Gothic Remake to Enter Production

THQ Nordic announced that, after reviewing feedback for its playable teaser, it is beginning production on a full remake of the first Gothic game. The remake will be made by a new studio based in Barcelona, Spain, for PC and next-generation consoles. A release window has not been announced, but THQ Nordic confirmed that it will not launch in 2020.

The original Gothic game was developed by Piranha Bytes and released for PC in 2001. The game is an action RPG set in a medieval fantasy realm that spawned two official follow-ups, as well as the Arcania spin-off that was originally titled Arcania: Gothic 4.
