11 Patch 1.0.4 is a post-launch update for Gothic 1 Remake released on July 31, 2026, the fourth numbered patch since launch. It reached PC first; the studio said console versions would follow a little later, and no console date had been announced as of early August 2026.

See Accessories, which also covers the 1.0.4 fixes to amulet and ring bonuses.Decomposed corpses. Quest items can be looted from decomposed corpses, which previously blocked collection.
