    Fortunately, the remake is being made by THQ Nordic.

    Edit: Or maybe I should say Alkimia Interactive which is a part of THQ Nordic. Piranha Bytes also was part of ThQ Nordic after they were bought in 2019. Despite the closure of Piranha Bytes, THQ Nordic retains the rights to the Gothic, Risen, and Elex intellectual properties​ so the series are not dead I think and there is new studio from Piranha Bytes developers Pithead Studio

      How is that fortunate though?

      THQ Nordic, the company which became Embracer, bought Piranha Bytes, shuttered the studio when they fucked up, and is now using their IP for a remake?
