Descent Franchise Returns with Descent: Underground

Descendent Studios announced today it will reboot the Descent franchise with its upcoming first-person vehicle shooter, Descent: Underground, for PC. A Kickstarter for the new project can be found at http://descendentstudios.com/ks.

The unique six-degrees-of-freedom game play has all but vanished… until now. Descent: Underground will bring the gaming experience back and add upgraded gameplay and features including Voxel technology, customizable ships, team and individual play, changeable maps, special weapons and upgrades, and more.

The game is being spearheaded by Eric “Wingman” Peterson, who has worked on the Wing Commander franchise, as well as Starlancer, and more recently as the President of Production for Cloud Imperium Games, the company behind the crowdfunded Star Citizen.
