Forsaken was published by Acclaim Entertainment in 1998. The Windows and PlayStation versions were developed by Probe Entertainment, and the Nintendo 64 version was developed by Iguana Entertainment UK. A Saturn version was announced but never released.
Plot[]
In 2113, a scientific experiment gone wrong wrecks the Earth's atmosphere, making it uninhabitable. Subsequently, a few survivors return to loot all valuables left on the abandoned planet.
Gameplay[]
The game is very similar to the Descent series, it has six degrees of freedom movement which can be hard to get the hang of. The game has single player and multiplayer modes: the PC version allowed 16-player network multiplayer, the N64 allows four players on split-screen, and the PS1 allows two players on split-screen. The Nintendo 64 had some extra content over the other versions.
Legacy[]
A remastered version was released by Nightdive Studios in 2018 for Windows, Linux, macOS, and Xbox One. It allows 16-player online multiplayer, and includes the extra content from the Nintendo 64 version. A reverse engineered source port also exists called ForsakenX.
