World of Gothic (http://www.worldofgothic.com/) has a rumor that Gothic 2 Gold in English will be released 0ct 24, along with a few other Jowood games:

In North America the release date for SpellForce Platinum, Gothic 2 Gold (will presumably contain Gothic 2 + addon, for € 19,99), Silent Storm Gold and The Guild Gold has been anounced to be Octobre 24th 2005 and according to reports will be published by Aspry Media. An official announcement is still due.
I know Everlost and Liquidize have posted that it was coming but I don't recall seeing a date. I don't see it in any of the pre-orders yet... Hopefully this is true, but I will not be holding my breath.

4 CDs then? GothicII was 3. I wouldn't mind buying it again if the whole thing comes on one DVD.

I assume the expansion increases the actual size of Gothic's free-roaming game world? It's a great game, I wish I could play more but I just don't have the time to marathon it.

I need to get myself back into Gothic 2. I played it for a couple of hours, and then never got back to it. Still installed, ready to go, just no time.

Gothic 2 kicked ass. The only game in the last two years that I've played all the way through.

I'll definitely pick this up if it includes the expansion. I can't really see them just releasing Gothic 2 again without the addon.

hmm.. I played through Gothic2 and loved it. Still I spent a significant amount of time shooting fireballs at the incredible tough Orc Elites trying to cheat the AI. It was the only way to get further ahead.
Was fun one time but a second time?
I just don't know if the extra content really is worth the hazzle.
I also heard the expansion made things even tougher. Hm... I'll probably buy it just to support Gothic3.

I also exploited a bug to kill the orcs - I found a place where they got stuck on the environment, and I slaughtered them. Helped me level up pretty fast.

I want to play through the game again as a magic user, so this release of the expansion gives me the perfect opportunity for doing just that.
