to change history and restore the glory of Mother Russia. The time travel mission goes awry, creating an alternate timeline where technology has followed an entirely different evolution, a new superpower has been thrust on to the world stage, and World War III is raging.
