An iconic classic, fully remastered by the team at Nightdive Studios, through its proprietary KEX engine, allowing the game to run on modern gaming devices at up to 4K resolution at 120FPS.

STAR WARS™: Dark Forces Remaster is now out on GOG!

Expect all fourteen original levels, featuring Star Wars™ worlds and capital ships, engaging first-person ground combat featuring ten weapons and twenty types of enemies, Personal Digital Assistant (providing you with in game information such including map, inventory, and mission briefing), modern gamepad support, controller support, advanced 3D rendering, up to 4K 120FPS visuals, and much more!



The original 1995 STAR WARS™: Dark Forces raised the bar for FPS games, offering players a significant degree of movement and interactivity, a large selection of items and power-ups, and engaging environments.
In that iconic title you assume the role of Kyle Katarn, a defector of the Galactic Empire turned mercenary for hire. Katarn joins the Rebel Alliance’s covert operations division tasked with infiltrating the Galactic Empire, where he discovers the secret Dark Trooper Project. The development of this powerful new series of Imperial battle droids and power-armored stormtroopers stands to strengthen the Empire’s grip on the galaxy unless Katarn and the Rebel Alliance intervene.

With STAR WARS™: Dark Forces Remaster, every new and returning player will be able to enjoy all of that with upgraded gameplay, high-resolution textures, enhanced lighting and rendering, and support for gamepads.

That’s not all, though! For those who already own the classic STAR WARS™: Dark Forces – you get a -10% launch discount on the Remaster, until April 29th, 2 PM UTC!

Make sure to check it out – with Nightdive Studios behind the wheel, we couldn’t be more excited!

Atreyu666: The price is a bit steep, yes. But my question is: Does this game have quicksave/load (or manual) now or not?
Some of the maps are pretty big and I really don't want to replay almost an entire map just because I mad a mistake...
According to this review of PC Games (in German) there is only a checkpoint system.

This actually surprises me. The Force Engine together with the original game has a quicksave feature.
Considering bad control scheme on original DF, remaster makes sense for new comers. Finished original DF a few years back, game is great, but modern control would make experience better.

"29 bucks for a 29-years-old product."

Pong remaster confirmed for 2032 with a 60-bucks price. It helps (or not) that Atari owns Night Dive.

I feel it's funny the remaster is at the top of the sales chart for GOG (and presumably doing quite well on that OTHER store front) meanwhile most everyone in this thread balks at the price, one even suggesting that it's worth less than 2 dollars European.

Anyway, thanks Nightdive for knocking out of the park another remaster.
Never played the original. How long to finish is this game?

Yeah, somebody on Discord told me about the save system so I decided that I'll give this one a pass for now. I'll keep it on my WL and maybe buy it at a deep sale.

Thank you too :)

I just finished it in under 4 hours on medium difficulty, but DF's an old favorite of mine that I've completed several times before so I knew where to go and what to expect.
