ARCANIA: GOTHIC IV 4 (XBOX 360 X360)

The hero of the Gothic saga fulfilled his destiny and became King Robar III. Once he recklessly agreed to deliver a strange amulet to a blind woman, and from that moment his soul became corrupted. Now all the old hero can think about is power and conquest - but not for long, as a new hero has risen elsewhere...

ArcaniA: Gothic 4 is the successor to Gothic 3 and is based on the stories of the previous games, but does not continue it. This is a single-player role-playing game with a "back to basics" approach and features that have been slimmed down.

Set a decade later than the previous game, players take on the role of a new hero whose motivation and goal is to destroy the forces that slaughtered his loved ones.

Unlike other games in the Gothic series, the world map here is much smaller. Although each location can be fully explored, once at a new location there is no returning to a previous area. The plot is linear. Through the questline, the storyline progresses as each objective is achieved, eliminating the guesswork. There are no guilds or factions to align with, and no in-game morality code, so the player doesn't have to worry about being thrown in jail for opening the wrong chest , stole an item or killed someone. Additionally, there is no cap on the amount of inventory items that can be transported.
