A story-rich RPG game in a fantasy setting

Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition is an RPG (roleplaying game) that includes a richly detailed story in a fantasy setting that is quite typical of the genre. The player will have to survive combat and explore the game world to progress. Along the way, the player will be accompanied by a party of bizarre companions.

The gameplay of Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition can be likened to games like Baldur’s Gate 3 and Disco Elysium. It features a top-down isometric style and utilizes 2D graphics.

Bringing the world of Planescape to modern computers

The original Planescape: Torment addition was a popular game often credited with being a major inspiration to the CRPG genre as a whole. This version stays authentic to that original in most ways — including graphics — but features many improvements that make the game feel fresh, such as remastered soundtracks and improved interfaces.

A story-rich world

One of the biggest draws of Planescape is the story-rich world available for the player to explore. This world is detailed both in the visual sense but also in terms of things like character dialogue and exposition. The player will also have control over the type of character they control, including the ability to change their class, alignment, and abilities through their choices.

A new game for old fans

Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition makes many changes that bring a popular old game to modern screens, including adapting the graphics for improved display on 4K. It will likely appeal to fans of the original game, though the appeal to people who were not already fans may be limited.
