I’ll be honest, they managed to hold on way longer than I’d thought. Still sad to see them go, Gothic has to be one of my favorite games.

Well shit. That actually kinda sucks.

Embracer folding another of it’s purchases.

damn. they were heroes of my childhood.

Sooo I probably shouldn’t hold onto any hope for that Gothic reboot we were promised?

So, has Embracer officially surpassed EA’s killstreak of video game studio closures yet? They’ve got to be getting close.

As disappointing as this news seems I hadn’t enjoyed anything they’d made after Gothic 2. Gothic 3 had some merit but it felt burned out of ideas, and that was released in 2006.

Man, I know Elex is not as well known and received as Gothic but it still is my favorite open world game ever. There is just something about the mixture of science fiction, high fantasy and post apocalypse Mad Max style that made me fall in love with the game. In the beginning the big monsters in this world are fucking strong and beat my ass every time. I loved it and it is incredibly rewarding to get stronger and then fuck those bastards up - just to get mauled by the next even stronger monster/robot. One of the very few open world games where I actually explored every nook and cranny! You will be missed Piranha Bytes!
