Temple of Elemental Evil Returns to Steam in Official Build With 1,000+ Fixes

The new release formalizes years of community patches into an official version with more than 1,000 fixes across stability, AI, performance, UI, and quality-of-life.

Overview

  • Sneg launched the Steam version on December 10, 2025, consolidating decades of community work into a single, supported build.
  • The release incorporates Circle of Eight and Temple+ efforts, with over 1,000 changes spanning stability improvements, smarter AI, smoother performance, a refined interface, and usability upgrades.
  • Restored and added content now ships by default, including new or reworked sidequests, previously missing areas, and conveniences like a magic loot chest.
  • Modern usability features include high-resolution support and an optional windowed mode to better fit contemporary displays.
  • The update reframes the 2003 Troika RPG from a notoriously buggy launch to a preserved showcase of faithful D&D 3.5 turn-based combat set in Greyhawk.
