Sometimes, big and unexpected surprises can catch us off guard. Recently, data miners discovered a Steam database entry for a remastered version of Neverwinter Nights 2, dubbed Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition. This exciting find was added on February 11 and indicates that the game will require 36 GB of storage space, support seven languages, and be compatible with the Steam Deck.

The project is being spearheaded by Aspyr Media, which acquired Beamdog two years ago. Beamdog is renowned for their work on remasters of classic RPGs, including the first two Baldur's Gate titles. While this news is thrilling for fans of the series, it's important to approach it with caution. There have been no official announcements yet, and the game's page is not yet publicly accessible on Steam.
The original Neverwinter Nights 2 was crafted by Obsidian Entertainment and released in 2006. This classic RPG is rooted in the Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 ruleset and is set in the expansive Forgotten Realms universe. Players follow the protagonist and their allies as they delve into a series of mysterious events connected to an ancient evil known as the King of Shadows.
