Official description

HeXen II: Portal of Praevus began production in late 1997, following the successful launch of the original game. The team decided to make the expansion much more than a pack of new levels for HeXen II. The goal was to make Portal of Praevus as close to an entirely new game as possible for buyers of the original HeXen II. To do this, the team made two new hubs, 15 new single player levels, three new enemies and added another character class...the Demoness.

HeXen II owners could play through Portal of Praevus as the former minion of Eidolon or as any of the original four characters. HeXen II: Portal of Praevus merged seamlessly with the Hexen II world and offered a wealth of new options and opportunities for mayhem in both single player and multiplayer gaming.

Hailed as one of the best mission packs ever, HeXen II: Portal of Praevus helped solidify Raven Software's ongoing relationship with Activision Inc, who published the game in 1998.

Comment

This mission pack for Hexen 2 takes place after the fall fo the last Serpent Rider. A new threat has taken the souls of the three serpent riders and is using their power. This game keeps with the detail of the original, plus adds a fith character class to play, a demoness. If you enjoied Hexen II, I highly reccoment getting this mission pack to continue the fun.
