Gothic - PlayStation 5

The Kingdom of Myrtana, a realm of grandeur and might, finds itself under the relentless onslaught of an unyielding orcish horde. King Rhobar II, a monarch of wisdom and courage, finds himself in dire need of a substantial amount of magical ore. This precious resource is crucial in the creation of formidable weapons, the only hope against the orcish invaders. To meet this urgent demand, the King employs all available prisoners to operate the mines of Khorinis, a place now echoing with the relentless clink of pickaxes against rock.

In a bid to prevent any potential escape, the King calls upon his most skilled magicians, tasking them with the creation of a magical barrier. However, the unpredictable nature of magic rears its head, and the spell spirals out of control. The result is a mutiny that transforms the mines into a wild, lawless territory, now under the iron fist of the most ruthless prisoners.

With the mines under new management, the King finds himself in a precarious position, forced to negotiate with the very criminals he once imprisoned. As the tension between the various factions within the mines escalates, an unexpected event occurs. The arrival of an unknown prisoner, a wildcard, a game-changer, promises to alter the course of events dramatically.

Embark on a journey back to The Colony in this full-blown remake of the revolutionary and much-loved game, Gothic, first released in 2001. Prepare to rediscover the world of the mining colony, a place teeming with secrets to uncover and challenges to overcome. This is a world where every decision matters, and every action has a consequence.

Step into the shoes of the Nameless Hero, a character shrouded in mystery and intrigue. As a prisoner sentenced to a lifetime of toil, you must navigate a world teeming with wild animals, mythical creatures, and dangerous convicts. Survival is the name of the game, and every day is a battle against the odds.
