''Xonotic'' is a [[UsefulNotes/FreeLibreOpenSourceSoftware free, open source]] multiplayer FirstPersonShooter for [[Platform/IBMPersonalComputer Windows]], [[Platform/{{UNIX}} Linux]] and Platform/AppleMacintosh released in 2010. It's a SpiritualSuccessor to ''VideoGame/{{Nexuiz}}'', after the name "Nexuiz" got bought by Creator/IllFonic. Like its predecessor, it also runs on the ''Darkplaces'' MediaNotes/GameEngine, a heavily modified fork of the [[VideoGame/QuakeI idTech1]] engine.

Much like ''Nexuiz'', the game is an ArenaShooter. You start a match with a weapon (the Laser Gun) and earn victory by fragging your opponents, picking up weapons and items in the way. The game streamlines the weapon and map roster of its predecessor, leaving only 9 in the main roster (with other 7 being available via a [[ArrangeGame mutator]]).

Crosswicking new trope.

Added DiffLines:

* StatOverflow: The game's health doesn't really have a cap, so players could pick up plenty of health items and reach big HP numbers, at the catch that the bigger the number is, the faster the health degenerates to the default 100 HP after some seconds passed without picking up items or being attacked. [[InvertedTrope The reverse is also true]], as health regenerates if it's below 100 (but players will still be fragged the moment it reaches zero or less) and some seconds pass without picking up items or being attacked.

Added DiffLines:

* SinglePlayerGauntlet: The game has a straightforward Gauntlet system meant to guide the players through the different gamemodes and options the game has. It's used mostly to prepare the player for online play.

TRS deemed def-only


* SpeedRun: The Race and Race (Complete The Stage) gametypes involve the player trying to finish the map under the specified timelimit. The main difference is that in Race you keep running until you beat the timeline, whereas CTS only gives you one chance to do so.

Added DiffLines:

* PlayerElimination: The game features some gamemodes where player eliminations are a key element:
** Clan Arena splits players in two teams, and every player gets one life. Fragged players stay in limbo/spectator status until the next round begins. A round ends when all players in a team are fragged.
** [=FreezeTag=] is a round-based mode where players are frozen rather than killed (unless they die because of the game world's hazards such as void or a slime/lava pit which they couldn't escape). Frozen players can be thawed by their teammates (they must stand a certain amount of time near their frozen teammate), after which they return to the battlefield. A round ends when all players on one team are frozen.
