New version - 6.04 Mar 07

This release marks the most signifigant change in content in the game's history! Eleven brand new maps have been added, along with revamped Deathball, and Team Core Assault modes, as well as numerous new client and server side enhancements. Now with real-time lighting and shadows, the CRX engine can deliver smooth yet impressive visuals even on modest gaming systems.

Alien Arena 2007 has been released for Windows and Linux on September 2, 2006, nearly one year after the 2006 version. My how much can change in one year! It's amazing how the community has grown, and helped shape the game into what it is today. It is safe to say, that AA2k7 barely resembles it's predecessor at all.

What is different? Well besides the upgrading of many textures, models, and effects, the engine has gotten a host of new features such as real time shadows, better dynamic lighting, shaders, new mutators, games modes, far too much to list here. CRX 6.0 is not only faster, smoother than before, it's also much more stable and secure. Most of all...it's the maps! With 37 in total, it's hard to believe that so many of the old maps have been discontinued.

Now with Galaxy 2.0 serving as a front end, players can feel more connected to the community than ever before, and track their own as well as other players stats with a click of the mouse! With a built in IRC client, users can chat with others, or stay abreast of latest tourney news, or get help if they have problems with the game.

Do NOT install Alien Arena 2007 over top of Alien Arena 2006. If you have Alien Arena 2006 Uranium Edition, you can apply the forum release patch.
