A classic returns this summer with Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition

Aspyr is bringing Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition to consoles and PC this summer.

For the first time ever

Believe it or not, the PC classic that is Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter Nights 2 has never appeared on consoles before. With all the re-releases from that era of D&D games, it’s weird to think, but somehow this one title slipped by, and has been locked away for a while. So with that in mind, this summer’s release of the game’s new Enhanced Edition is kind of a special one.

Publisher Aspyr just revealed that much, with Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition. The new version of the famed title will deliver the original game and all of its expansions onto both consoles and the PC this July, complete with “gameplay enhancements, improved textures, full controller support, all three expansions, Steam Workshop modding, and more”, according to the press release.

Here’s a look at it in action:

Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition will offer some 100 hours of play time, spread out across a quartet of campaigns. As mentioned though, the original title and its expansions are coming along with a little something extra. Hey, they’re not calling it the “Enhanced Edition” for nothing.

The new version of the game includes:

• Experience the Complete Saga with All Classic Expansions Included: Journey through the cursed Shadow Realm in Mask of the Betrayer as a Shard-Bearer battling an insatiable spiritual hunger. Lead your shipwrecked crew through a hostile jungle in Storm of Zehir, uncovering a plot that threatens all of Faerûn. And delve into the treacherous underbelly of Mysteries of Westgate, where secrets and danger lurk around every corner.
• Steam Workshop Support: Dive into a world of community-created content with full Steam Workshop integration. Discover and download new adventures, modules, and more to expand your Neverwinter Nights 2experience.
• First Time on Consoles with New Controls: Experience Neverwinter Nights 2 on consoles for the very first time! Enjoy tailored controls with full controller support, as well as the option for classic mouse-and-keyboard gameplay.
