Joe Kucan plays Kane in Command & Conquer.

Command & Conquer Remastered Collection debuts on Steam and Origin on June 5

Twenty years ago, I remember interviewing Joe Kucan, an emerging star of video game acting, for his role as the villainous Kane of Command & Conquer. His bald head and mean face epitomized why the player had to save the world from this evil.

And now he’s coming back. Kane and all of his vivid video game cinematics will be available in Command & Conquer: Remastered Collection, which publisher Electronic Arts says will be available June 5 worldwide on the PC via Origin and Steam. The collection itself is $20 while the special physical edition is $60, and a 25th Anniversary edition is $150.
