Fan remake of 1994’s Star Wars: Tie Fighter has been released after ten years of work

TIE Fighter Total Conversion has been released. It is a fan-made remake of Star Wars: TIE Fighter, a game originally released in 1994. The remake has new graphics, improved gameplay and even VR support.

TIE Fighter Total Conversion was created based on the X-Wing Alliance Upgrade project. This means that it is not the original game from 1994 that forms the basis of the remake, but its successor, Star Wars: X-Wing Alliance from 1999. TIE Fighter has been completely recreated in that newer engine and has therefore received gameplay improvements in addition to a graphical upgrade. .

The entire TIE Fighter campaign and missions have been recreated in the remake. In addition, TFTC includes a modified campaign, with bigger battles. This consists of 37 missions in total. The soundtrack has been updated, but the original midi soundtrack is also present. Since the remake runs in X-Wing Alliance, there is also VR support. It was already added to that game with the Upgrade project.

To TIE Fighter Total Conversion a copy of X-Wing Alliance is required to play. That game is available on Steam and GOG. Also the X-Wing Alliance Upgrade mod installed, after which TFTC can be added. The makers of the fan remake say they have been working on it for ten years.
