Electronic Arts has reassured PLAYSTATION 3 owners that the “on hold ” status of Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 for the PS3 version and the lack of a PS3 version of Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath should not get us concerned.

In a new interview, Kane’s Wrath associate producer Jim Vessella said that EA Los Angeles is still “very interested” in the PLAYSTATION 3 and are “big fans” of the system.

She was asked why there was no PLAYSTATION 3 version of Kane’s Wrath:

“The PS3, it would just be extra development time we didn’t really have right now, so we could focus on the 360. And also specifically with Kane’s Wrath, because we’re building off of the foundation of Tiberium Wars it was just a natural transition to continue with the 360 exclusive development.

“Although we are very interested in the PS3. We’re big fans of the console. We’re definitely moving forward on that front for hopefully our future titles. You’ll have to talk to the Red Alert 3 team specifically about future plans for PS3 and also our future games going forward. So we’re definitely looking at the PS3, but for Kane’s Wrath, just not yet.”

She went on:

“I think that going forward in the near future we’ll be able to really focus on getting really good PS3 versions,” she said. “And that’s the other thing. We don’t want to just port it over to the PS3 without giving any care as to what really makes that console successful. We really want to put care and heart into every version that we do. And so we really want to be able to dive into PS3 and give it the attention it deserves. We’re really hoping that will happen pretty soon.”

Soon would be nice, recently games have been getting cancelled or put on hold left and right.
