Alkimia Interactive, creators of the highly anticipated Gothic 1 Remake, has given journalists early access to a brand-new demo. Originally planned for Gamescom, this demo will soon be available to the public.
This demo acts as a prequel to the full game, introducing a new protagonist: Niras, a prisoner arriving in the Miners' Valley. Unlike the original Nameless Hero, Niras's perspective offers a fresh take on the familiar setting and its inhabitants, laying the groundwork for the larger story.
A Gamescom 2024 exclusive prologue demo already showcased Niras's arrival and introduction to the Colony's harsh realities. This upcoming demo expands upon that, offering a more comprehensive experience of the revitalized Gothic world. Both this demo and the final game are largely rebuilt from the ground up, promising extended gameplay, a deeper exploration of the orcs, and enhanced immersive elements. Expect a richer and more engaging experience than the original.
The Gothic 1 Remake demo will launch on Steam during the Steam Next Fest, available for free from the evening of February 24th to the evening of March 3rd. Don't miss this limited-time opportunity! The full Gothic 1 Remake is slated for release later this year on PC (Steam, GOG), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
