Red Alert 3 Launch Imminent

Just a heads up that two retail versions of this game are due at the end of this month just a few days after the US release. So micromanage your calendars and mark down the 31st of October. The following is only relevant to the PC version of the game, but XBOX 360 fans will only have to wait until mid next month to get their own paws on the game.

Here is some shameless copy and paste from the official propaganda machine:

Aside from the standard edition of Red Alert 3, EA is also offering die-hard Red Alert and Command & Conquer fans the Red Alert 3 Premier Edition – a limited edition package that includes a bonus DVD with over an hour of exclusive content, including interviews with the cast and a behind the scenes look at the shooting of the game’s cinematic sequences. The Premier Edition is also packed full of additional Red Alert 3 goodness, including exclusive multiplayer maps, strategy tips from the development team, the official soundtrack and an exclusive beta key to a future Command & Conquer game. For fans of the series who want to reserve their version of the Premier Edition or regular edition now, EA is also offering the following special pre-order package:
