After the Quake remaster that was leaked prior to its official announcement by Bethesda a few years ago, it’s apparently happening again, this time with Quake II. Thanks once again to the Korean Media Ratings Board (which has leaked games prior to their official announcements in the past), it would appear that the Quake II remaster is on the way.
While Bethesda hasn’t made any official announcement as of yet (or responded to the leak), similar to how they announced their Quake remaster, they very well could make things official at QuakeCon 2023, which will take place from August 10 to 13.
According to the listing, the only platform listed at the moment is PC, though it’s very likely that Quake II will be headed to consoles, as well. No other real details about the remaster are listed, though you can probably expect things like increased resolution, widescreen and controller support, dynamic lighting, and (hopefully) the inclusion of all of the official expansion packs.
It’s also not known if this version of the game will feature ray-tracing support, which was the case when the first RTX cards hit the scene, and Bethesda and Nvidia released Quake II RTX back in 2019. Nor is it known if those who already own the original Quake II on Steam will be getting a free upgrade.
Thanks to Gematsu for the heads up.
