Mankind is at war with the Strogg, a hostile alien race that attacked Earth. In response, humanity launched a strike on the Strogg homeworld...it failed, but you survived.

Mission Pack: The Reckoning
In the first official expansion pack for Quake II, you are part of an elite commando force that must infiltrate a Strogg site. Once inside, you must scour industrial landscapes, crawl through waterways and air ducts, navigate treacherous canyons teeming with vicious mutants, stow away on an alien spacecraft, and destroy the enemy's secret moon base.
Mission Pack: Ground Zero
In the second official expansion pack for Quake II, you, and a few marines are the lucky ones. You've made it to the surface of Stroggos in one piece and are still able to contact the fleet. The Gravity Well, the Strogg's newest weapon in its arsenal against mankind, is operational. With the fleet trapped around Stroggos, only 5% of ground forces surviving, and that number dwindling by the second, your orders have changed: free your comrades and destroy the Gravity Well.
Play the All-New “Call of the Machine” Expansion
A brand-new Quake II experience from MachineGames consisting of 28 campaign levels and one multiplayer deathmatch map. In the depths of Strogg space lies the Machine, a singularity capable of collapsing the fabric of reality.

Another master piece from the Id Sofware. I love both doom and quake and their sequences !
An amazing remaster which keeps the option of running the original version. All classic expansions are here, along with the remastered versions, and an all-new expansion. There's also a lot of great concept art in the "Museum".
intense in-game experience. Levels designed well and lead players to find clues by simply following clues to get through. attracted by the levels and takes just right amount to encounter battle, and not too drawn into puzzle solving.
Quality Shotgun Diplomacy
nothing will ever have the impact on modern fps gaming that this game did
I loved it's great amazing and mobs is added that I was surprise it different :)
An old favourite with new bells and whistles, plus new expansions. Utterly awesome!
It doesn't get any better than this! The definitive version of Quake 2, along with all of the original expansions and extra material!
The new expansions however, "Call of the Machine", is underwhelming... Especially the final encounter. I don't know why but many of the individual map developers seemingly insisted on not using most of the game's enemy roster or weapons. This in turn causes otherwise gorgeously designed arena maps packed to the brim with low to mid-tier enemies to be a huge let down, as you don't get any of the more fun weapons to use for crowd control. Whoever thought that it would be "fun" to wipe out hordes of mutants with just a super shotgun obviously never had the thought that it would be little more than a tedious slog that bogs down the flow.
Old school brilliance. At the time of its release, best of the FPS.
Night Dive fixed Quake II with a free patch 26 years after launch. A heroic effort
An absolute gem~ Seriously, even on hard difficulty you'll die, but you'll have fun doing so with this absolutely legendary piece of history that has been lovingly recrafted to be silky or at least much more smooth on the eyes. I seriously can not recommend this plus the original quake remaster enough and love the trend of seeing older games get such a well crafted upgrade overall. 10 out of 10 and the extra gallery at the end for the models and pickups is such a nice touch.
Just a great old school FP Shooter, endless combat, great puzzles, it just goes on and on, no fancy graphics but reminds you that such things are nice but not essential, what's not to like!
I've been playing this again for the first time in years. Are modern games so fast? I'd forgotten.
Another cool remaster by Nightdive.
New awesome campaign (probably, the best of all available), solid gamepad support, graphics enhancements, lots of cool stuff in vault and no more wobbly poligons!
Quake II is my fav of all Quake games and with this edition the game shines effortlessly even 30 years after release.
Good stuff!
It's simply a perfect upgraded version of the good old game. Everything is made at a high level as of 2024: gameplay, sound, enemies AI, and OST.
I recommend it even for those who didn't play the original version.
P.S. All music tracks with their official names:
02 - Operation Overlord
03 - Rage
04 - Kill Ratio
05 - March of the Stroggs
06 - Underworld
07 - Quad Machine
08 - Big Gun
09 - Descent Into Cerberon
10 - Climb
11 - Showdown
I fell in love with this the day it was first launched (last millennium!) To play it again now with my 13-year-old son and see the same enjoyment on his face is pure joy. It's just another example of how really good gameplay beats all the fancy ray-traced graphics and photo-realistic textures you can find.
There's a good atmosphere, fun puzzles to solve, and some proper comedy explosions.
We cross-play with me on PC and him on XBox and it works well although we had some delays with the XBox finding the server on my PC, but it got there in the end.
You don't play it and think "this is good but..." - you just have great fun. And of course on a modern gaming PC the humble textures and detail mean that it's fast as hell.
The compass feature they added (semi) recently is a godsend. Made my second playthrough much more fun than my first because I wasn't getting lost every five seconds.
Quake 1 is a better game, but the difference is Quake 1 = excellent and Quake 2 = very good. If you've played Doom, you have your usual ID Software selection of guns. The setting gets a little same-y after awhile but the challenge does at least ramp up well so it can still hold your attention.
I like this a little bit better than the first game.
honestly I love this game so much more over quake 1, its so incredible, buy it and finish it asap
First networked game I ever played. Playing the mod Chaos and getting poisoned is where I came up with the name "vomitspray". That was in class, networked before we were supposed to be connected to each other, much less playing Quake... 98-99 Fresno Institute of Tech... Quake fests on school server after school once a week... John Belt Rocks...
if this game was not a sequel to Quake, i would've liked it
for what it's worth, i did get this game for free during QuakeCon '23, and that was when i first experienced this game. that being said, i very much Do Not Like this game, specifically as a follow-up to the original Quake. if ID had called this anything else, like, i dunno, "Johnny Guns and the Stroggies" i'd probably be OK with it.
don't get me wrong, the gameplay itself is fine. it's straightforward, you run around and shoot aliens with your arsenal and you get some handy powerups that you can pop off at your leisure. oftentimes you have to backtrack through the map to do your objectives, which might be bothersome to some, but i didn't mind too much.
However, as a follow-up to Quake (1996), i strongly dislike this entry. to switch up from a dark fantasy-themed shooter to some generic sci-fi affair feels bad and sets up the series as a whole as inconsistent. take this statement with a grain of salt, though. i didn't experience this game until 2023, and in that time i've played plenty of other sci-fi shooters, while for others, Quake 2 may have been their first dip into the genre. it's an obviously biased statement, but then again, there's no such thing as a truly unbiased review.
playing the sequel right after the original definitely gave me very conflicting feelings. gone are the unique weapons such as the nail gun and thunderbolt that gave Quake a distinct identity, replaced with the traditional machine gun and the now-sorta-common rail gun (but the hyperblaster kicks ass). gone are the castles, heavy wooden doors, and extradimensional creatures that blended fantasy and science fiction into its own independent endeavor, to, you know, space guys and spaceships.
it even feels slower to play, but that might just be a subconscious thing on my end.
all i'm really saying is, this don't feel like Quake. if anything, Doom: The Dark Ages feels more like Quake than Quake 2 does, but that's a different can of worms.
if you love Quake 2, that's good! that's great and i'm happy for you. you might even interpret this review as "TL;DR - Old good, new bad", and you're perfectly within your rights to do so. as for me, i'll just have to be content with map packs and custom content for Q1 to get my fix.
It's a fun sequel to the original Quake but I feel it's not as good. There was a lot of love given to the game but it just wasn't as fun as the original for me.
Still, check it out.
Man they did this game justice. The upgrade works, feels, and looks amazing. Breathes new life into this old gem of a game to make it polish once again.
Remaster is great once again, but the game is still boring, like honestly this is one of most boring game i've played in my life, it takes everything that was great in Quake 1 and just makes it slower, visuals feels almost the same every single level, i know the game takes place inside their base, but there is barely any variation, it just gets tedious after a while.
Soundtrack is still the best, doesn't beat Quake 1 soundtrack but it sounds really good and kinda fits with the game i guess.
Ah Quake2, the uncut gemrock of a sequel that's pretty much a Doom game without the violent intensity of Doom or the aesthetic of the first Quake. You go map to map, fragging through enemies to complete objectives and shut down the enemy known as the Strogg, which are this game's cyberdemons. You have plenty of weapons to help you through your campaign of war on their homeworld, and you have plenty of ammo and health to do it; you even have an AI assistant to feed you objects on what to do and where to go; gone are the labirathian maps of old Doom and replaced with more believable buildings and facilities to venture.
The game is fun; there is nothing like having a Mingun on full ammo and wiping out a whole room that was going to get the jump on you, railguning when you have pocketed quade damage, supershotting enemies around corners, rocket jumping—the list goes on. My only grip is that the game, while fun with all the weapons you get, many of them become obsolete and are replaced with better versions as you unlock your full arsenal towards the end of the game. The campaign as a whole is easy with little challenge until the very end, and honestly, you really unlock all your weapons a little too late into the campaign to really get crazy with them, but I think it's hidden away in the expansion and community map packs that come bundled in the game with one of them being more closer to the newer DOOM games.
Moving away from the gameplay aspect, the game as a remaster is pretty faithful to the original with ALOT of QoL features that take the game's visuals and roll it into today's era of gaming; we even have improved online features to play coop and multiplayer, which is pretty nice.
Get it on sale. It's an excellent remaster of a classic.
funny and interesting to play if you like the feeling and structure of older games!
This is one of the only games ever where i actually want to purchase the soundtrack.
theres a lot of content here. some completely new with new monsters and bosses
This is the definitive edition of quake2
Overall: 9/10
I would consider this remastered version of Quake II as the "definitive edition" of Quake II. Nightdive and Machine Games knocked it out of the park with the new expansion, enhancements, tweaks, and quality-of-life changes. Whether you're a new player or a Quake veteran, I am sure there's something for you waiting in this version of Quake II.
The first Quake was certainly the more interesting premise, but Quake II still delivers on solid gameplay and level design.
Quake ll is as good as it was long ago, the video is great. Not much to say except try it out. Well, just one thing it is kind of expensive but I bought the bundle with all the Quakes. (^..^)
Yes, this is a game from almost 30 years ago that they're still charging you for. However, the amount of love and QoL features put into this by the remaster team can not be understated. The fact that it includes all of the original expansions packs, as well as the brand new expansion pack Call Of The Machine, make it worth the price alone. As well as the fact that it includes Quake II 64, an extremely loyal port too, even going as far as to limit the things that players couldn't do on the original hardware (crouching and Bhopping come to mind). That is the type of detail that can only be added by a team that actually cares.
10/10, recommended at all costs. Except for Ground Zero, you can skip Ground Zero.
Just a good classic first-person nightmare. It is clear that the programmers put a lot of love into making this game.
awesome game, fun storyline, great movement
If you're looking for a fast paced arena shooter experience this is it.
The goat, the first quake to include the rail gun, the game that changed everything.
I may love the original quake, but as far as a game to jump in and play multiplayer, whether that be with bots or other players (This game has a decently active community for deathmatch) it's a great time no matter what.
A good classic game. Works fine in Windows 11 and Ubuntu 24.04.
Perfect fps don't exis... Yes it does. Quake 2 is genuinely synonymous of fast paced fps shooters for me. As I grew on, this game unchangeably destroyed my child mind. Which to be frank is a good thing somehow. (laughs in parental control 2001 edit)
The remastered version basically updated UIUX to something closer to modern standards. The lighting and the textures got updated with passion and respect to legacy version. On top of that, Machine Games done an extra campaign mission pack which incorporates modern level design principles which(again) fits perfectly in that environment. Moar fun inside insanely fun game. Yes, you must play. 10/10
was the Best shooter and almost the Best 4P/Splitscreen game on PS1,
i know this is not the Same thing at all, but it gives em Feels still a bit
Sucks that in COOP story you're Forced to have infinite Respawns Etc...
Like Quake 1, this is imaginatively hellish, but has a completely different atmosphere. I keep coming back to these two games, even after decades!
The only thing I liked about this game was the aesthetics of the game, it's great
It's Quake 2...
The game and the engine it used defined a entire generation...
And it's still more fun than many modern games!
Quake II – A Landmark in First-Person Shooter History
Quake II stands as a monumental title in the realm of first-person shooters, originally released in 1997 and continuing to resonate with gamers today. With its innovative design, engaging gameplay, and immersive atmosphere, Quake II set the stage for many advancements in the genre.

One of the best FPS of all time, now in its definitive remastered version. Many quality of life and graphical improvements, with even some new animations and move sets for some enemies and a whole new chapter made by MachineGames
Classic game from the childhood. Spent many nights on this and Duke Nukem while getting yelled at to get off the computer so mom could use the phone.
Quake 2 has aged well and will continue to age well as a defining FPS of its time. It sets a high standard using one of the finest game engines for the genre. The gameplay is smooth from the movement to the weapons to the physics. The music, sound effects, and ambiance sounds are top-notch that complement the theme to fit in with the environment.
Although Quake 2 may lack some elements of character development and deeper story explanation, it allows the player to imagine while focusing on the instant action aspect. The level designs are creative and elegant but sometimes feel repetitive and confusing to navigate.
Some of the included mission packs are decent, but do not exceed expectations of the base game:
Q64 - Very linear, enclosed, and short. Overall it was OK, however, it has a bland level design. 7/10
Call of the Machine - Some parts were hectic and difficult. It was OK. 7/10
The Reckoning - Lots of water stuff, traps, and backtracking in a boring dull environment. Not many weapons early on. Overall it's not great and very boring. 6/10
Ground Zero - Good weapons and a fast pace. Decent and fun. 8/10
It's Quake 2. Just play the dang thing
If you want to remove all of quake's personality and make it a generic sci-fi game then yeah its okay i guess
Bought game when it was first released. I like the updates and really enjoyed playing again.
