Gothic series

Group Description

The games in the Gothic series are RPGs, developed by Piranha Bytes, are set in a dark fantasy/medieval game world. They are also known for their use of adult themes and situations. After developing three main games in the series, publisher JoWood announced in June 2007 to continue development on the series with another studio. This happened likely because of the amount of bugs in Gothic 3. The gold master was even called back because of it.

After the release of the third game the development team broke up with the publisher. JoWood now owns the rights to the name Gothic and the franchise, and not Piranha Bytes/Pluto 13. This was officially confirmed on 6th June 2007.
