In October 2006, 3D Realms CEO Scott Miller announced that the game is a commercial success on both PC and Xbox 360 with combined 1 million copies sold worldwide to date.

On November 29, 2006 Aspyr Media announced a Mac port, with an anticipated release date in January 2007.

Story

The story focuses on Domasi Tawodi (Cherokee) (a.k.a. Tommy), a Cherokee garage mechanic and former U.S. Army soldier living on a Native American reservation in Oklahoma. At the beginning of the game Tommy is in a bar owned by his girlfriend Jen. Domasi is tired of living on the reservation, and constantly tries to push his heritage away. At the same time he tries to convince Jen to leave home with him, if only for a short while, to which she refuses steadfastly. A series of unpredictable events leads Tommy on a path to save humanity and the bonds to his spiritual heritage.
