Gothic Remake Pre-Orders Now Open With Free Gothic Classic Bonus on Consoles

Publisher THQ Nordic and developer Alkimia Interactive announced on April 7, 2026, that digital pre-orders for the Gothic Remake are now available.
The upcoming action role-playing game is scheduled for a global release on June 5, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
Customers who pre-order the console version for $59.99 will receive Gothic Classic as a free bonus, which is available to play immediately.
PC players can secure the title through Steam or GOG for $49.99 and will receive the official digital soundtrack as an incentive.
Original composer Kai Rosenkranz has returned to reimagine the music for the remake, blending familiar themes with new compositions.
The Gothic Remake is a ground-up recreation of the 2001 classic that originally established the open world RPG subgenre.
Set within the Valley of the Mines, the story follows a nameless prisoner navigating a penal colony trapped under a malfunctioning magical barrier.
Players must survive a treacherous environment filled with orcish hordes and choose between three competing factions to determine their fate.
This modern version features over 50 hours of gameplay and introduces expanded questlines along with a modernized combat system.
Technical enhancements for the project include the use of Unreal Engine 5 to provide updated visuals and more complex NPC daily routines.
