Cities with the Challenge were: Dallas, Miami, Chicago, Boston, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.Just as the title suggests, this is an attempt to list free games that very closely follow a well-known product or franchise and can thus serve as an alternative to that particular game.

It also featured on the March 2007 Maximum PC and (version 2.4) was released on the May 2008 and August 2009 PC User cover disks. In the September 2006 issue of the magazine PC Gamer, Nexuiz was included in an article on Internet developers and free games impacting the industry. On July 13, 2010, Crytek announced that it had licensed the Cryengine 3 for IllFonic's Nexuiz. Many of the core contributors and community members of Nexuiz moved to this new project as they felt that sale of the name Nexuiz mishandles the original project. On March 22, 2010, the fork Xonotic of Nexuiz was announced. On March 1, 2010, it was revealed that IllFonic purchased the rights to the name Nexuiz.

From mid-November 2008, a number of people expressed interest in continuing development of Nexuiz. Responses to this call highlighted the need for better documentation of QuakeC and the Nexuiz code, while also acknowledging the difficulty that documentation of this placed on the small team of Nexuiz developers.

In October 2008, a call was made for more developers for Nexuiz by the main (and only) QuakeC developer, who identified organizational issues associated with a many user, one developer model. This includes all new GUI graphics elements, as well as reflective water and improved particles. On February 29, 2008, nearly three years after the initial release, version 2.4 was released and brought major improvements to both the GUI and the graphics engine. Development continued after the initial release, with 1.1 released soon after, 1.5 released February 14, 2006, 2.0 released June 14, 2006, and 2.1 September 9, 2006. After four years of development with no budget, Nexuiz 1.0 was released on May 31, 2005, completely under the GNU GPL, and by the end of June had over a quarter million downloads. The original design called for a simple deathmatch project with a few levels and one character model to be released the next summer. Soon afterward the project moved to the DarkPlaces engine created by Ashley Hale, who later also joined the project.

Nexuiz development started as a Quake modification in the summer of 2001 by Lee Vermeulen.

It supports new gametypes, or whole conversions quickly applied to it (much like Quake).
