It's a free updateI got an email from Bandcamp about the soundtrack from Andrew Hulshult and had to check if these games finally got a remaster/re-release/sourceport. Pumped for this, and I don't have to pay anything extra for the update, since I owned the old games on Steam already.

It's a free updateHearing that Raven secured a contract with Microsoft the other day had me wondering if perhaps they would try and revive these the way they did with Doom. This is a good indication that yes, they more than likely will end up making a new Heretic and/or Hexen

Yes, same, been waiting for this one. I played through Heretic on Steam (not on the Deck) a few years ago, but I definitely didn't use the Dosbox version, but some sourceport (probably Chocolate or Crispy Doom).

It's a free updateI meet the specs easily, but they seem pretty high for 30 year old games…

I meet the specs easily, but they seem pretty high for 30 year old games…With stuff like this, it's always possible that's just the slowest hardware the devs have on hand to test with. The Doom and Quake re-releases are the same, I think all of these use the Kex Engine.

What sort of contracts would they need to secure with Microsoft?

It's a free updateThis is great news! I love these 2 games, especially Hexen! Be a lot easier to play them on steamdeck now! Looks like mods are just starting to go up. Hopefully Jimmy (or a fan I guess) uploads his **Faithless** trilogy for Heretic. It mixes some elements from Hexen in and is one of the better fantasy boomer shooters I've played. Highly recommended when it's available.

It's a free updateI went to buy it and found out that I already own it. Very nice.

Yes it does very much, but it took a lot of work to get up and running and I recently reset my SteamDeck and I didn’t want to go through the hassle again. It’s also nice to have cloud saves and just general steam features.I played Heretic yesterday for a bit. Sadly no perspective correction for mouse look (their ROTT had it neither) which makes me seasick. GZDoom is much better in that regard.
