Hexen: Deathkings of the Dark Citadel

Hexen: Deathkings of the Dark Citadel is the only official expansion pack for Hexen: Beyond Heretic, released on September 3, 1996. The game features 26 new levels: 20 new single player maps spread across three hubs, and six new deathmatch maps. Deathkings begins where the original Hexen story ended. Having discovered the Chaos Sphere after the defeat of Korax, the heroes are whisked away by it to the Realm of the Dead, and they must find their way home. Getting back will not be easy, though, for the way is blocked by the Dark Citadel.

-'''Doom95''' is an official port of Doom to the Microsoft Windows operating system, and is included in many later releases of The Ultimate Doom, Doom II, and Final Doom. This port was developed by a team at Microsoft started by Gabe Newell, who later co-founded Valve Software and developed Half-Life, and headed by Alex St. John, the creator of the DirectX specification. It was to serve as a flagship for the new technology, and was released on August 20, 1996.
