Jeff has announced that Avernum 2: Crystal Souls will be released late 2014 :)

http://www.avernum.com/avernum2/index.html

It's a shame that, when released, the option of purchasing it via GOG will be very slim. Come on GOG, do us Avernum fans a favour and get the remakes here!

Yeah, GOG should bring the remakes here along with rest of the missing Spiderweb games.

Here you'll find links wishlist entries of each missing SW games so people can vote for them.

Yes, I voted for all of these months ago :(
Seriously hopeful to see Crystal Souls on GOG. Exile 2 was by far my favourite of the originals - indeed, one of my favourite 'oldschool' rpgs, and I've been eagerly looking forward to the "remake-of-the-remake".
Did GOG ever give a proper reason why they're not selling the Avernum remake?
Or Nethergate, for that matter.

They like being idiots with their decisions. A little bit too selective I would say.
Good news regarding Avernum 2 and GOG...

Avernum 2: Crystal Souls Almost Ready
Our newest game, a ground-up rewrite of our beloved indie hit Avernum 2, is almost ready. Barring disaster, Avernum 2: Crystal Souls will be out on Steam, the Mac App Store, gog.com, and our own store in January. (Taken from Spiderweb Software newsletter)

Although it seems odd that GOG doesn't have Avernum: Escape from the Pit in their catalogue. Maybe there will be a rethink and both titles will make it here (at last!).
If GOG has decided to include Crystal Souls in the catalog, maybe they're just waiting for its release to also add Escape from the Pit.

They'll probably release both games simultaneously. I already have first Avernum remake on Steam, but if they release it here, I'll probably pick it up again.

Finally! If only that meant hope for Nethergate.

Did GOG ever say why they don't want Nethergate? It made a certain kind of sense to not get the Avernum remakes when the originals were already available, but Nethergate is an original game.

Their reasoning can be fairly unintelligible honestly. I wish they would accept more games than they would reject, or something better than the current system.
avernum 2 was announced for january 14th release
