At the recent THQ Nordic Digital Showcase, we got another extended new look at the upcoming remake of cult classic open world RPG Gothic, with a new gameplay trailer revealing fresh details on the upcoming game.
Set in the Valley of Mines, a place that no one can escape from, Gothic’s open world is occupied by three different main factions with different motivations, details on which are offered in the new trailer. THQ Nordic and developer Alkimia Interactive have also revealed new details on the open world setting and how, similar to the original, it will attempt to thoroughly immerse players in a living, breathing world. As you might imagine, that will also lead to plenty of emphasis on player choice, with the trailer promising a reactive world that will always take players’ actions and decisions into account.
Beyond that, in addition to touching on the game’s combat and exploration mechanics, the trailer also hints at new story content in the remake that wasn’t present in the original Gothic, as well as gameplay enhancements such as more diverse NPC routines and reactions, improved progression mechanics, more complex crafting systems, and more.
Check out the trailer below for more details.
Gothic is in development for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. It doesn’t yet have an official release date or window.
