Gothic 1 Remake

Gothic 1 Remake is an action role-playing game set in a third-person perspective within a fantasy open world. It is a remake of the 2001 game Gothic, developed by Alkimia Interactive using Unreal Engine 5. The player controls a nameless prisoner sent into the Valley of Mines, a penal colony surrounded by a magical barrier. The game features NPC routines, faction-based quest paths, and a progression system where the player starts with no skills and must learn them from trainers. Navigation is done without a minimap, and the game world is 10 to 30 percent larger than the original, with expanded chapters and additional quest content. It is listed under the Adventure and Role-playing (RPG) genres, and it released in 2026.

Our guides for Gothic 1 Remake cover walkthroughs and quests, collectibles and locations, and builds and loadouts. They are written for players working through the colony, whether you are joining a faction, solving a quest, or looking for a specific item.

The walkthroughs and quests guides cover faction and quest steps, including how to join the Old Camp through the Casting Shadows quest, the lockpicking test in "A Ring for Fingers," Snaf's Recipe Quest and where to find Bugmeats and Hellcaps, and where to find Cor Kalom's Recipe. The collectibles and locations guides cover how to get the map from Graham, including his location and cost, where to find Obsidian and how to use it, every free bed location and how the sleep system works, and how to get rid of Mud, including the Mud Freak achievement and why you should exhaust his dialogue first. The builds and loadouts guide covers how to get a weapon and arm yourself in the colony.

Some of these guides are based on preview builds and the original game, and they note that locations and stats may change in the final release. Check in-game for updates.
