v1.0 Launch

This is a guide-site changelog: we track Gothic 1 Remake’s patches here and re-stamp our guides against the current build. It is not an official patch note.

Gothic 1 Remake launched on June 5, 2026, developed by Alkimia Interactive and published by THQ Nordic. Every guide on this site is currently written and verified against the 1.0 launch build.

What we’re tracking at launch

  • Lockpicking — the remake replaces the old left/right combination with a sliding-plate puzzle. Player sentiment has been mixed, and the developers have said they are monitoring feedback. We’ll update the lockpicking guide if the mechanic changes in a patch.
  • PC crashes — some players reported launch-day crashes; the developers signalled a PC patch was coming shortly after release. See Troubleshooting for current workarounds.

How updates work here

When a notable patch lands, we add an entry here, note what changed, and re-verify affected guides. The version stamp at the top of each guide tells you exactly which build it reflects.
