This is Planescape: Torment like you’ve never seen before.'What can change the nature of a man?'
You are the Nameless One, a hulking figure covered in scars and tattoos collected over the course of countless lives—none of which you can remember, but are now coming back to haunt you. You are prodded awake by Morte, a floating skull and keeper of secrets, to embark on an adventure taking the Nameless One from the dirty streets of Sigil into the mysterious Outer Planes and even into the depths of Hell itself.
Portals riddle the planar metropolis of Sigil, providing access to anywhere in existence, but only if you have the proper key. Known as the 'City of Doors,' Sigil is a neutral ground where demons, devas, and races from across the multiverse gather under the watchful shadow of the Lady of Pain, the city's enigmatic ruler. This is a place where the word is mightier than the sword, where thought defines reality, and belief has the power to reshape worlds.
In your search for answers, you'll find companions matching the strange nature of the planes: a chaste succubus who can kill with a kiss, a confused crossbow-wielding cube, a suit of armor animated by a spirit demanding JUSTICE, and more. With these companions and others at the Nameless One’s side, you will explore worlds in search of answers, all to discover that some destinies cannot be escaped and some memories cost more than even an immortal can bear.

History
Project HistoryPlanescape: Torment was released in 1999 by Black Isle Studios and quickly became one of the best reviewed RPGs of all time. It was one of the first RPG’s to use BioWare’s Infinity Engine and features a Planescape-modified version of the Dungeon & Dragons rules. Planescape: Torment was widely praised both for its ingenious writing as well as its inversion of tropes common to RPG’s and fantasy tales. In the years since its release, Planescape: Torment has maintained its status as a true classic with many fans still holding it up as a masterpiece of the genre. Beamdog, the team behind Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition, Baldur’s Gate II: Enhanced Edition, Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition, and Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear is excited to breathe new life into Planescape: Torment to help it find appreciation with the next generation of Dungeons & Dragons fans.
