A classic Star Wars shooter has received a substantial overhaul thanks to The Force Engine, a fan project three years in the making.
Star Wars: Dark Forces has been around for literal decades, and yet the force is still strong for this iconic shooter even 30 years later.
I remember waiting for the original to release 30 years ago and receiving my monthly copy of PCGamer magazine packed full of demos, including this game and all sorts of interesting software… good times!
Nothing like thinking back to realise how shitty the world has become these days.
Dark Forces, one of the most influential FPSs in videogaming history, hits a milestone in 2025.
Experience the classic adventure anew with Star Wars: Dark Forces Remaster, launching Feb 28, 2024, on all major platforms with enhanced visuals and gameplay.
Thank you again NIGHTDIVE for making a remaster of one my favorite PS1 games Darlk Forces ! definitely buying this on day one . Even John Romero had given Dark Forces high praise back in the 90s .
Let's get remakes/remasters of the Jedi Knight series and some more sequels to that franchise too.
I love seeing things like this.
I didn't have a proper gaming PC growing up, so I missed out on the badass 90s/early 2000s gaming scene.
It's a blast going back and experiencing these classics. Let alone everything the mod scene has been doing for them.
ThIs game is a true gem of the 90's! Very fond memories of playing Dark Forces over at a friends house, on a reasonsble good PC at the time as well! So good! Beat the PlayStation version a few years back as well, which was a interesting port! Will definitely look into this project at some point in time!
