Robert Purchese: Why Gothic dev Piranha dumped JoWooD - And what happens next for the Gothic IP. In: Eurogamer. 5. Mai 2011, abgerufen am 17. Dezember 2012 (englisch): „Currently, JoWooD has no more rights on developing any further Gothic titles, so the rights are back - they will be back I think next year. I don't have the contract here. Very soon the contract runs out and we will get the rights back. And we knew that from the start.“
