Alkimia Interactive, the studio behind the highly anticipated Gothic 1 Remake, has given journalists early access to a 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' interactions with the valley's inhabitants will shape a unique narrative arc.
A previous prologue demo, showcasing Niras' arrival and introduction to the Colony's harsh environment, was shown at Gamescom 2024. This expanded demo will soon be available to all players, offering a taste of the Gothic world's revitalized visuals and gameplay. Both the demo and the final game are nearly entirely rebuilt, promising extended playtime, a deeper focus on the orcs, and enhanced immersion. Expect a significantly richer experience than the original.
The latest Gothic 1 Remake demo will launch on Steam as part of the Steam Next Fest, available for free from the evening of February 24th until the evening of March 3rd. Don't miss this limited-time opportunity! The full release of Gothic 1 Remake is scheduled for later this year on PC (Steam, GOG), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
