Welcome to the Free Radical Archive!
An archive for the games that nowadays live in misinformation, the Free Radical Archive strives to collect information on Free Radical Design's cancelled next-generation titles. Learn about the design of Battlefront III, the alternative universe of Battlefront IV, the crazy concepts for TimeSplitters 4 and much more! There is something for everyone here, whether that's a fan, a researcher or a developer.
This project began with the purpose of researching the cancelled Battlefront sequels. Many years later it is the main source for anyone researching Free Radical's final years. Everything has a source and no rumor is presented as fact. If you think there is a mistake somewhere or want to contribute send us a message on the Discord linked at the start of the page.
