* FranchiseOwnershipAcquisition: The Command and Conquer franchise of Westwood Studios fame was originally owned by Virgin Games, who purchased Westwood in 1992, three years before [[VideoGame/CommandAndConquerTiberianDawn the first entry of the franchise]]. The studio, along with the franchise, changed hands in 1998 to Creator/ElectronicArts. After Westwood dissolved in 2003, EA continued to own the franchise and make additional entries via various in-house development studios all the way until 2012. In 2020, EA licensed out the first two games to Petroglyph Games, founded by former Westwood staff, for remastering.
