Sacred 2 is an action RPG that first made its debut in the early 2000s, quickly earning a loyal following for its ambitious world and distinct personality. It offered a massive, seamless map filled with sprawling towns, dense forests, scorching deserts, and perilous dungeons—all ripe for exploration. Its roster of diverse characters came with rich backstories and unique combat styles that set it apart from other RPGs of its time.

But what truly made Sacred special was its tone. It wasn’t afraid to be funny, mixing dark fantasy with tongue-in-cheek humor and quirky charm. Players could customize their combat arts to match their playstyle, and the innovative Light and Shadow campaigns let you experience the story from two opposing sides, depending on your character’s alignment. Sacred 2 was rough around the edges, but fans embraced its imperfections—and over time, it became a beloved cult classic.

All of this is why today’s news feels especially meaningful: Sacred 2, the iconic RPG, is now available on Xbox Series X|S for the very first time. This marks a major milestone—not just for the franchise, but for the millions of fans who’ve called Ancaria home for over two decades.

At its core, Sacred 2 is more than a game—it’s a piece of modern art. Video games are one of the most powerful storytelling mediums of our time, and this remaster is our tribute to that legacy. It’s a love letter to the fans, a celebration of 20 years of adventure, and a promise that the world of Ancaria will continue to evolve.

Bringing Sacred 2 to life on today’s platforms has been a technical challenge, but one the team has embraced wholeheartedly. Our team rebuilt the game engine from the ground up to ensure a smooth, immersive experience across all devices. Xbox players will enjoy the same rich gameplay as PC players previously experienced.

This remaster isn’t just a visual upgrade. It’s a celebration of everything that made the original Sacred unforgettable: the humor, the chaos, and of course, the Blind Guardians. We’ve preserved the soul of the game while enhancing it for a new generation of players While we couldn’t include everything from the community patches over the years, we did our best to include material that added to the player experience where possible.

We placed a lot of importance and effort on making the experience smooth for Xbox players- regardless of if players enjoyed the game 20 years ago or are brand new to the franchise. Our graphics have stayed true to the original to preserve the original look and feel of the game. We’re excited to welcome the community back to Ancaria, and we’re committed to supporting the title post launch. Our future updates will be influenced by community support and feedback, and we’re looking forward to the future of Sacred.

Sacred 2 Remaster launches today, and is available on Xbox Series X|S.
