    Adrenaline, romance, humor, danger - Wing Commander III has all this and more. This sequel completes the turbulent chronicles of the Terran-Kilrathi war. The final showdown takes place on one of the homeworlds - Earth or Kilrah. But only you can write the ending...

  • Character interaction - you control plot, conversation paths and ending.
  • Full 16-bit digital soundtrack for cinematics, plus orchestral music and digitized speech in space combat.
