it's a free update if you already own it on Steam. so not really a 're-release'

and there's much more than just the new graphics. this article details it: https://www.pcgamer.com/quake-2-remaster-release/

  • The original campaign, expansions The Reckoning and Ground Zero, the N64 levels, and the new Call of the Machine episode
  • Toggleable graphics upgrades that are stylistically consistent with the original (muzzle flashes, fog, improved lighting, that kind of thing)
  • Loads of accessibility features
  • Split-screen and online multiplayer
  • Co-op, deathmatch, team deathmatch, and CTF, with lots of built-in mutators
  • PC/console crossplay
  • Support for custom Quake 2 maps, new and old
  • Support for new mods, or old ones that have been updated for this 64-bit version
  • Improved AI enemies and bots
