Descent: FreeSpace - The Great War is a space simulator that takes players to the distant future of 2335. Two warring factions are trying to divide power: the Galactic Earth Union and the Parliamentary Vasudan Empire. Both sides have been in a state of bloody war for 14 years. A third side of the conflict appears on the battlefield - the alien race of Shivana. They have a powerful fleet and are hostile to both factions. With the help of the huge battleship Lucifer, they want to enslave the human race and the Vasudans. The warring parties need to join forces against a common enemy and the Hammer of Light organization, who consider Shivan a sacred race. The campaign for the earthlings tells about how humanity learned to plow space with the help of interstellar travel, quickly overcoming the vastness of space. You will have to control various earthly ships, including deadly fighters. Their design resembles the classic images of shuttles from sci-fi films. The names of the vessels are taken from ancient Greek mythology.Vasudans are alien creatures from the lands of Vasuda Prime. They are wise philosophers, scientists and artists. Their design is inspired by Hinduism, and the name is borrowed from the father of Krishna. The names of their futuristic combat ships are the names of the gods of Ancient Egypt.

From him, the player learns that the Shivans are destroyers of the galaxy and destroyers of planets. The gameplay is a first-person space shooter, where you will be the pilot of a military ship. You have a huge number of guns and rocket launchers at your disposal. Moving around the open space, you need to destroy all enemy shuttles and carry out various tasks from the command headquarters.
