Piranha Bytes’ upcoming science fantasy-themed action role-playing game, Elex 3, may have been canceled, and the studio possibly closed down.

Absolute shite news tbh, even if I wasn’t a fan of anything after Risen 1 it still sucks to see them go.

    oh no :(

    As a german this is really hitting me. One of the last “legendary” game developers here, with a very particular style and history. Gothic was also one of the first games I have ever played which got me into the hobby.

      Yeah, the Gothic series was, and still is one of my favorite game series ever made.
