Legendary shooter Star Wars: Dark Forces is now available to play in higher resolutions thanks to The Foce Engine mod. Check out some 4K gameplay here!

Dark Forces is a much loved shooter in the Star Wars universe, but playing it on current hardware was very cumbersome until recently. The Force Engine is, according to their website, "a project to reverse engineer and rebuild the Jedi Engine for modern systems." This means easy access to modern resolutions, quality of life settings like easier aiming and crosshairs, as well as easier implementation of further mods.

Looks good. If you have never played it, this is a fun game.

Loved this game and would play a modern updated version. Shooting most enemies in this game seemed pretty satisfying. At least in this game. The Dark Troopers aren't some robot.

I replayed this game a couple years ago. Took a bit of tweaking with Dos Box to implement mouselook and some other modern features but in the end I got it working and it was awesome.

This is a game worth an update or full-on remake. I enjoyed this more than Doom. X-wing followed by Tie fighter, followed by this. Pretty great time in 1993/94 for Star Wars fan. Early days of CD-ROM mainstream adoption too?
