Finally! I loved Descent 1&2 in the nineties.

In early May 2019, Descendent Studios' homepage was taken offline and multiplayer servers for game builds stopped responding. Unofficial posts by a developer from Descendent Studios indicated that all development on the game had been completely halted, this being due to financial and legal issues that developed between Descendent Studios and the publisher Little Orbit. The original posts were deleted, but YouTuber Montoya documented the posts and history of the development woes in a video uploaded to his channel.[14]

Little Orbit initiated legal action against Descendent Studios in January 2020, alleging the studio of breach of contract, negligent representation, fraud, and libel. Little Orbit asserts that the studio had lied about the state of the Descent license from Interplay when it entered the publishing deal in September 2017, having come to believe since that Interplay has revoked the license from Descendent, and sought at least US$2 million in damages from the studio.[15] The following month, the developers reiterated that the game is not cancelled and expressed hope of eventually releasing the game at an undetermined future date.

I still play the originals. Still just as fun now as when I was a kid. I cannot wait to see more. This looks amazing. I cannot express how excited I am to play a new version of this game. What a breathe of fresh air, this is a genre that has been mission for too long.

Descent was one of the first games I played as a child and I still have fond memories of it. It's such a cool, simple and niche concept few games exist like it. I was looking forward to this game but shame it ended up being vaporware :( Maybe a few years down the road someone else will try again.

Lol, I have spotted footage from one of my Descent 3 videos. I could immediately tell because it say "Ass" instead of "Rear View" on the rear view camera XD
And nah, I don't mind that you used it :P

[RandomlyDrumming]

oh yes!!! I've been waiting 15 years for this, god dammit! :)

[tommy-hogd]

Oh my god...i'm...i'm crying... Descent 2 was one of the greatest games i ever played on my ps1...when the disk broke it took me 7 years and cypher501 for me to find gog. But still. Getting a new descent game with 600, 000$ kickstarter is amazing. Thank you so much dude. If you want when i get a newly built PC i want to help any way i can

[DarkSquaRe]

WOW guy's, this is an awsome trailer. The oldskool and new footage of Underground
combined with the awsome soundtrack it almost made me cry of joy. (maybe a little tear then. 8))
I even did not know that Overload was out until today, when i was wondering what was of the Descent franchise nowadays. (Damn you Steam for not letting me know all those years)
So i both Overload immediately. Looks totaly awsome. So i looked up some early gameplay of Underground.
And i have to say that footage does not look as great as the footage you guy's show in this trailer, nor as Overload. Overload trailer did give me the feeling of Descent from the 90's.
For short, the cool and stunning graphics actionpacked spaceshooter we all love so mutch.
The gameplay footage of Underground (on youtube) lacked that punch a bit. But the 29sec teaser you guy's posted on you're website gives me more hope.
So for now i don't really know what to think about Underground. Will have to wait and see i gues.
I was 14y when Descent 1 came out (MSdos) and i still love all those games today. ♥♥♥

Oh yeah! Finally! In all the years of advancing in video gaming since Descent 3, I've still never found anything that quite like it. So happy it's coming back.

[MichaelKrishtopa]

Yeah, guys, i love you! Let's back the LEGEND!!!

[BigCormorant]

I reaaaallly hope the music is just as epic as in descent 1

[BradiKal]

this just makes me want to play the origninal Descent II

[Renatonvidia]

That epic moment, decent threw my whole childhood, now in 2016 recalling old times . Show.

[DANRYX]

Hate to sound pessimistic but I'm only preordering if it has the original graphics (upscaled to 1080p and maybe even a 16:9 ratio of course) and original midi soundtrack as an option. That game was what got me into hardcore gaming and that soundtrack is my all time favourite midi score of any game to this day. I want to be brought back to what left such a huge impact on me more so than just a modern sci fi fps flight game with descent aesthetics. I'm really hoping they do this.

[GazixVR]

No They are making a new Descent game!?!?!?!?!?!?! SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

[TommyRayzer]

Not sure why this was recommended to me way out here in 2023. But hey ho.

[Killbuni-theOnly]

Awesome reedit guys and some great new footage just one more day to go fingers crossed ;)

[thehiddenpaw]

This is gonna have to be amazing to live up to Descent 1 and 2. I played Overload, as well. It's a decent game, but, didn't like the story, and it's just not like the originals, at all. The feel is way off. For me, anyways. Still love the first two. The music, the atmosphere, the gameplay are all just perfect, even to this day.

MY I Can't f**kin believe Descent is my alltime favorite childhood And now there's a another I'm gonna fuckin
