Software Downloads

You may download software duplicates of a selection of the Elite and Frontier games from this section for a number of different platforms (operating systems). We have files for several different types of computer system, and in several different languages.

Please note, the operator of this website is in no way responsible for the contents of these files, or for problems experienced in running them on your computer. To the best of our knowledge, all files have been checked for viruses, and found to be clean and free of error. You are advised that in as far as many of these games are now considered freeware or shareware, others are not, and in theory, you should already have an existing version of any software you choose to download in your possession, which was paid for in order to make downloading these programs even remotely legal.

In the archives, you will find programs for classic Acorn Elite, Commodore Amiga, Amstrad, Apple, Archimedes, Atari, Commodore 64 and 128; Commodore Plus/4, IBM/PC, MSX,NES, and Spectrum. You will need an additional emulator or existing computer to run these programs.

* The majority of the files for FRONTIER were originally hosted at the now defunct Yikes Station. Files pertaining to ELITE are from Ian Bell's Elite Site, and additional files are directly from Frontier Developments own shareware sources.

Unless otherwise stated - all versions are in English.
