Orcs in Gothic 1 Remake Will Become More Humane
Developing remakes is not an easy task, since you need to find the perfect balance between the original and new ideas. Alkimia Interactive, the studio working on Gothic 1 Remake, decided to play a little with the image of orcs.
In a recent interview with GRYOnline, the head of the studio, Reinhard Pollice, said that the remake is being developed for both old and new audiences. To please everyone, the creators did not interfere with the main plot, but corrected some secondary quests and deepened the knowledge of the factions.
In particular, the orcs in the remake will be more developed. Even in the original, the magician Xardas stated that the green-skinned thugs are not actually animals, and their culture is close to human. And in the third part, the orcs were a highly developed civilization. Therefore, in Gothic 1 Remake, players will be able to learn more about this race through additional quests.
Gothic is a game in which you always have freedom of choice, even regarding relations with orcs. During the game, you will be able to earn their respect. In the original, you could be tolerant of them, but in the remake we went even further — you may not be able to join them, but for this you will learn much more about the orcs and even complete several quests.
The release of Gothic 1 Remake is scheduled for spring 2025 for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X / S.
