Beamdog has announced that it will soon release an Enhanced Edition of the classic PC RPG, Neverwinter Nights. According to the publisher, this Enhanced Edition will combine all the content of Neverwinter Nights Diamond Edition with all-new enhanced features.
Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition will feature improved display, advanced graphics settings, and will be backwards compatible with older saves. Here are the key features of the Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition:
- Improved Display: Your portrait, combat bar, inventory, and other UI elements adjust in size based on your chosen resolution including 1080p and 4k.
- Advanced Graphics Options: Pixel shaders and post-processing effects make for crisper, cleaner visuals. Enable contrast, vibrance, and depth of field options as preferred.
- Community Endorsed: Original developers have teamed with key members of the Neverwinter Nights community to curate important fan-requested improvements to support players, storytellers, and modders.
- Backwards Compatibility: Works with save games, modules, and mods from the original Neverwinter Nights. A galaxy of community created content awaits.
Beamdog has also released a trailer for Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition that you can watch below.

Didn’t notice any particular enhancement in the trailer.. but alright I’ll still bite.
I have so much good memories from my youth on this one, it was almost one of my first RPG, with T4C.. Remember the Wailing Death of Neverwinter, the scream in the city, the citizen dying everywhere, writing the journal while doing my progression as if I where the character… such times have past since this game & I never found a similar sensations on a RPG. Very looking forward this remaster, hope it will keep the original feelings of it 🙂
Beamdog are a group of talentless SJW hacks that only survive by remastering the work of other, more talented people. The first quest in the tutorial area of BG:EE was bugged and unfinishable when I first played it. And let’s not forget how awful that BG2 expansion was.
And another old classic gets a facelift. There must surely be a nice profit in doing this with older games or it wouldn’t be so popular to do it.
Just out of curiosity, what are you referring to?
Wait so you’re upset that they added a transgender person or is there more?
Sorry, I just assumed you were upset since you made a point to bring the issue up. The “sjw pandering” was part of years later expansion, right? Is it uncommon for expansions to contain things that weren’t in the original game? I’m not trying to start something I’m just trying to figure out why people think this is an issue.
Idk.. the way I see it simply including a minority character doesn’t automatically make something political.
How do you determine if they did it to pander or not?
I guess that goes back to one of my original questions, which was is it uncommon for expansions to contain things that weren’t in the original game? Seems like a lot of games have major expansions that include things not in the base game.
This was my first D&D game. Absolute classic.
I’m well aware how they’re trying to affect the game industry. I’m just worried legitimate inclusions of minorities whether it be trans people, gay people, etc. are all going to automatically be seen as pandering and lumped in with that crowd I guess.
