Red Alert 2 Online is a community-powered version of a legendary PC real-time strategy game that features completely upgraded version of online experience, allowing users from all around the world to experience this title the way it was intended to be played – in a great online environment where the skills of the players can be showcased without any roadblocks. Originally developed by Westwood Studios and published by EA Games in 2000, this cult classic of the RTS genre managed to immediately capture the attention of worldwide PC audiences. Today, more than two decades after its original release, Red Alert 2 is still regarded as the most popular game in the Red Alert franchise and is also regarded as one of the best games in the entire Command & Conquer franchise.

The story and setting of the Red Alert 2 Online are set directly after the end of the original game, where a time-traveling experiment has reshaped the course of history and caused the rise of alternate World War II in which Allied Nations of Europe and USA fought the invasion of Soviet forces. Told in a traditional fashion of two separate campaigns, this game manages to up the production values, add new tactic elements, and provide a better gameplay experience than was available in the original game.

The gameplay features are also following the core elements that were formed in the original. The two playable factions feature a distinct set of structures and units, all balanced toward the particular combat tactics that those factions promote. For example, while Soviet infantry is cheap and can be quickly made in large quantities, Allied forces utilize more mobile and versatile armored tanks. While the Soviets may have a slight advantage in early and mid-game with their cheap infantry and very slow and sturdy vehicles, Allies get the slight power edge in the very end game with several highly technological warfare solutions.

In 2005, Electronic Arts passed the control of the online elements of Red Alert 2 to the community, which has rallied and formed the feature-rich service called CnCNet. Through this service, players of Red Alert 2 Online can access features such as server browser, chat lobbies, in-depth configuration tools, modern data communication tunneling technology, and full compatibility with modern versions of Microsoft Windows OS (including Windows 10).

It is important to note that access to Red Alert 2 Online servers powered by CnCNet requires the presence of Yuri's Revenge, an official expansion pack of base RA2 game.
