HeXen II, by Raven Software, is a famous, old FPS game. This entry deals with the latest open source port, Hammer of Thyrion

In 2000, Raven Software released the source code to their class based shooter game Hexen II and its expansion pack Portal of Praevus. Since then, there has been some source ports of this game, most notably the now neglected Anvil of Thyrion project. But nothing has been done for Linux since the beginning of 2002. We now continue the development here for Linux users.
