THQ Nordic has officially confirmed the return of its annual Digital Showcase, set to air globally on Friday, August 1st, 2025. The event will be streamed live at 12:00 PM PDT / 3:00 PM EDT / 8:00 PM BST / 21:00 CEST / 10:00 PM EEST through YouTube, Twitch, and Steam, offering fans a comprehensive look at the publisher’s upcoming slate.
THQ Nordic promises updates on already announced titles, new release dates, and world premiere reveals during the show. The publisher has already confirmed several exciting games will be featured, each representing a different genre and development studio under its umbrella.
Confirmed Titles for the 2025 Showcase
🔹 Gothic 1 Remake
In development since early 2020 at Alkimia Interactive, the Gothic 1 Remake is shaping up to be a faithful yet expanded reimagining of the cult RPG classic. According to developers at Gamescom 2024, the remake will feature approximately 10 hours of additional content over the original. A new community-driven demo was launched last month, incorporating fan feedback and optimizing mechanics and visuals.
🔹 Titan Quest II
Grimlore Games' highly anticipated hack-and-slash sequel has seen its early access launch delayed to Summer 2025. Expectations are high for a specific release date announcement during the showcase, especially as Titan Quest II is one of THQ Nordic's most ambitious ARPGs in years.
🔹 REANIMAL
Developed by Tarsier Studios, known for Little Nightmares, REANIMAL delves deeper into psychological horror. Players will embody a brother and sister duo, navigating a mysterious island by land and sea in search of their missing friends. Described as a darker, more intense narrative experience, the game mixes puzzle-solving and exploration in a harrowing journey of survival and revelation.
🔹 The Eternal Life of Goldman
From Weappy Studio, this title takes a different direction as a narrative-rich platforming adventure. Although details remain sparse, its presence at the showcase suggests deeper story reveals or a new gameplay trailer.
🔹 Wreckfest 2
Bugbear's car-crashing, chaos-fueled sequel entered early access in March 2025, with a full release not expected until at least March 2026. THQ Nordic is likely to outline a major update or roadmap for the title, showcasing improvements and new content.
With multiple titles spanning RPGs, horror, adventure, and vehicular combat, the THQ Nordic Digital Showcase 2025 is shaping up to be a robust mid-year highlight. Whether you’re a fan of the Gothic series' gritty atmosphere or looking forward to psychological thrills from REANIMAL, this event promises a wide variety of content—and perhaps a few unexpected premieres.
