Story
Inferno is an unofficial sequel to Freespace 2, centered on the restoration of the Sol jump node in Delta Serpentis. 35 years after Capella, the GTVA re-established contact with the Earth Alliance, the warlike rulers of Sol that emerged from the ashes of the GTA. A war between the GTVA and the EA rages on, with the Vasudans remaining neutral in the conflict. During the EA-GTVA war, the Shivans return.
In addition to the main Post-Capella plot, Inferno: Alliance covers the events that occurred in Sol following the destruction of the SD Lucifer in 2335.
General notes
The Inferno Classic continuity, made up of Inferno Release 1 and Inferno: Alliance is in hibernation. A campaign named Inferno: Alliance 2, meant to fill the gap between INFA and the main INF timeline, was also conceptualized but no release ultimately was made. Team member Mobius ultimately ended up shifting assets from Alliance 2 into the Series Resurrecta continuity, and these campaigns retain various references to their origin.
Inferno Nostos is a reboot of the Inferno continuity. Nostos 1, a reboot of the original Inferno Release 1, was released in 2018. As of November 2024, Nostos 2 is currently in beta testing and voice-acting. Nostos 3, which completes the Inferno cycle, is slated for release in late 2025.

Inferno: Alliance Standalone
Also known as: INFA:SA, INFASA, INFA1 (may also refer to INFA)
Inferno: Alliance Standalone is a reboot of the old Inferno: Alliance campaign. The main campaign is currently on hold, and progress on it is supposed to resume following the release of Nostos R3.
