Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 is a 2.5D real-time strategy computer game by Westwood Studios,
which was released for Microsoft Windows on September 28, 2001 as the follow up to Command & Conquer: Red Alert. Set in the early 1970s, Red Alert 2 supposedly picks up at the conclusion of the Allied campaign of the first game, but this has been subject to debate.
Its expansion is Command & Conquer: Yuri's Revenge.

Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2 contains 2 playable factions, Soviets and Allies which both previously appeared in Command & Conquer: Red Alert.
Red Alert 2's single player campaign is structured in an alternate-ending mode as opposed to a progressive story mode.
