In a past almost forgotten, your race lost the fight against alien invaders, and the survivors had to take refuge in a remote, inhospitable corner of the galaxy. After many generations had passed, the time to return has come, but the road is full of dangers, as former invaders have returned and have no intention to step down without a fight.

The game has changed the concept of 3D with respect to real-time strategy. Complete freedom in setting the camera makes it impossible – once we’ve dealt with the initial difficulties in mastering the interface – to stop wondering why no one had come up with such a perfect idea before. We can choose among a whole range of vessels: from maneuverable fighters and supporting units to powerful star cruisers and aircraft carriers. Excellent graphics, which make each vessel beautifully presented regardless of the zoom scale, and an epic story make Homeworld feel more like an excellent sci-fi movie than a great computer game that it is.
