When a name like Acclaim returns, you can't help but expect fireworks. For gamers of a certain age (me included), Acclaim is more than a publisher; it's a time capsule of the '90s and early noughties. This was the label that gave us NBA Jam, Burnout, Re-Volt, Turok, and Shadow Man. It's the kind of back catalogue that makes you imagine instant remasters, slick reboots, maybe even a comeback tour for a series or two.

On August 7, Bethesda released remastered versions of Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders, Hexen: Beyond Heretic, and Hexen: Deathkings of the Dark Citadel without warning.
