ok. a friend of mine wrote to me telling me of this post on jowood forums. it was posted by vossi, admin to the forum. i don't know how official it is but, bonsidering it came from an admin, i don't think he can post things like that wothout permision!
here's what he said:
"Gothic 2 and the Addon, Night of the Raven, will be released in the few weeks in UK. (release date tba)
Gothic 3 will be announced in the beginning of may at the E3."
for the unbelievers, such as myself, here's the link:
