The World Trade Center (known also as the Twin Towers) is a major site in New York City. It appeared in the Soviet campaign for Red Alert 2 and in the Yuri's Revenge skirmish map Manhattan Mayhem, in the northern section, where they are severely damaged.

History[]

Third World War (Red Alert 2)[]

RA2Sovietlogo The following is based on the Soviet campaign of Red Alert 2 and might contradict canon.
Comrade General, the Premier requests that you capture the pathetic capitalist shrine of New York called the World Trade Center.
- Zofia(src)

The Soviet Commander was sent by Yuri to New York City. The Soviet troopers acted fast and captured the battle lab that was built between the Twin Towers in order to construct the first Psychic Beacon in its place.

Trivia[]

  • Originally, Yuri's Revenge was due to release in September, but was delayed after the game went gold.[1] It is assumed that since after the real-world 9/11 attacks, the cover art that featured annihilated civilian buildings like in the original Red Alert 2 seemed inappropriate. The packages for both Red Alert 2[2] and Yuri's Revenge were changed, but some markets ultimately received prints with the original cover.
