Pilot an Awesome Ship and Master Your Own Destiny in Tachyon: The Fringe!

Space Combat Sim Adventure

You're Jake Logan, a mercenary star pilot with a healthy taste for adventure and a flair for the dramatic!

In this space combat simulation game it's the 26th century, a time when humankind has long since left the friendly confines of Earth for the endless reaches of deep space.

Navigate a Tricky Territorial War

A territorial war has just erupted in the Fringe, the lawless area lying outside Sol, our home solar system, and both sides are in dire need of ace pilots like you!

Will you side with the separatist Bora people, who inhabit outlying asteroids, or the megacorporation GalSpan, which seeks to exploit the mineral-rich regions now held by the Bora?

With Tachyon: The Fringe, the choice is up to you, but choose carefully: your decision will ultimately determine your destiny!

Fast-Paced, Open-Ended Gameplay and an Engaging Plot!

Fly your star fighter against waves of enemies in a huge variety of intense missions as you battle for final victory! With intuitive controls and smooth flight dynamics, Tachyon: The Fringe doesn't require you to be an experienced pilot to jump right into the pulse-pounding action.

The game combines action and space combat with a unique style of open-ended gameplay that puts you in the captain's seat calling the shots. You decide what side to take, where to go, which missions to fly, what weapons to buy, even what star fighter to use!

There are 11 options and you can own five ships at any one time. If you want, fly side missions for the Star Patrol or the League of Scientists to earn some extra cash. The depth of player choice adds a whole new dimension to the fun and challenges in Tachyon: The Fringe!

The One, the Only: Bruce Campbell!

That's right, it's the star of Army of Darkness and The Evil Dead, now lending his unique vocal talents to main character Jake Logan! Bruce Campbell remains the undisputed king of one-liners, and he doesn't disappoint in Tachyon: The Fringe.

Cool sound effects and an appropriate soundtrack go along with Logan's humorous comments as he explores the cosmos, while attractive graphics give you a sense of the vastness of deep space and the huge game universe of Tachyon: The Fringe!

Not Your Average Mindless Space Shooter

By combining an effective system of space combat with such a pleasing amount of player choice, Tachyon: The Fringe elevates itself beyond the level of your average space combat simulation game.
