It is a time of desperation and despair. Still reeling from the ghastly toll of the Battle of Terra, humanity finds itself pushed closer and closer to the brink of extinction at the hands and claws of the savage Kilrathi Empire. The Confederation is trapped in a seemingly endless cycle of defeats, and hope is slipping away. Already, the Kilrathi are making their final preparations to finish off humanity once and for all. The end, it seems, is near.

In this setting, human drama is at its most extreme intensity. Hope, fear, desperation, courage, camaraderie, and loss are part of the daily struggle for the people who refuse to stop fighting, even in the face of seemingly inevitable defeat. This is humanity's greatest struggle, its defining moment. This is the Wing Commander Saga.

Features

  • Over nine hours of voice dialogue.
  • Approximately 70 cut scenes for a total of about 90 minutes of pre-rendered footage (not counting in-flight communications and command briefings).
  • Over 60 voice actors, some of whom are actual professionals.
  • 221 voice acting roles.
  • 55 missions.
  • Achievements (mission performance is evaluated and rewarded).
  • 90 models created for Saga.
  • Download size of 3,3 GB with an installation size of 8 GB.

The computer game which supplies the background world in which Wing Commander Saga is set is the all-time bestseller. We believe that familiarity with either one of the games (Wing Commander 1-4) or one of the novels (preferably End Run, Fleet Action, The Heart of the Tiger) will intensify enjoyment of the Wing Commander Saga.

This huge compilation of all-new music was created by our team of talented composers: Jeff Ball, Tim Janssens, Edward Bradshaw, Glyn R. Brown, Jeff Broadbent, and Peter Dmitriyev. As an added bonus, there are several deleted songs that are included in the archive. You know that's right.

We will also release a second album soon. It will be a collection of remastered Wing Commander 3 music, based on the originals composed by George Oldziey, whose electrifying soundtrack provided the inspiration for the original music created by our composers for Wing Commander Saga: The Darkest Dawn.


(Before watching, you are strongly encouraged to complete the main campaign. Certain surprises may be spoiled otherwise.)

Those who haven't played with PC space simulators might find the bevy of controls too much to handle. Here's a list of important Wing Commander Saga hotkeys and controls: Imbacore.blogspot.com The list is the core controls I use whenever I play the game.

I released my Wing Commander Saga Review a few days back. Here it is: Imbacore.blogspot.com I gave the game an 8.1. Arguably the most well-polished freeware ever.

Does anyone know of a good way to destroy skippers? I can't get to them fast enough when they decloak. ( By the way this game is the best space sim EVER!!!!)

I'm going to assume your on the mission where you have to protect the Battle Axe. I beat that mission by staying nearby the Kilrathi warship. Once I heard the sound of a missile launch I would start rapidly pressing the b key (this targets nearby bombs and bombers). Once I knew where the Skipper was I would take it out using missile and guns. Also once a skipper is damaged it will leave a visible trail even when cloaked.

The other option is to take out the missile tubes on the Kilrathi warships in the area.

Good Luck!

I assume you are using NOD32 anti-virus. Some anti-virus (most notably ESET NOD32) may report a false positive and detect wcsaga_sse2.exe as a virus/worm. Tell your anti-virus to omit this warning.
