A well-integrated soundtrack adds to the immersive experience. Although the 3D graphics are less advanced than recent comparable titles, the massive space battles are still impressive.

The deathmatch option is great practice, because you can train for regular gameplay without plot interruptions. Veteran gamers will complete the two single-player missions quickly. The tutorial provides a cursory introduction to controlling the camera and the basic interface, but you'll need more practice to master all the controls. The demo version provides one tutorial, two single-player missions, and two multiplayer missions, as well as a single-player deathmatch against the computer. Despite some slowness in cut scenes and between missions, Homeworld 2 combines intense action, an immersive story, and detailed 3D graphics to create an enjoyable space-strategy game. Gamers must collect resources, construct space fleets, and battle the Vaygrs to survive.

In this sequel, a renegade clan called the Vaygrs threatens the Hiigarans' existence. In the original Homeworld, descendants of Hiigara fought their way to their ancestral home.
