Star Control: Famous Battles of the Ur-Quan Conflict Volume IV was developed by Fred Ford and Paul Reiche III. It was released for the PC in 1990 and (in a somewhat cut-down form, and called simply Star Control) for the Commodore 64 in 1991 by Accolade.

A port for the Sega Genesis was released by Ballistic in that same year. The DOS version is available from Good Old Games.
