The team will develop a remake of the iconic German RPG Gothic, originally released in 2001.
A playable teaser for the Gothic Remake has been recently released and it appears that we will get the full version.
Over 180.000 people have played the playable teaser so far, and after studying more than 43.000 answered surveys, THQ Nordic decided to launch the development of the full remake.
THQ Nordic will launch a new studio in Barcelona, Spain to work on a grittier and less colorful world. "We are up for the challenge to develop a full Gothic Remake which will stay as faithfully as possible to the original experience and transport the atmospheric world of Gothic into a high-quality look and carefully modernizing certain gameplay mechanics," said Reinhard Pollice Business and Product Development Director at THQ Nordic.
The full Gothic Remake will be developed for PC and next-gen consoles. Please note that the game will not be coming in 2020.
