3D Realms Announces Spiritual Successor To Hexen 2, Arriving On Switch In 2021
Remember the 1997 FPS Hexen II? Well, here’s it’s spiritual successor, GRAVEN – coming to Switch next year.
The game premiered this weekend at Realms Deep 2020 – 3D Realms’ digital weekend celebrating all-things FPS. It combines the Hexen series’ dark-fantasy gameplay with action-adventure.
You’ll take up the mantle of a disgraced Priest in a medieval world where all sorts of monstrosities roam free, as you root out the heretics corrupting the brotherhood and help commoners with their woes.
There are more than 30 upgradable weapons and spells, three expansive open-ended regions and you can even team up with a friend in split-screen co-op, or form a party of four online.
Here’s the full press release along with some screenshots and an extended look:
GRAVEN delves into a gruesome medieval world of deities and monstrosities as a disgraced Priest of the Orthogonal Order. When a heretical member of the Order sacrifices the Priest’s adoptive daughter, the Priest lethally retaliates in a bout of righteous fury. Tried and found guilty by his brothers and now exiled to the burning sands, he closes his eyes for one last prayer, for peace. The Creator speaks to him directly: “You will have to earn your peace.”
Heed the Creator by hunting down the foul heretical sects responsible for conjuring plagues and twisting the natural order of the seasons. Blending action, exploration, and puzzle-solving, GRAVEN takes cues from classic shooters, immersive sims, and action RPGs alike. Journey across three expansive, open-ended regions, and scour the lands to purge evil.
Carefully observe a reactive world to find the way: with a journal, the player drives the exploration instead of following waypoints. Listen to townsfolks’ woes and slay the monsters responsible for their torment. Banish over thirty distinct enemies from plagued madmen to swamp beasts with powerful sorceries such as wild blasts of lightning and scorching rays of flame. Solve environmental puzzles with those same powers, altering the world with spells.
Wield destructive conventional weaponry, including magic staves and wrist-mounted crossbows. Find hidden gold to upgrade weapons and spells at blacksmiths and alchemists. Return to previously-plundered areas with new abilities to uncover secrets and entirely new areas. With more than 30 weapons and spells, GRAVEN encourages experimentation. Play solo, with one friend in split-screen co-op, or even in a party of four online for complete arcane chaos.

It's unclear where publisher Activision will stream the game's multiplayer, but you can set a reminder on Twitter to be notified when the broadcast will go live. The reveal will likely be livestreamed on the official Call of Duty Twitch and YouTube channels. It's also unclear what aspects of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War's multiplayer will be shown, as well as how it will connect to Warzone.
The Call of Duty Twitter account shared a brief teaser video of what appears to be unseen Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War footage. The clip, below, shows players shooting in a desolate cavern, driving around on dune buggies, and evading exploding helicopters.

Random: World Of Tanks Dev Would “Love” To Do An Advance Wars Collab
If you were around during the GBA and DS generation, you’ll no doubt remember Intelligent Systems’ turn-based tactical series, Advance Wars (starting out with Famicom Wars in Japan). Although there’s no sign of a return, these games are still fondly remembered by many Nintendo fans around the world.
One individual who would “love” to see more from this series is Wargaming’s Thaine Lyman. In an interview with Nintendo Everything, he was asked if he would like to see his company’s recent Switch release – World of Tanks Blitz – collaborate with a Nintendo franchise like Advance Wars.
While there are no current plans to do so, Lyman thinks the future with Nintendo is filled with possibilities:
“Funny that you should mention Advance Wars, it’s one of my favorite Nintendo game series. Personally, I’d love to do something with that entire game universe. That said, there are no current plans to do so. Honestly, Wargaming loves collaborating with great franchises and bringing gaming universes together, so naturally we’re very excited at the opportunities coming to the Nintendo Switch could bring. The future with Nintendo is full of nothing but possibility.”
In the past, World of Tanks has collaborated with series like Valkyria Chronicles and even Girls Und Panzer. Both of these games focus on war…and tanks, so Advance Wars seemingly fits the criteria. Would you be interested in this beloved Nintendo series returning as a collaborative sort of thing? How about a return in general? Fire off a comment down below.
