Deep Silver has revealed that the follow up to 2009′s poorly-received Risen will be getting a sequel very soon, and that it’s theme will be largely “pirate-based”.
Neil writes "It's Tuesday and that means the Xbox Live Deals With Gold and Spotlight sale is rocking and rolling once more. Want to check out the discounts available to Xbox One and Xbox 360 gamers between the 20th-26th Sept 2016?"
he Gothic series has a cult-like following in several European countries, including Germany and Poland. Its worshippers can also be found among the hardcore RPG supporters worldwide. Is there a chance for a comeback?
Neil writes "The latest Xbox Live Deals With Gold are now live and with them come a few tasty bargains from Square Enix with deals for both Xbox One and Xbox 360 owners."
Maybe it is just me but MGSV is not on the store. I have looked in every category and even searched with no luck.
Nope, says oops
@below
Not in GmG for me only Angry birds and TF
Yep, it's definitely there. Both on the games store online and on my console in the Games With Gold bit.
Same there here Lawson, can't find it and that link doesn't work. As long as it's there payday I'll be happy!
Well I bought it used at GS with plans to return it after I seen what cause of all the complaints were about
Anyways I personally would not play it until MGSV is about to come out. It pretty much feels like a glorified demo that makes you want more next gen MGS
Yes it is a very good initial installment for TPP. There are a multitude of things to do. Invest.
Well MGS V being £12 has now got me sold just bought it keep the deals like this coming MS loving gold on Xbox one so far.
''poorly-received Risen''
On the 360, yes. It was a total hit for PC
"poorly-received" LOL nice "research". The PC version reviewed pretty well and has a 77 on MetaCrtic, the 360 version did ok and has a 60.

Both of these scores are FAR from "poor", we do live in a world where games have MC ratings below 40 after all...
I enjoyed it, but I am a PC gamer. As to how well it did on Xbox... Games like Risen usually don't do all that well on consoles. They are more PC centered experiences and appeal to PC tastes.
Also, most console gamers are used to a certain formula and when a game doesn't fit that formula exactly, they have trouble acclimating. Not to mention that it's a European developer, so there is a different design sensibility - Just look at the STALKER (Russian/Eastern European) series for an example or Two Worlds.
Not every game is going to be like Final Fantasy (which is an Eastern design sensibility) or Halo or Killzone (a European take on an American created genre) or even a Elder Scrolls game (which are themselves different now than when they were just on PC).
Oh hell yes! Needed an open-world pirate game since... forever! Officially excited about this.
Cool, I loved the first one.
