Planescape Torment: Enhanced Edition Annoucnement

  • March 29, 2017

    So, just today (as far as I can tell) the news came out about the upcoming Enchanted Edition for Planescape: Torment, a game that is generally praised as being one of the greatest RPG's ever. At the moment it's kind of being pitched as just the game but with better graphics, music (no doubt UI changes and that sort of thing) but compared to Baldur's Gate, which was kind of half-sold on the idea that there would be new companions, quests, area, the Black Pits, etc. It seems like Beamdog is going for a smaller update this time...or at least that's all the information that's been released so far.

    The game will be out on Steam on April 13th (which, is a really short promotional cycle) but I'm curious if anyone's as interested as I am. I managed to miss Planescape somehow as a younger gamer and was always hesistant about trying to play the older version, especially once they announced Baldur's Gate EE, at that point I just assumed this would be coming within a year or two. Anyway, thought I'd let everyone know, and open up a quick discussion on it.
