Leaked Quake 2 remaster reportedly getting a QuakeCon reveal next week

Following a bit of a ratings board leak earlier this year, a new report has claimed a Quake 2 remaster will – in a move that wouldn’t exactly be surprising – be getting an official unveiling during this year’s QuakeCon festivities, which take place next week.

A Quake 2 remaster first reared in head in June this year, when a listing appeared on the Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea’s website.

As astute readers may have already spotted, those are the very same platforms that received a Nightdive-Studios-developed 25th anniversary remaster of the original Quake back in 2021.
