What is Warsow?

Set in a futuristic cartoon-like world where rocketlauncher-wielding pigs and lasergun-carrying cyberpunks roam the streets, Warsow is a completely free fast-paced first-person shooter (FPS) for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.

Speed and movement, that's what Warsow is all about. Like a true cyberathlete you jump, dash, dodge and walljump your way through the game. Grab those power-ups before your enemy does, plant the bomb before anyone sees you, and steal the enemy's flag before anyone knows what's going on!

A handful of popular gametypes come shipped with Warsow, like Capture the Flag, Team Deathmatch, Clan Arena, Instagib and Duel. Warsow invites you to add to this list, by creating your own custom gametypes with the brand new gametype scripting system!

What is new in Warsow 0.5?

With version 0.5 Warsow reaches a major milestone in its development. Feature-wise and technically, Warsow is now more complete, stable and polished than ever. Countless improvements, additions, changes and tweaks have been made in the visuals, gameplay and engine features of Warsow.

Congrats on .5 team!
It looks like it will change the movement up a bit and make it easier to kill people thanks to the stun feature. Hopefully the movement is still fluid and fast. I still have to check it out but the trailer was amazing. So glad this game is still being worked on!

See everyone online :)

This is fantastic, spent like half of my lessons in college first year playing this on a LAN server with all my mates.

Such good memories, one of the greatest FPS games EVER! Nice going :)

You creators should be so proud :)

*Wish I voted for this as one of the best free FPS of all time*
Such an amazingly fun FPS that really holds its grounds against the classics. I am sad that I found out about this game so late in its life, I hope it stays alive for a long time!
