Colony Wars: Red Sun (called Colony Wars III: Red Sun in North America) is a space combat simulator video game for the PlayStation developed by Psygnosis and published by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe and Midway Games in 2000.[1] It is a sequel to Colony Wars in 1997 and Colony Wars: Vengeance in 1998. Instead of being a starfighter pilot for the League of Free Worlds or the Colonial Navy, the player now assumes the role of a civilian miner-turned-mercenary.
The game was originally set for release in North America by Psygnosis in March 2000,[3] before it was delayed a few times, once to early April,[4] then to late April or early May,[5] and then to June 1 after being picked up by Midway Games.[1]
