At first glance, it looks more like Elite than anything, but any in-depth play reveals that it had more than a little in common with action-RPGs such as Diablo, with simple mouse-friendly combat, plentiful loot and shield/hull restoration ‘potions’ to chug your way through in every fight. For those who never played the original game, it billed itself as a space-combat sandbox with a hefty single-player campaign.
Released in 2003, it was loved by critics, by fans and by a still-enduring modding scene, but it didn’t sell well enough to keep the studio afloat. Freelancerwas one of those cult hits that never really went anywhere.
