9. Gothic

Way back in Late-February 2020 (which I think was about 8 years ago now) THQ Nordic cut the foreplay and finally announced that it's going to revive Gothic for PlayStation 5. Releasing a teaser on steam and then going as far as establishing a brand new studio (ooh!) in Barcelona (ooooooooh!) to make it a reality.

After over 90% of teaser players responded to their survey by imploring them to do a proper version and, thus, make the lives of janky control fetishists worth living again, THQ Nordic Director Reinhard Pollice said; “We are up for the challenge to develop a full Gothic remake which will stay as faithfully as possible to the original experience".

Quite when it'll drop isn't yet known, but the game will be a faithful reimagining of the 2001 fantasy classic where you complete quests, kill animals, and accrue skill points to save the realm. It'll be the first Gothic game since 2011's Arcania: Fall of Setarrif.
