‘Gothic’ Remake To Have Microtransactions

Sorry Gothic fans, THQ’s remake will be committing gaming sin by adding MTX into the upcoming game. Gothic will be introducing the “G-Store” in the game where players spend G-Coins to purchase cosmetics, stronger weapons, creature-type-damage focus enhancers, XP boosters, skill resets, and pets. Players can earn coins one of two ways; watching Gothic live streams, for each hour watching the Gothic Remake in a stream, registered users will be rewarded with G-Coins, and buying coins with real money. Reinhard Pollice, Studio Head at Alkimia Interactive & Business and Development Director at THQ Nordic had this to say -we did a representative survey in our financial department and 100% of the people agreed, that this is a fantastic idea!” Just like how it worked for, Red Dead Online, Star Wars Battlefront II, Evolve, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Call of Duty WWII, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, Dead Space 3, and anyone else you the reader

‘Gothic’ Remake Will Head Into Production Says THQ Nordic!

Previously I wrote about THQ Nordic announcing the possibility of remaking the legendary action RPG game Gothic. Along with the news they released a playable teaser on STEAM in which afterward 180,000 players answered survey questions and the results were as THQ Nordic put it, “unambiguous”, 94.8% of fans loved what they saw and support the idea of a remake. Today THQ Nordic announced that the Gothic remake will be going into production! THQ Nordic will be establishing a new studio in Barcelona, Spain that will take on the task of creating the remake using player feedback. One big demand by players is a grittier and less colorful world in the final game than what was seen in the playable teaser. The Gothic remake will not be coming anytime soon but will be developed for PC and next-gen consoles.

Action RPG ‘Gothic’ To Possibly Be Remade

THQ Nordic Barcelona is giving gamers the chance to offer their opinion on their upcoming project, a remake of cult classic Action RPG, Gothic. Players and fans of the popular series are invited to play the “Playable Teaser” which can show fans the true potential of how the game can look and feel once it’s finished. If fans approve it may take some time for the game to be released as the small development team plans to rebuild the game from the ground up fixing issues that plagued the game since 2001 (like the combat system). The two-hour-long prototype of Gothic is available on Steam and is only accessible for free to those who own any of the following titles Gothic, Gothic 2, Gothic 3, Risen, Risen 2, Risen 3, or ELEX. If you don’t own any of these titles, you’ll have to buy one of the games in order to have access to the playable prototype.
