This new perspective on the Heretic/HeXen universe was the biggest critical success in Raven Software's storied history. With dozens of awards and numerous accolades, Heretic II showed the world that third-person action games could be fun and intuitive, while it solidified Raven's reputation as one of the industry's top game developers. The game was published by Activision Inc. and released to the public in 1998. Heretic II was one of the last 3-D action games to ship with fully playable co-operative gameplay. Heretic II has since inspired a new generation of third-person action game development and MODS... a testament to the groundbreaking impact of the title.

Description

Heretic II is a third-person action game based on the Quake II engine that sets players on a quest through vast city and outdoor environments as they search to find a cure to a deadly, evil plague before all is lost. The game plunges you into a deep, compelling game combining brutal face-to-face combat and mystery-laden adventure in an advanced graphics engine. From a third-person perspective, gamers travel through complex, richly detailed environments filled with special effects, wicked magic spells, detailed characters, vivid artwork, and challenging level designs.
