Gothic 1 Remake Demo Coming to Steam Next Fest – Featuring New Protagonist Niras

Alkimia Interactive, the developer behind the highly anticipated Gothic 1 Remake, has provided select journalists with early access to a new demo. Originally slated for Gamescom, this demo will soon be available to the public.

This demo acts as a preview of the full game, featuring a new protagonist: Niras, a prisoner arriving in the Miners' Valley. Unlike the original Nameless Hero, Niras's experiences will shape a unique narrative arc within the game's world.

A previous Gamescom 2024 demo showcased Niras's arrival and introduction to the Colony's harsh realities. This upcoming demo will offer a broader look at the revitalized Gothic world, rebuilt from the ground up. Expect extended gameplay, enhanced orc interactions, and improved immersive features, significantly surpassing the original game's experience.

The Gothic 1 Remake demo will debut on Steam during the Steam Next Fest, available for free from the evening of February 24th to the evening of March 3rd. Following this limited-time release, access will be revoked. The full Gothic 1 Remake is scheduled for release later this year on PC (Steam, GOG), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
