The jewel of the id Software studio, which was created in collaboration with the greats John Carmack and John Romero, belongs to the gold fund and for many players born earlier, it is still a very lively and timeless shooter. After the remaster of the first part, the second part from 1997 has now also received similar care.

Quake II Remaster retains all the iconic elements of the game itself, be it levels, mechanics or gameplay. On the contrary, the developers focused on the implementation of modern technologies, such as saving positions in the cloud or several multiplayer modes, for example locally with a split screen and online cooperation. The graphics page has received a significant improvement – Quake II can now be run in 4K resolution.
