Nobody gets out of the barrier. But today, you can get in.
The Gamefound campaign for Gothic – A Shadow’s Quest is officially live, bringing the world of the influential RPG Gothic to the tabletop for the first time in an adventure built around choices, combat, exploration, and a whole lot of danger.
Set in the infamous Old Camp, players take on the role of a Shadow or Fire Mage Novice trying to make a name for themselves in the colony. You can play solo, team up with up to three friends, or add an optional Game Master to run the adventure.
And there’s plenty of room to build your character your way. Master the sword, wield powerful magic, or stay at a distance with a bow. Your decisions can also change the game world as the campaign unfolds.
Pick Your Edition
There are several ways to enter the colony:
- Standard Edition – €80: The complete game at the most accessible price point.
- Deluxe Edition – €110: Includes upgraded acrylic figures and improved inserts.
- Ultimate Edition – €199: Includes the full Miniature Pack with 107 miniatures.
- All-In Edition – €249: The Ultimate Edition plus available extras, including a dice tray and 10 exclusive dice.

The game is being developed by THQ Nordic’s Board Game division, the team behind Darksiders – The Forbidden Land, with creative input from the developers of the upcoming Gothic 1 Remake to help capture the atmosphere and feel of the original game.
One important detail: this isn’t coming to retail. The Gamefound campaign is the only way to get Gothic – A Shadow’s Quest.
The campaign runs through October 23, 2026, at 15:00 CEST.
If you’re ready to enter the colony, the barrier is waiting.
