Here’s just a small preview of previous updates that brought improvements and redesigns to the game’s maps. Here are two examples.

- The Paladin’s special damage bonus against the undead now also works against demons and ghosts - The chance for bonus damage has been increased by 5% - The Temple of the Sleeper map now drops from the first Seeker in the Temple of the Sleeper (right at the start) - The Temple of the Sleeper map has been completely redesigned and now shows the hero’s position - Reworked the West Coast map - Reworked the Coastal Lands map - Reworked the Orc City map (now also sold by an orc m

Hello, this time we have another translation done via AI / manually (Czech)  by a member of the Myrtana team, MucoBubux . Mod is also in English, German.. Story The dark mage Rembel has been defeated, but the Wanderer’s journey is far from over. He sets out in search of a mysterious order known as the Legion , which independently takes up the fight against the minions of Beliar. The kingdom of Myrtana has lost the war against the orcs. Yet there are still free parts of this w

Cralon  is an upcoming PC game by the independent German development studio Pithead Studio , which I have mentioned here several times already. It is a 3D dungeon crawler with RPG and adventure elements , in which the player takes on the role of a hero named Cralon the Brave . The game is inspired by classic titles of the genre such as Ultima Underworld  and Arx Fatalis . Pithead Studio  is a small independent (indie) game development studio from Germany, founded in 2024  in

With a slight delay, here is also the first major patch for Of Ash and Steel  translated into Czech. Personally, the game didn’t really impress me, and judging by most reviews it ended up rather poorly. Based on various comments, I recommend that anyone who hasn’t tried it yet should wait a few more weeks—ideally months—until the large number of bugs gets fixed. I’ll soon update the website, polish the page a bit, and add links to everything you’ll need. The patch was release

Slightly increased the base health of some shaman totems Minor bugs fixed Fixed the armor bonus of “Dragon Slayer Armor” , which was not working correctly A short description of the game’s difficulty levels has been added to the help window Cursed : resistance to possession now works already from the Initiate  rank, not only from Master Cursed (fist fighter) : the “Blood Dominion”  skill is now learned at the Initiate  rank instead of Master Asmal has been slightly buffed – h

Another thing released today is also a cover of the music from Gothic 2 – City of Khorinis :)

You often ask about Archolos and when the new 2.0 update, also known as the Mod of the Decade Edition , will be released. I’ve been telling you all on streams that as soon as we know, I’ll post it here right away — and that in my opinion it would be in 2026. The authors have just broken the hour of silence with this video. We don’t know the exact date yet, but now we do know the year :)

🎅🎄 Merry Christmas As for the project, work is moving forward — slowly, but surely. There have been a few changes both within the team and within the project itself, but we’ll share the details in our next update. Our Nek is so busy that he didn’t even find the time to decorate the Christmas tree. We wish you all the best, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I’ve also added this plugin to the package. Thanks to it, you’ll be able to freely aim with magic, bows, and crossbows, just like in the New Balance mod or the Othello mod. You install the plugin the same way as other plugins — simply drop it into the data  folder inside your Gothic directory, and of course you need to have Union installed. This is a port of FreeAim Ninja  for Union. Plugins here – https://www.myrtana.net/union-pluginy

Introduction – Czech and English Hi, we finally have another mod translated — this time both into a new AI-assisted Czech translation and into English.The Czech version was done by me and Ladin15. There may still be some font (text) issues, but the Czech localization is on a much higher level than the older Google translation, and we’ve also moved to the latest version. Everything essential — such as dialogues, items, journal entries, and so on — is translated. The font issue

A few days ago I shared the Czech and English translations for Dark Secrets , and now I’m bringing you information about another upcoming update. That’s also why this translation is still provisional — quite a few things will change again. So, what awaits us? Changes to the world, tied to quest adjustments / new quests. New quests and NPCs. A completely reworked arena in the Old Camp. The addition of alchemy training, allowing the creation of permanent elixirs. Slightly rewor

Some new checks have been added in the error search window. Added a check for existing visuals (3D model files) when loading a location. If at least one object is found without a 3D model from the file, a warning will be displayed. Improved file name handling: spaces in visual names are now automatically removed when loading a location (except for Waypoints). This can be disabled by setting bFixBadNamesOnLoad = 0 in spacer_net.ini. When loading a location, incorrectly named 3

We present an updated concept art of Psionic. 😎This character was introduced by us at this year’s CD-Action Expo. Since then, it has undergone a significant transformation. The mask that once belonged to Psionic has gained a new, key role in the story and is now worn by the main antagonist of the entire narrative. The new antagonist character will be revealed soon. Psionic is the leader of the Cult of the Third Eye, a group of slaves fighting for freedom. Their only escape f

Hi, I’ve translated another article for you from our Polish colleagues at GothicUP .

Project AB/NB – Anniversary, 8 Years On December 14, it has been exactly 8 years since the start of development of the Alternative Balance project, which has continued under the name New Balance since 2020. It is a project and a modification that originated from the Returning 2.0 mod and was gradually improved into its current form by new authors such as Liker and Haart. New Balance is currently at version 6.0.32 (I usually list versions by date to make things clearer for reg

A full post with a detailed report and a clearer comparison of the bandit (guard) camp area in Jharkendar has been published on Boosty. Work is ongoing. I’d

Fixed a bug where the hero could not shoot with a bow or crossbow. The bug could appear randomly or persist permanently (it broke recently). Fixed a rare bug where a save game failed to load when trying to read data of a non-existent NPC. Fixed a bug – the Novice’s combat staff no longer grants Intelligence (this broke somewhere recently). Fixed a bug in the “Wrath of Beliar”  plugin – monsters will no longer spawn while the hero is sailing on a boat or completing druid quest

Hi. I’ve finally added this mod to the website in the Gothic 2 section, and it now has its own description, gallery, and download buttons leading to the official Steam and ModDB pages. I recommend downloading mods manually, here via ModDB, as some of you have experienced issues with the Steam version. Manual installation is hassle-free, and the versions of mods, localizations, and plugins on Steam are often outdated, so manual installation is recommended (this also applies to
