Homeworld Expansion Pack
Homeworld: Emergence
Release Date: June 30, 2000
Continuation of Homeworld's excellent real-time space strategy. In the distant future, the Kushan race, once banished into the distant corners of the Galaxy, returns to its home planet and fights a new enemy, known as the Beast.
Homeworld: Cataclysm, developed by Barking Dog Studios, is the first official 'episode' within the Homeworld universe, taking you back to the setting of Homeworld roughly 15 years after the events of the original game ended. Improving upon the Homeworld interface, Cataclysm presents new features such as waypoints and sensor-manager attack commands to add a new dimension to the revolutionary combat and gameplay pioneered in Homeworld.
In the campaign, you begin by Cataclysm commanding a sect - or kiith - that has been marginalized after your people's victorious return to their homeworld of Hiigara. Traveling into uncharted space to repel an attack against another kiith, your fleet happens upon an alien probe that harbors an ancient evil. As events unravel, you will need to survive the onslaught of an enemy with terrifying abilities you can't match, fight off opportunistic Turanic Raiders, and deflect the firepower of Imperial loyalists bent on destroying you and reclaiming Hiigara.
Much as in Homeworld, gameplay revolves around a central command ship, but one that produces an entirely new class of fighting, resourcing and craft with new technologies and weaponry. The new, robust multiplayer system s up to eight combatants, each playing one of two very different sides with their own tactical options.

A series of space-based real-time strategies, set in a universe designed by two American science fiction writers - Arinn Dembo (under the pseudonym Marcus Skyler) and David J. Williams. Initially, the series was developed by Canadian studio Relic Entertainment (also known for such titles as Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War or Company of Heroes), working for the publisher Sierra Entertainment. In 2013, the rights to the brand were acquired by Gearbox Software, which in subsequent years decided to prepare remasters of the first two parts of the series, as well as to share the license with Blackbird Interactive studio, founded by part of the team responsible for the first installments of the series.
