Acerca de este juego

Launch your heavily armed Star-Fighter into devastating battles across the galaxy in an intense on-the-rails space shooter. Take the role of a skilled fighter pilot assigned to the Interstellar Battleship Alastrius, the only capital ship still fighting for the Republic following a sudden coup d'état. Your mission is simple; blast a path through numerous enemy strongholds, liberate the capital world Velora and restore the Republic. However the enemy forces are vast and they will throw every weapon they have in your path.

The Battleship Alastrius carries a diverse range of playable Star-Fighters from nimble, lightly armed ships to hulking goliaths. When a Star-Fighter is lost in combat its gone for the rest of the campaign so choose your fighters for each mission wisely. The game begins with three different Star-Fighters with a further seven that can be unlocked.

Each Star-Fighter is equipped with multiple Laser Cannons able to shred through enemies, even at long range. If more firepower is needed powerful homing Missiles can make short work of even the toughest targets and if that's not enough the Star-Fighters arsenal of Bombs can devastate everything in a vast area.

From lush green forests to vast deserts, explore bottomless icy glaciers and broken volcanic mining worlds. Plot a course through 16 different planets, space stations, nebulae and other hazardous locations as you guide the Battleship Alastrius back to its home world. With numerous different missions, storyline developments and secret routes it will take many playthroughs to discover everything.

The devious Imperium have usurped almost the entire Republic military and will throw hordes of forces at you including drones, fighters, tanks, boats, turrets, mines and traps. Find your enemies weakpoints to destroy them efficiently and rack up impression mission high scores. Can you earn a Gold Medal in every Mission?

Saving the most insane superweapons to the end of every mission these hulking war machines will test your skills. Depending on your path a different boss may be poised to strike.

Familiarise yourself with the Star-Fighters controls and weapons systems by taking on the Training Simulator. You have been assigned a Dispatch Officer onboard the battleship Alastrius; Rahalla who is fully voice acted will be your loyal companion guiding your Star-Fighter through the Training Simulator. Rahalla will also guide you through all the campaign missions, sharing developments as the civil war unfolds.
