Fan-Made TimeSplitters Rewind Launches Free in Early Access on PC

Crytek's 2013 approval enabled volunteers to reimagine the trilogy as a single, free "greatest hits" release.

Overview

  • The early access build packages content from across the series into one game rather than separate remasters or executables.
  • Launch content includes 28 maps, 96 playable characters, 41 weapons, 20 arcade modes, and a new Team Elimination mode.
  • The full story mode of the original TimeSplitters is playable solo or in co-op with online and offline support.
  • Developers warn players to expect bugs at this stage and outline plans for additional campaigns, maps, characters, modes, and community-requested features.
  • The project weathered about 13 years of stop-start development, including engine switches and a scrapped Unreal Tournament–based build, with THQ Nordic later honoring Crytek’s original permission.
