About

Unvanquished is a real-time strategy game played as a first-person shooter where evolving aliens and heavily armed humans fight for their survival. Become a marine, handle your big weapon and dress that impressive exoskeleton to save the human race like a boss. Or if you prefer, be a monstrous beast and save those cute grangers from those two-legged invaders who only know how to turn beautiful organic equilibrium into lifeless machines and dead concreted worlds. Unvanquished is an actively maintained evolution of the Tremulous game, based on the Dæmon game engine with 20 years of development added to the Tremulous gameplay and the Quake 3 engine.
