Some Xbox news/leaks of the lighter variety. Microsoft just published their monthly update for June on Xbox Wire summarizing announced features and additions to Xbox platforms, including the previously announced Aggregated Gaming Library allowing view your games from multiple stores on the Xbox PC app, some customization features on the Series X/S dashboard, and the addition of Game Hubs.

Towards the end of the article they list their lineup of available and upcoming titles to be supported as part of their 'Stream Your Own Game' lineup which allows you to remotely play Xbox games outside those available on Game Pass Ultimate, and among the 17 games listed under 'Coming Soon', is Gothic Classic. While the remake of the original Gothic has already been confirmed for current gen consoles and PC, the remaster of Gothic 1 is currently not available on any platforms outside PC (Steam) and Nintendo Switch, the latter of which got the game in 2023. Gothic Classic at present is not confirmed for other consoles, suggesting that MS might've let slip that at least Gothic Classic if not also Gothic II Complete Classic (also currently on Switch) will be coming to Xbox Series X/S and/or the Xbox PC Store at some point in the future. Publisher THQNordic has not commented on this at all yet.

EDIT: There's the THQ Showcase happening at the start of August as well. High likelihood this is intended to be announced there. Wouldn't be surprised if it comes to PS5 either on that day too
 
Isn't there already a Switch collection of Gothic 1 & 2? I'm surprised it took this long to port to the other consoles.
