DarkStar One delivers fast-paced action within a vast and authentic universe. Experience spectacular graphics, freedom of choice, a gripping story and the power to save the federal galaxy from its nemesis! Centuries have passed since the galactic war. Since this time of conflict the races within the known universe have been more or less at peace. The Great Council watches over the peace and the power of the empires. However, an isolated race from the edge of the universe frequently violates the calm that had settled. That race is the 'Thul'. Ascaron can now introduce detailed backgrounds to the six races, beginning with the future of human existence... the Terrans.
