Release date and price
SNEG first teased the re-release on July 13, 2026 with a Q4 2026 window, narrowed the date on October 19, and shipped the game on November 6, 2026. The official Steam store page lists the base price at $19.99, with a 10% launch discount to $17.99 that ends November 20. Two publisher bundles also reduce the price if you own the other included title: with The Temple of Elemental Evil, or with Forgotten Realms: The Archives – Collection Two (which contains the original Pool of Radiance).
What the re-release changes
At its core this is still the 2001 game, wrapped in what SNEG calls a full suite of enhancements, all adjustable in the in-game settings:
- Runs smoothly on modern hardware, with widescreen support including 4K
- Sharper visuals and numerous fixed original bugs
- Improved UI with an added action bar and tooltips
- Adjustable combat animation speed
- Optional "Legacy" mode preserving the original gameplay and visuals
- Full controller support (including DualShock/DualSense) and reworked camera control
- Steam Achievements (32) and Steam Cloud support
A free demo released on October 30 includes the first location, and demo progress carries over to the full game. A Patch #1 already improved performance, inventory controller navigation, and a font-related crash.
System requirements
The minimum spec is modest: a 64-bit Windows 10/11 machine with a 1.8 GHz CPU, 4 GB RAM and 4 GB of storage.
