Release and Reception
Aftershock was released to PAL regions on 21 October 2005 and to North America on 23 November 2005. The game received mixed critical reviews upon release and is notoriously buggy even after several released patches. A sequel and third game in the series was released two years after Aftershock titled, UFO: Afterlight, to execute the same concept on Mars. UFO: Aftershock is protected by the controversial StarForce copy protection software on all store sold copies of the game. The game was re-released by GOG.com, a digital distribution video game retailer, without any copy protection.
The publisher granted a license to the Czech company Redboss Games, a subsidiary of Redboss, which they used to create a mobile version of UFO: Aftershock.

—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
