THQ Nordic is the publisher of Gothic 1 Remake. The company owns the Gothic intellectual property and set up Alkimia Interactive in Barcelona in March 2021 specifically to develop the remake, after declining to continue work with the original developer Piranha Bytes.
THQ Nordic handles publishing, marketing, and physical distribution for the game. The following pre-release programmes are all run on the publisher side:
The "Voices Across the Colony" November 2025 behind-the-scenes series covering the four-language voice work
The pre-order campaign, including PC soundtrack bonus and console Gothic Classic bonus
The Standard and Collector's Editions (the Collector's Edition is limited to 7,500 units globally)
The retail rollout across PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S
The "Return to the Colony" release date reveal trailer (February 2026)
See Editions and Pre-Order Bonuses for SKU details and Voice Cast and Localization for the cast and recording-studio partnerships.
THQ Nordic also holds the Gothic Classic re-releases (the 2001 Gothic sold on modern storefronts) that are being bundled with physical console pre-orders of the remake. The company's stewardship of the IP includes both the original game's continued availability and the remake's launch.
