Following a low-key initial announcement in 2020 , a remaster of classic '90s FPS Rise of the Triad has finally been detailed. It's a collaboration between original developer Apogee Entertainment, remaster specialists Nightdive, and retro shooter fanatics New Blood Interactive, and it'll be out early next year... Read more.
- Great moments in PC gaming: The 'ludicrous gibs' of Rise of the Triad - 29 July 2018
Great moments in PC gaming are short, bite-sized celebrations of some of our favorite gaming memories.   The 1990s were a good time for videogame gore. If you really wanted to see some spinal cords being removed, games had you covered. Two year after Mortal Kombat and one year after Doom, Rise of the Triad was a particularly memorable example of the artform that is making red stuff coming out of people in entertaining ways. Apogee had been working on a sequel to Wolfenstein 3D when the project was canceled, leaving them with a bunch of first-person shooter assets. They built Rise of the Triad on those bones (and it was later renamed Rise of the Triad: Dark War to differentiate it from the remake). Apogee improved on Wolfenstein in a bunch of ways, especially with the scale of their game's destructibility. Glass shattered, bulletholes persisted, and various bits of level scener…

- Rise of the Triad soundtrack hits iTunes and elsewhere today - 31 July 2015
The Rise of the Triad announcement teased last week has been revealed, and it's not a sequel: It's a soundtrack! And no, that's not quite as exciting as a new game, but Dave Oshry, Rise of the Triad's principal director and marketing dude, says there's more to come in the future. "We've got a list of things we want to do, things we're working on and things that may or may not happen," he said. "I don't want to promise anything (because that's never a good idea in game development) but we're 100 percent committed to continuing to add features, content, tweaks and value to the ROTT reboot this year and continuing to reward the people who pre-ordered the game or were there playing with us on day one." Longer term, he said the studio is aiming to release a "Ludicrous Edition" of the game that will collect everything—the Rise of the Triad remake, the soundtrack, the original 1995 relea…

- Rise of the Triad news is coming soon - 24 July 2015
Whole months worth of my teenagehood were lost to the original Rise of the Triad , and the 2013 reboot wasn't too shabby either. So it's exciting that something Rise of the Triad related is being teased. I'd speculate that it's a sequel, but that's just a guess. The tease comes via the official Rise of the Triad Twitter account , which tweeted the above image, a link to a YouTube video, as well as the text "soon" and "please stand by... your bazookas". The video is embedded below, and features the above image soundtracked by what I'm guessing is music from the forthcoming game. It's a good time for a new Rise of the Triad: fast-paced, twitch-oriented shooters are definitely making a comeback, especially with a new Doom looming on the horizon. The more of these games the better, if you ask me. Running and gunning for life.

- GOG is giving away 30,000 free copies of Rise of the Triad - 16 March 2015
What are you waiting for? Apogee/Interceptor's 2013 remake of Rise of the Triad is currently free on GOG . Go and get it before the 30,000 copies being given away are gone. If you want to stick around to learn what it is: it's a recreation of a 1995 FPS in which five distinct characters can be chosen to take down a cult known as the 'Triad'. To be honest, I'm not a massive fan, but our reviewer liked it well enough. The multiplayer's pretty good, if mindless old-school shooting is your jam. Nonetheless, it's free, and you can get it right now—assuming that reading all of this hasn't scuppered your chances. If it has, the game is 80% off this week—alongside Unreal Tournament 2004 at 70% off, and AvP Classic 2000 at 50% off.
