In this update, the we would like to talk about our starfields. In keeping with the tradition of Wing Commander, we have tried to make space look like more than an empty void with background stars merely for reference.

Rather, we portray it as being filled with beautiful starscapes, planets, and astronomical phenomena with unique features for each starsystem. The in-game visual experience is amazing. Each star system has it's own backdrop, giving each one an individual flair. We invite you to take a look at some of our astral vistas...

I look back at how far the backgrounds have come and I'm just amazed. From the early production days, when the team was still learning how to use the technology, seeing the early iterations (all blurry and green-ish), watching our backgrounds evolve, some getting cut, others making the grade; the entire process is thoroughly mind boggling.

I have to say, though it will undoubtedly come off as a little biased, Wing Commander Saga is one of the most fun games I've played in a very long time. Wing Commander Saga is polished, beautiful and fun. The gameplay offers this tight experience that I still enjoy playing - and trust me, I've played this game for the past ten years.
