Evaluation

Nethergate: Resurrection is a remastered release of Spiderweb Software's 1998 RPG, which arrived on Steam on October 5, 2012. The store description presents it as a complete, self-contained game with two full campaigns (Celtic and Roman sides), and makes no mention of any planned expansions, DLC, or ongoing content support. There is no DLC listed for the game. The only developer communication on record is a minor technical patch on October 14, 2024 (v1.1), which adjusted monitor resolution switching to improve compatibility — the developer's own note describes it as a fix for a "classic from the early history of indie RPGs," framing the game as a finished historical product. No future content has ever been announced or implied.

v1.1 patch addressed a monitor resolution switching issue. Developer describes it as a classic game with a codebase dating to 1998, framing it as a preserved historical title rather than an actively developed one.

About this game

Spiderweb Software's classic adventure of treachery and battle in ancient times has returned! Travel back to ancient Britannia for a tale of cunning foes, vicious battles, and a race to rediscover the lost secrets of magic.

Britannia is a land ravaged by war. The natives of this land, the savage Celts, have long been subjugated by the Roman invaders. At last, they have risen up in bloody rebellion. Battles rage across the land. Cities are sacked, the inhabitants massacred. And, lost in the chaos, in the small, forgotten valley of Shadowvale, a plan is being formed.

Soon, a band of barbarians will rediscover the lost secrets of magic. They will find a way to rid their lands of their oppressors forever. And you, as the Celtic warriors, will attempt to free your people.

Or you, as the Romans, will attempt to crush them. For the good of the Empire.
