Description

Gothic II: Gold Edition brings together the excitement of Gothic II and the add-on Night of the Raven to your fingertips! 

You have torn down the magical barrier and released the prisoners of the Mine Valley. Now the former criminals of the forests and mountains are causing trouble around the capital of Khorinis. The town militia is powerless due to their low amount of force–outside of the town, everyone is helpless against the attacks of the bandits. 

 

  • Over 100 thrilling missions on the different settings
  • A detailed, lively game environment with over 500 individual characters (each with their own daily routine)
  • The player determines the course of the story himself
  • Fight with more than 200 different weapons and magical spells
  • Over 12 hours of complete, English voice output
  • Includes the Night of the Raven add-on

One of the greatest RPGs ever made

I first played Gothic back in 2001 when I was a teenager, and it absolutely blew my mind. Gothic II builds on everything that made the first game special—its atmosphere, world-building, and brutal, immersive RPG mechanics—and turns it into something legendary. Even decades later, few games offer a world that feels this alive. Every NPC has a daily routine. The factions are meaningful. Your decisions matter. And the difficulty? Oh, it's no hand-holding here—you earn every inch of progress, and that's what makes it so satisfying. The Night of the Raven expansion adds an entirely new dimension, with an expanded story and one of the most memorable zones in the game: Jharkendar. The challenge is steeper, but the rewards—both gameplay and emotional—are worth it. Yes, the controls are clunky. Yes, the combat takes getting used to. But if you're a fan of RPGs that respect your intelligence, give you freedom, and reward exploration and patience—there is nothing quite like Gothic II. This game is part of my gaming soul. If you’ve never played it, now’s the time. If you have? You already know: there's no place like Khorinis.

Most RPGs should learn from this game

The game is an old classic, a bit rough around the edges but it has so much heart and you feel like you acomplished something when you advance through the game unlike with all the newer RPGs where there is always a marker showing you where to go and what exactly to do. It is pretty hard however and coupled with the jank it can get slightly frustrating at times, but it is worth it like no other game if you like RPGs where you actually have to think and try a bit harder.

Review 2025

This review reflects the current technical state the game is in, not the quality of the original Gothic 2 Gold released in 2005. I bought the GOG-version of the game 6 years ago and played it without any technical problems from start to finish. I have recently downloaded the game once again and it refuses to launch properly. It took me about 4 hours, some computer knowledge and a lot of community patches to get the game to a serviceable state. GOG-technical support forums were also of little help, so without german/polish language fluency I imagine a lot of people are going to struggle to find the community patches and apply them properly. As GOG charges money for this release, it is their JOB to make sure that the game can be run using modern hardware without issues. So far, a customer has to spend at least 4 hours to apply a plethora of community patches to make the game playable. You have been warned.
