id Software and Nightdive Studios released the Heretic+Hexen remaster collection during QuakeCon 2025. The compilation features enhanced versions of both magic-based first-person shooters originally created by Raven Software using the DOOM Engine. Heretic debuted in 1994 while Hexen followed in 1995. Players can access the collection across PC and major console platforms. Xbox Game Pass subscribers receive immediate access to both titles.
The remaster offers significant technical improvements over the original releases. Both games support 4K resolution and 120 frames per second performance. Enhanced accessibility features and game balance options accompany widescreen compatibility. Mod support allows community modifications while a vault section displays concept artwork and unused sprites. Two additional episodes expand the content beyond the original trilogy.
Current owners of digital versions receive complimentary upgrades to the enhanced collection. The package encompasses Heretic, Hexen, and Deathkings of the Dark Citadel alongside new episodes Faith Renewed and Vestiges of Grandeur. GeForce Now compatibility arrives at an unspecified future date.
