Every other Monday, Dominic gives you a reason to dust off one of your old games and dive into its mods with Modder Superior.
Freespace 2 remains one of the best space combat sims around thanks to its dedicated modding scene, mostly centred around the Hard Light Productions forums. Fans have been polishing up and fine-tuning Volition’s old workhorse for nearly two decades, and have been exceptionally organised about it. Your one-stop shop for space dogfights is now Knossos, a fan-made launcher app just for Freespace 2 mods and free standalone fan-games. Here’s some the best that you can play today, plus a quick guide on where to start for absolute rookies and old aces alike.
