Risen is Coming to PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch
The classic (and difficult) RPG is coming to several modern platforms.
THQ Nordic says that the classic RPG Risen is coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on January 24, 2023.

The Risen titles are essentially the spiritual successor to the equally difficult Gothic franchise.
