Depth of Field (disabled by default - but good for photos)Īdditionally there are a number of texture improvements available for modders Lighting and Water Improvements. 
The options menu lists these enhanced visual shaders included for personal taste on most platforms
You can select a scaling multiplier for the games default UI. Improved UI for some parts of the GUI (such as debug, options menu). Keyholing to see through tiles is included. The game runs in 64bit allowing more memory to be used by the game to load high quality assets, and allows more than the NWN default of 64MB texture memory. You now have a proper \My Documents\Neverwinter Nights (Windows) ~/Documents/Neverwinter Nights (macOS) or ~/.local/share/Neverwinter Nights (Linux) folder for all the custom content and settings files, no need to edit the game folder anymore. 
In addition they're now unencrypted and include sources therefore moddable compared to the old Bioware releases. Don't buy just this version if you want to play NWN custom content!ĭLC (Premium Modules) are available on most of these platforms, sometimes containing some patches compared to the original Premium Module releases. You won't ever be building a module for these versions since loading any singleplayer modules or other PW's is, alas, impossible. These can only connect to 2 persistent worlds, Ravenloft and Arileth, and are stuck at an older version of the game, although for singleplayer content it's quite playable and does include newer lighting and some visual improvements and console-specific controls/UI.
Console editions - ported by Skybound Games. Note that the version will lag behind the PC version meaning some missing assets / fixes / new client functionality and some of the GUI files will be different so changes to them can cause issues. Tablet / Phone editions - these contain some changes for their specific versions, especially around the default texture files the game uses, but otherwise should be able to load singleplayer custom content and persistent worlds (easiest using NWSync) since they match the network compatibility of the PC version. Steam comes with full Workshop and Steam Friends support and achievements, and access to Preview and Beta builds. GoG comes with 1.69 as well as EE, if you for some reason wanted 1.69 as well. 
Beamdog comes with it's own client, plus a steam key, so technically two copies. Linux, MacOS and Windows are all supported (although only Windows has the Toolset supported, it can run reliably in Wine). This is the most updated version content and patch wise, and only one for development. PC - Available from Beamdog, GoG and Steam. There are 6 official versions all containing the base Wailing Death campaign, Shadows over Undrentide and Hordes of the Underdark bundled together, some notes for each:
