Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition is a re-release of Neverwinter Nights with enhancements beyond patch 1.69 of the original game. It is developed by Beamdog and published by Skybound Games. The game was released on 27 March 2018 for PC, Macintosh, and Linux, 29 October 2018 for Android, 3 December 2019 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, and 12 August 2020 for iOS.

Since 2018, Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition replaced the Neverwinter Nights Diamond release of the game on Steam and GOG.

Upgrades past the original release of the game include a Beamdog server listing that replaced the original GameSpy listing which was shut down and cannot be used in the current timeline. Graphical improvements have been done in later updates. An increased amount of settings is present in the PC version of the Enhanced Edition, as well as a new UI option that allows the UI to be arbitrarily scaled up to 2x size and a new smoothly scaling font to match. A new campaign menu with a brand new menu select screen has also been introduced, along with a fullscreen title screen menu. The ability to have up to eight character classes on a character has also been introduced, but this is not active for all modules by default.

There are upgrades for the Aurora Toolset, which introduce new scripting functions and extended .2da options. Custom content can also inject custom races more easily into the updated character creation menu.

The Enhanced Edition release on consoles was the first time Neverwinter Nights was released on consoles. The PlayStation 4 version has Trophy support and the Xbox One version has Achievements support. None of the console versions include the Aurora Toolset included in the PC version, and custom modules cannot be used in the console version.

The Enhanced Edition release on Android and later iOS was also the first time the game was released for mobile devices. The mobile version, unlike the console version, supports custom content and modules. The Aurora Toolset for creating modules is not available.
