Back in December 2016, we informed you about a fan remake of Star Wars: X-Wing in Unity Engine. The team behind it has been working hard on it, and has released a new video, showcasing some of its newly implemented features.
For those not aware, XWVM is a remake of the Star Wars: X-Wing flight engine that reads the original XWing resources (music, graphics, missions) in your GoG XWing game folder, and uses them to play the mission, allowing for modern resolutions, input methods, and even usability improvements that were later added to TIE Fighter and XvT.
This new video shows new explosions, a new HDR lighting system, new planets and sun, a mission selection screen, complete Y-Wing historical mission set, AI improvements and a playthrough of Mission 5.
The XWVM Team plans to release many smaller iterations of the mod to showcase implemented features little by little.
Enjoy!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

Wow
Vapourware
how long before disney shuts it down
I was going to say the same thing.
wish they would just show it off when it is done and released
I think this one’s safe. They aren’t distributing the game or any of its copyrighted assets or files. It simply finds the installed copy of X-Wing that you own and ports it into Unity. They have a whole section on C&D in the FAQ of their ModDB page.
Is this game recreated from the game that release at 1993 ??
Yes.
