Return to the Mothership



<span class="bold">Homeworld Remastered Collection</span>, containing the legendary space RTSs turned instant classics, is now available, DRM-free on GOG.com with GOG Galaxy support for achievements and multiplayer, and a 50% launch discount.

Homeworld brought real-time strategy into actual 3D, creating a truly free-form tactical experience across battlefields vast in every dimension. It did so in a way that's not just manageable, but overwhelmingly fun! This engrossing space opera chronicles the struggles of an alien race, the Kushan, locked in a vicious conflict with a tyrannical empire as they make their way to the promised land.
Homeworld 2 expanded on the setting and story even further, while refining the overall gameplay and visual experience. Now the whole saga has been remastered, putting a fresh coat of paint and techno-magic over this timeless experience, so that new and veteran players alike can finally return safely to their true Homeworld. This version also includes the latest massive patch, which brings tons of radical changes to formations, ship behavior, gameplay balance, and more.

The Homeworld Remastered Collection includes both the classic and remastered editions of Homeworld & Homeworld 2.
Dedicated fans can also grab the remastered <span class="bold">soundtrack from both games</span>, available in MP3 and FLAC.



Engage in full-scale battle between vast 3D fleets in <span class="bold">Homeworld Remastered Collection</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. The 50% discount will last until June 10, 12:59 PM UTC.

Nice, can't afford it but nice.
Now I seem to remember they basically removed LAN play from the originals, is that correct?

tinyE: I just want to know how to download the originals. :P
When you find out, please let me know! Otherwise I'll have to put off playing Homeworld for another 10 years...

My junk computer can't handle the HD remastered versions!

This GOG Connect now has me wondering if they may have shot themselves in the foot . . .

Wishlist for a big sale for now since I have a copy, but no time to play it right now.

tinyE: Also I want to brag about the time I managed to steal a carrier. Those fuckers never saw it coming. XD

IAmSinistar: I love building my fleet by poaching vehicles. On that one level where there is an enemy facility protected by a sphere of beam satellites, I managed to boost about a dozen of the damn things, slowly drawing them out by triggering their pursuit routine one at a time. Those little Kadeshi harvesters make great additions too. :)
Yeh, I remember stealing pretty much every Ion Cannon frigate from that sphere and sending them to destroy the thing in the center. Had to scrap a load before hyperspace jumping as my fleet was too large.

And will do so again! Instabought.

Fantastic!

That brings the number of wishes or wishlist votes completed to 1.3 million. :)

EDIT: Oh, too bad - "Multiplayer is available only between GOG.com users."

Hopefully this'll be part of GOG Connect ;P

Nice to finally see this here. Wishlisted for now.

tinyE: That's not what I meant. :P I know they are included, but where?
I don't see separate downloads for them.

omega64: In the launcher.
Crap, so much for me just downloading the originals separate to save space. :P

I'm guessing mine won't either.

Awesome release, and great to see Gearbox on board, hope to see more from them in the future!

And the leg. And the shoulder. And the chest. At the same time. :|

I already have the original Homeworld on a magazine DVD so i'll pass. :D

Great stuff! I got the Steam version in a Humble Bundle so I'll hold off on this one, but hopefully it'll make its way to Connect at some point.

Also, the thing with the classic versions being embedded in the full installer is the most ridiculous fucking thing I've ever heard. Who the fuck needs to install all four games in one go? I would hazard a guess that most users will only ever play either the Remastered or Classic versions, not both.

And where's Cataclysm?
