Descent released by Parallax Software for MS-DOS in 1994. The NV1 version was bundled with the Diamond Edge 3D cards and was called Descent: Destination Saturn, which was an OEM version with the first 15 levels. The version was included in the bundle from the release in November 95 to about February 96 when it was replaced with Panzer Dragoon.

Just incase someone finds a disc and think they've found something special; Descent: Destination Saturn OEM version was also available for DOS and without NV1 acceleration bundled with other products/computers.
