Homeworld: Cataclysm is on its way back into your heart. Re-released exclusively through Good Old Games (GOG.com) as Homeworld: Emergence, this space simulator, aside from its name, is exactly how you remember it.Homeworld: Cataclysm was initially developed in 2000 as an expansion to the original game, Homeworld, but launched as a stand-alone title. It was originally developed by Barking Dog Studios and published by Sierra Studios; it was renamed for relaunch on GOG because Blizzard Entertainment has a trademark on the name `cataclysm.`Emergence takes place 15 years after the events of the first game; after returning to their home, the Hiigarian sect releases an alien terror, and you have to stop them. It`s still the same engine and playstyle as the original Homeworld game, but it updates many of the controls and features of the first game, like adding fast-forwarding features, moving parts, and transforming ships.To celebrate, GOG.com is currently having a sale on all the Homeworld installments until June 29. You can grab Homeworld Remastered Collection for $12, Homeworld: Emergence for $9, and Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak for $17.For even more PC gaming deals, make sure to check out our favorite deals from the Steam Summer sale.
