Gothic II is a 2002 RPG and the sequel to Gothic. It was later followed by the Gothic II: Night of the Raven expansion pack, and was also part of the compilations Gothic II Gold Edition and Gothic Collector's Edition. The game plays similarly to the original, with the player again seeking to join one of three factions in order to speak with the leader and help avert the coming danger.
The destruction of the Barrier around the Colony in the original game ended the prisoners' plight but made things in the outside world even worse. The feeling convicts caused havoc in the nearby city of Khorinis, and the Colony has been occupied by an evil army bent on the destruction of the human race.
