Hexen: Beyond Heretic vs Hexen II Mission Pack: Portal of Praevus

After the defeat of D'Sparil in Heretic, Hexen transports players to the decaying world of Cronos, where the Serpent Rider Korax threatens to plunge the realm into chaos. Three heroes—a warrior, a mage, and a cleric—must navigate elemental dungeons, wilderness, and a necropolis to stop his evil regime. The game blends first‑person shooting, spellcasting, and puzzle solving, offering both single‑player and split‑screen multiplayer experiences. Players can run, walk, fly, and explore a richly detailed fantasy‑horror environment while hunting powerful artifacts and mastering unique class abilities.

Hexen II: Portal of Praevus adds new levels, enemies, and weapons to the beloved 1998 fantasy shooter. The expansion continues the series' blend of first‑person action and RPG elements, delivering fresh challenges for both solo and cooperative play. Available for PC and Mac, the pack retains the original's dark medieval atmosphere while introducing new spells and puzzles. Fans of the original will appreciate the seamless integration and the added depth to the game's lore.
