AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition for Pegasos 2 – Now available digitally!

Hi everyone,

Thanks for visiting my blog! This morning while browsing through recent Amiga news, I was happy to discover that Hyperion Entertainment finally have made AmigaOS 4.1 FE for Pegasos 2 available digitally!

This is excellent news, especially for those interested in running AmigaOS 4 through QEMU as a Pegasos 2 setup. 🙂

According to Hyperion, more AmigaOS 4 versions will follow as physical stock runs out in stores. A price adjustment has also been made.

Please read on for the press release published on their website:

AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition for Pegasos 2 is now available digitally

Brussels – September 9., 2025

Over the past few months, we have seen a massive increase in demand for AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition for Pegasos 2. Since all physical copies are sold out, we have decided to make the ISO available for digital purchase.

The ISO can be purchased via 2Checkout. Once you have purchased your copy, you will receive a serial number that can be used to register at www.hyperion-entertainment.com.

As stock of the other versions of AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition runs out, they will also be made available for digital download.

The price of AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition has not been adjusted for almost 20 years, even though inflation and rising production costs have increased considerably. Therefore, the price of the digital download version of AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition for Pegasos 2 is €39.95 including VAT.

The price of the digital version of AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition for Classic has also been adjusted to €39.95 including VAT.

That was all for now. Thanks for reading and have a nice day!

Hi there,

Many thanks for visiting the Old School Game Blog. 🙂

Not long ago, Hyperion Entertainment released a new port of Heretic II for AmigaOS 4 by Steffen Häuser a.k.a. TheMagicSN. Häuser has since then been working hard on making various mods available, as well as multiplayer support for the game. Not only that, he’s been working on a new updated port of Quake 2 for AmigaOS 4 as well!

This port of Quake 2 was released today. It is available for purchase at Alinea Computer in Germany. Since it is a download, you’ll get access to it very quickly.

The price is 14.95 EUR.

Here’s the information from Alinea Computer:

Quake 2 is without doubt one of the most famous 3D shooters. Quake 2 was released on the PC by id Software in 1997. In 2002, Hyperion Entertainment released a version for AmigaOS 3.x, based on the GPL source code of the game. Steffen Häuser has now created a new version for AmigaOS 4, which also offers numerous improvements compared to the 4.1 Quake 2 update released a few years ago. In particular, the Quake 2 Mission CDs, which offer countless new levels, are supported for the first time in a native OS4.1 version. Warp3DNova (and MiniGL and software renderers) are also supported natively.

This game, based on the GPL source code, also requires the data files of the PC version, either as a CD or the data of the Steam or Gog Classic version (for the latter two, simply copy them to a directory on your hard drive and select this directory during installation).

Features

• AmigaOS 4 native version
• GL4ES, MiniGL and Software Renderer
• full support for mission CDs “The Reckoning” and “Ground Zero”
• Ports to the unofficial mission CD “Zaero” and to about 50 multiplayer mods will be published on os4depot/Aminet soon, these downloads require the new version of Quake 2
• AmigaInput support
• CD Audio works again (in the old version it only worked with older CD drives)
• As an alternative to CD Audio, Ogg Vorbis files can be played as soundtrack, the music files from this version are already pre-installed during a Steam/Gog install
• Installer now works with PC CD of Quake 2 as well as with the Steam and Gog Classic version, when using the Steam/Gog Classic installer the two mission CDs are installed at the same time. We recommend using the Steam version for easy installation.
• As an alternative to the .cin intros, the game now also supports .avi and .mpeg files (a script to convert the .ogv files of the Steam version is included on the ISO if you want the higher resolution video files)

System requirements

• Software: AmigaOS 4.1 and the data files from Steam, Gog or CD version.
• Hardware: At least 150 MHz PowerPC, 32 MB RAM, graphics card, at least
• 1 GB free hard disc space, A1222 is currently not supported, game can also be played on QEmu and UAE PPC

That was all for now. 🙂 Thank you again for visiting the Old School Game Blog. I wish you a great weekend!
