Gearboxs beautiful Homeworld remake reaches PCs February 25th If youre a long-time PC gamer, you probably have a soft spot for the Homeworld series. Relics epic saga was both eye-catching and proof that real-time strategy could work in the void of space. However, time hasnt been kind to the games -- the first came out when 3D graphics cards were relatively new, and THQs acquisition of Relic (plus its eventual bankruptcy) made follow-ups difficult. At last, though, youll have a way to relive the Motherships journey while doing justice to your modern gaming rig. Gearbox, which bought the rights to the series, has revealed that its previously teased Homeworld Remastered Collection will reach the PC on February 25th. The remake spruces up just about every aspect of the two Homeworld games, ranging from much better-looking ship models and effects to reworked cutscenes. You also get a beta multiplayer experience that merges the online modes of both titles. And what about a truly new game? Thats coming, too. Blackbird Interactive (a studio founded by Homeworld vets) is teaming up with Gearbox to make a prequel, Homeworld Shipbreakers. Nearly everything about the new entry is a mystery since its still early in development, but the announcement hints that there will be plenty more to do once youre done replaying the originals.
