Nexuiz is a fast paced Arena first-person shooter with extremely competitive game play made specifically for consoles. The Nexuiz was formed, a series of battle arenas on the home planets of the Kavussari, Forsellian and the ruined planet of Atavirta. Pit their warriors against each other in the arena rather than on the fields of war, or face total annihilation. Sensing their newest members could spread war throughout the galaxy the Herald Accord gave the Kavussari and Forsellians a choice. Even though peace settled across their planets, the seething hatred between the races kept the fire of war simmering under the fragile truce. Over time the two races entered into treaties with the Herald Accord, a union between different cultures in the galaxy. For centuries the Kavussari and Forsellians have waged a galactic war. "With its unique setting, new features, and slick ranking system we are looking forward to bringing Nexuiz to a new community of console gamers." "IllFonic is not only introducing Nexuiz to an entirely new set of gamers, but also completely updating the graphics for the next generation while staying true to the gameplay refined over the years through open source development", said Lee Vermeulen owner of Alientrap Software and creator of Nexuiz. "Since its launch in 2005, Nexuiz has become a cult hit with hardcore arena FPS players from around the globe", said Chuck Brungardt, President of IllFonic.
