About
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 - Yuri's Revenge released in 2001 as an expansion to the beloved real-time strategy game. This utilities title delivers classic RTS gameplay where you build bases, manage resources, and command armies in a fictional Cold War setting. The campaign follows the conflict against the mind-controlling villain Yuri and his plot for world domination, making it a standout entry in the Command & Conquer franchise.
Running Yuri's Revenge is extremely accessible by modern standards, requiring only an entry-level GPU with a benchmark score around 9638 and a CPU score of approximately 4064. You'll easily achieve high FPS on contemporary hardware, even with older graphics cards, and the game performs smoothly at maximum settings on most systems. With just 4 GB RAM minimum, this classic strategy title has minimal performance demands and won't require any GPU optimization or graphics compromises.
If you appreciate retro strategy games and compelling single-player campaigns, Yuri's Revenge is worth playing. Its 82/100 rating reflects solid design and engaging gameplay that still holds up well for fans of the genre, despite its age.
Performance profile
Released in October 2001, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 - Yuri's Revenge comes from the DirectX 9 era. Even the cheapest modern discrete GPU crushes it at maxed-out settings; the only real bottleneck today is CPU single-thread speed on older titles that were never multi-threaded.
Mid-range territory. An RTX 3060 or RX 6700 XT delivers 60 FPS at 1080p High in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 - Yuri's Revenge. For 1440p Ultra you'll want an RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT; 4K Ultra needs an RTX 4070 Ti or faster.
Storyline
The storyline picks up right where the canonical Allied ending from Red Alert 2 left off. While the Allies concentrated on regaining territory and fighting off forces loyal to the now former Soviet Premier Romanov, the latter's advisor Yuri secretly raised an army of his own, using his immense knowledge of psionics and genetic mutation. As Yuri announces his presence and plans, a global network of devices called psychic dominators comes online in an attempt to enslave the entire world. The American president Dugan orders an air strike to destroy one of these devices on Alcatraz island, and although the attack failed, a crashed Harrier damaged the device's power supply. As all other psychic dominators go online, the Allies attempt to power a time machine to stop these events from occurring. At this point in the storyline, the player chooses to side with the Allies, or to join the Soviets and steal the time machine to also defeat Yuri, but at the same time restore the Soviet Union to power. Yuri's army does not get a singleplayer campaign, which is the first and only time in a series where a playable faction does not get singleplayer content.
