The original release dat for the game was supposed to have been late last year but the campany that are making th game, JoWood Entertainment have said that it is now to be released October the 12th this year. They say this is to give the company more time to ‘polish’ the game which im sure is very exciting for all gothic gaming fans. Wikipedia describes the game: ‘Ten years have passed since the end of Gothic 3 and the world has changed – the Southern Islands have become embroiled in conflict, and set the stage for the player to brave countless adventures in the guise of a nameless hero. Decisions will have to be made which will change not only the future of the Southern Islands, but of the entire world. Old acquaintances and new faces will aid the hero or attempt to thwart his efforts throughout his journey.‘
Looking at the games official website the graphics look astounding but apart from that there is not much else that you can find out about it. The Third installment of the game, Gothic III has been given a four star review by most companies and critics so im sure the new game will be even better and we look forward to seeing the outcome.
