Developer thanks passionate community for strong launch performance
Alkimia Interactive developed the remake while THQ Nordic handles publishing duties. Gothic 1 Remake is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S following its initial launch many years ago.
The developer thanked the community for supporting the Gothic franchise over the past 25 years. This milestone would not have been possible without such a passionate player base according to official statements from both companies.
The title enters the market alongside other recent releases, though it is distinct from typical strategy or simulation games. Gothic 1 Remake features open-world role-playing gameplay set in a dark fantasy world.
Alkimia Interactive and THQ Nordic share excitement over this initial success. They extend thanks to all players who have entered the Colony so far including long-time dedicated fans of the series.
