Just in time for Quake II’s 21st anniversary, programmer Krzysztof Kondrak has released his vkQuake2 to the public via GitHub. vkQuake2 is essentially Quake II code v3.21, but with the Vulkan renderer: “What you can expect however is a pure, vanilla Quake II experience. Exactly how it would play back in 1997.”
It requires the Visual Studio 2017 C++ Redistributable (32 bit) to run the application. The release package comes with game data used in the demo version – for full experience, copy all retail Quake II data paks (pak0.pak, pak1.pak, pak2.pak) into the baseq2 folder and run the executable. The mission packs should theoretically work as well.
