In 2013, Electronic Arts shut down Victory Games and cancelled Command & Conquer Generals 2, taking away potentially the last shot CNC had at a proper new release. This is the full story of how one cancelled game signaled the downfall of one of the most iconic RTS franchises in history.

This is a full documentary on the development and cancellation of Generals 2 / Command & Conquer (2013). Covering Victory Games, the free-to-play pivot, EA's decision to cancel, and what it meant for the future of Command & Conquer.
