Exclusive Xbox Game Pass Leak Unveils Highly Anticipated Game Coming Next Week!

Highlights

Quake 2 Remastered may be released on Xbox Game Pass next week as part of QuakeCon 2023.

QuakeCon has a history of surprise announcements, and the rumored Quake 2 remaster aligns with this tradition.

QuakeCon 2023 takes place from August 10 to August 13.

A recent leak suggests that Quake 2 Remastered may be released on Xbox Game Pass next week during QuakeCon 2023. Microsoft acquired ZeniMax Media and its subsidiaries to expand their game collection for Xbox Game Pass, including titles like Quake 2 under the id Software/Bethesda/ZeniMax Media umbrella. It is expected that the remastered version of the game will be available on Game Pass from the day of its release.

QuakeCon is an annual convention centered around the Quake franchise, also featuring other Bethesda games. Surprise announcements have been a tradition at QuakeCon, such as the remastered version of the original Quake released a few years ago. Rumors now suggest that history may repeat itself with the rumored remaster of Quake 2. QuakeCon 2023 is scheduled from August 10 to August 13, and fans will eagerly await any potential announcements during this week.

This isn't the first time we've heard about a possible Quake 2 remaster, so it would actually be more unexpected if the game isn't announced at QuakeCon next week. It would also be quite surprising if the game was quietly released but excluded from Xbox Game Pass for some unknown reason. And since this recent leak comes from the trusted insider billbil-kun, it holds more credibility than other gaming "leaks" floating around. Assuming there are no unforeseen setbacks or changes in plans, it seems safe to assume that Xbox Game Pass subscribers will likely have the opportunity to play Quake 2 Remastered at some point during the upcoming week.

If the rumored Quake 2 Remastered is indeed real, the question arises as to how it will measure up to the previously released Quake 2 RTX. A remaster in its own right, the main attraction of Quake 2 RTX lies in its implementation of ray-tracing technology. It is possible that Quake 2 Remastered will also feature ray-tracing graphics, but fans would be wise to await an official announcement before getting overly excited about this possibility.

Considered by many to be one of the greatest first-person shooter games ever created, the return of Quake 2 is eagerly awaited. Its availability on Xbox Game Pass will allow it to reach an even wider audience, potentially enticing those who may not have given the older game a chance to try it out. It is worth mentioning that Quake 2's campaign supports cooperative gameplay, and the remaster is likely to include a variety of multiplayer modes as well. As a result, Game Pass subscribers seeking a game to enjoy with their friends are in for a delightful experience.
