Inferno: Alliance Reborn is part of the main Inferno series of games and mods based on the FreeSpace Universe that now make use of the FreeSpace Open engine, developed by the Source Code Project.
Inferno: Nostos is set decades after FreeSpace 2, as the GTVA struggles with the Earth Alliance and the Shivans' returning to threaten our species. Act 1 of this mod has been released in June, 2018.
Inferno: Alliance takes the player seventeen years before FreeSpace 2, in a Sol system effectively cut off from the rest of Terran space.
Two different perspectives on the same universe.

Twenty years ago today, on July 16, 2003, Inferno was released. To celebrate the 20th anniversary, the entire Release 1 campaign has been voice acted. The voice acting features many actors and actresses who have contributed roles to previous mods, and it is also the first major release to include Vasudan voice processing by Gamma39er! Gamma39er did an incredible job to exactly reproduce the sound effects used for both the untranslated and translated Vasudan speech. Pay attention to the Vasudan characters in the campaign; they sound just like the ones from Volition.
A few other bugs have been fixed since the last rerelease in 2017, mainly mission event sequence breaks in uncommon situations, as well as a few model bugs.
Both the FSO Installer and Knossos have been updated. If you prefer to install it manually, download it here and here.
Description
In the year 2400, contact with Sol was established, but with dire consequences: a war between the Earth Alliance and the GTVA. A year has passed and both sides have suffered heavy losses. With reports of black ships appearing in the Ross 128 system, the greatest fear of the GTVA has been realized: the Shivans have returned once again.
Released in 2003, Inferno was one of the most anticipated campaigns in the early years of HLP. A massive mod with 140 new models ranging from the smallest of fighters to the largest capital ships ever seen in FS2 so far.

Inferno: Nostos Act 1 was officially released on June 4th, 2018, but due to significant update discontinuity on ModDB, a proper release article is now...
On July 16th, 2003, Inferno R1 was released. Woomeister posted on our Eyecandy thread on Hard Light Productions a few pics showing off the main differences...
Our new modeller, Dagger, worked on the iconic GVB Setep Vasudan superbomber and also posted on HLP a link to a 3D view of the model. Take a look!
New updates concerning the status of Inferno! The author of this news is Woomeister, Inferno's super uber Project Leader for over ten years!
Version 1.2.0 of Inferno Classic, now featuring voice acting.
We've packed a new model dump grouping a number of asset which will not be included in the next release. Enjoy!
Here's another asset dump. Most of these ships have been deprecated from Inferno, so we'd like to share them with the Community. Courtesy of Nightmare...
Who said Inferno Nostos is all about the iconic ships previously seen in INFR1? We have lots of new assets, and one of them is the GTD Phaeton.
The original FreeSpace 2 featured the GTCv Deimos, a highly versatile warship. Inferno tributed this corvette by naming its replacement GTCv Phobos, after...
The iconic EAB Gagana's, a familiar asset to Inferno fans, has been released.
uhm , this is mod or game ? :D
It is a mod turned standalone.
Keep going,I will watch.
Sorry for the prolonged absence and lack of updates! ShadowGorrath is currently posting news regarding the future PRs.
uhh nice, another campaign to fiddle with ^^
As long as you carry on past the Icanus / Dante fight i'll be happy....
It was the Dante wasn't it? The one with anti fleet cannon?
Wrong mod, Dekker... INFASA is a FS1-ish mod which doesn't feature the famous gigantic warships. ;-)
Oh, I guess you're refering to the SSJ Gigas. Inferno SCP's mod profile has several screenshots showing the new Gigas (whose design is based on the Rakshasa).
I'm looking forward a commercial release of this game. (*_*)
Commercial release? INFASA will be downloadable for free thanks to sites like ModDB and FSMods. :-)
Really glad to see both Inferno Mods are here now. Fs2 rules.
There are three mods, not two... ;-)
