Players highly appreciated the faithfulness to the spirit of the original — an 81% rating in the first days.
The Gothic remake, released on June 5, received a confident start on Steam: in the first 48 hours after release, the peak concurrent player count exceeded 63 thousand. The rating on the platform stands at 81% with more than five thousand reviews — the overall score is "very positive."
Authors of positive reviews agree: the developers from Alkimia Interactive managed to accurately recreate the atmosphere of the 2001 original. Players note the careful approach to the source material — the team improved what needed updating without touching what made "Gothic" unique.
Among critical remarks, the most frequently mentioned are issues with optimization, graphics, and lockpicking mechanics — the latter was considered by some users to be excessively demanding in terms of skill point investment. The game is available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S; in the Russian Steam store, its price is 2700 rubles.
