Privateer Gemini Gold is a remake of Wing Commander Privateer.

Back in 1993 Privateer was released as part of the Wing Commander series and became a great success in the gaming industry. Over 10 years later a small group of privateer enthusiasts reintroduce the game with a new graphic engine and real 3d spaceflight.

As Grayson Burrows you inherited a small old scout class ship from your grandfather, to start over as a Privateer in a new and sparsely populated sector of the Confederation. Take your chance and become a pirate, merchant or hunter upgrade your ship and experience the hard truth in a border sector where noone has anything to give away...

This project is different from Privateer Remake in that it focuses on recreating the original Privateer without additional fan created content, it however shares the source with Privateer Remake.
