Quake 2 Remastered appears to be in the works after a rating for the unannounced shooter was spotted online. An announcement is expected at QuakeCon 2023.
My favorite Quake title is being remastered! One of my most nostalgic PC titles from the 90s. Finally a remaster I’m excited about.
I’d assume this is going to have some clunky new game engine that looks good but doesn’t feel as smooth as the old engine. The big point of quake was the quick and smooth movement, not many modern games have this as they all go for more realistic physics.
Did you try out the Quake 1 remake? I quite liked it, and felt it was very smooth and snappy. If this is done to that same level of quality, I think it’s gonna be great.

Your comment reminded me of the “If quake was done today” video which itself is nearly 11 years old.

I want to echo this sentiment. I was surprised how smooth it was. I have faith this will be just as good.
