THQ Nordic just had this wild 2025 Showcase, throwing out details on some upcoming games like Tides of Tomorrow and even a Gothic 1 Remake. Oh, and SpongeBob fans, you’re in for a treat too. Buckle up, here’s what went down.
So, Tarsier, the folks behind Little Nightmares (remember those creepy feels?), are doing this new horror trip called Reanimal. It’s a wild ride with orphaned siblings and creepy monsters—imagine playing that online with friends, just sharing the spooks like it’s no biggie. Anyway—wait, right, moving on.
Oh man, SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide is on its way too. You can pre-order it now, and it’s dropping on PS5 this November 18th. You get to swap between SpongeBob and Patrick to tunes by, get this, David Hasselhoff. No clue why they went with Hasselhoff, but hey, sounds like fun right? And there’s this Natural Costume DLC for pre-orders—grab it if you’re feeling fancy. There’s also some Ghostly Digital Edition with a Tidal Season pass if you’re really into it.
Now, let’s talk about Gothic. They’re remaking Gothic 1, which is sort of a big deal for RPG lovers. This thing is handcrafted passion by Alkimia Interactive, and it’s got expansions that veterans will drool over. Dive into the Gothic 1 Remake demo and get a taste—no spoilers, trust me. It’s like a superfans dream. They’re also re-releasing Gothic classics on PS5 in 2026. So, hold onto your controllers, folks.
Then there’s The Eternal Life of Goldman. This trailer… it’s something else. Seems Goldman’s got a knack for making things, well, complicated. It’s this platformer where exploration takes the front seat and the game world’s just begging for you to dive in. Complex, dark, yet inviting. I had goosebumps.
Digixart showed off this game called Tides of Tomorrow. It’s this mix of story and gameplay in a post-apocalyptic scene where your choices shape the universe. Feels like you hold the whole world in your hands, like no pressure or anything, right?
Wreckfest is back and crazier than ever. If you’re itching to demolish and zoom around, the sequel’s on its way. It’s got that real smash-and-crash feel only a demolition derby can bring. Racing to PS5 in 2026, so get revved up.
Titan Quest II is coming too. It’s this mash of mythology, combat, and customization. Think ancient Greece meets deep character design. You get to mix masteries and face gods—no big deal, just an epic adventure waiting to unfold.
And for arcade racing junkies, there’s Wreckreation. Imagine customizing everything: cars, tracks, the sky… ever thought about racing over a dino’s noggin? Because now you can. No idea who dreamt that up, but thanks. Coming to PS5 later this year, it’s packed with stunts and all sorts of nonsense you can share with pals.
PlayStation seems to be setting up a solid lineup with something for everyone. Can’t wait to see ya’ll at Gamescom and get our hands on these!
