Ethnic Cleansing is a first-person shooter that depicts a race war. The player can choose to control a Ku Klux Klan member, a neo-Nazi skinhead, or the Aryan White Will (who visually resembles the domestic terrorist Timothy McVeigh). As enemies, the player faces African Americans, Latinos, and Jews, who are described as "predatory sub-humans" with "Jewish masters". They are depicted with various racial stereotypes and, when killed, black characters make monkey noises, Jews shout "oy vey, and Latinos exclaim "¡Ay, caramba! or say they would take a siesta. Health is restored by collecting life runes and white power rock plays in the background. The game comprises two levels. The player starts in an urban environment, where they fight Latinos and black enemies, including their leader, Big Nig. The second level is a subway station, outlined as the hideout of Jews seeking world domination. The final boss is Ariel Sharon, the prime minister of Israel, who attacks the player with a rocket launcher. A playthrough lasts for approximately 20 minutes.

Ethnic Cleansing was produced by the National Alliance, an American white supremacist organization. According to the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith (ADL), it was "the largest and most active neo-Nazi organization in the United States". Shaun Walker, the chairman of the National Alliance, said the game's sole purpose was to be "racially provocative". It was advertised as the "most politically incorrect video game ever made". Ethnic Cleansing was developed using Genesis3D, an open-source 3D game engine, and its Reality Factory set of tools. Using an existing engine allowed for the game's creation with only minor modifications to the source code. D. Bryan Ringer designed and programmed the game using the Visual Basic and C++ programming languages, while Bob Hawthorne provided additional video and sound elements, including the voices for Jews. The game was released by Resistance Records, a record label owned by the National Alliance, on January 21, 2002, coinciding with Martin Luther King Jr. Day. The label sold the game on CD-ROM via its website for, a reference to the Fourteen Words. Several thousand copies were manufactured and shipped by Rainbo Records until the company severed its ties with Resistance Records in June 2002.

Ethnic Cleansing was advertised as the first in a series of games. The second game was to be Turner Diaries: The Game, based on Pierce's novel The Turner Diaries, which depicts Aryans eliminating all non-white people through nuclear, chemical, and biological warfare. In 2003, Resistance Records released White Law. The game casts the player as the former SWAT member Michael Riley, who must reclaim the fictional new American capital, Kapitol City, from people of color. It expands on the gameplay of Ethnic Cleansing with more levels and weapons.
