Witcher bigger then SKYRIM world. Now this is more epic then I initially anticipated.
Assuming that CDPR can actually deliver a wolrd that large with the same detail and quality as the much much smaller world of TW2 that would be a mind blowing spectacle indeed.I wonder if they can do it.

[h=1]The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt To Conclude The Series and The Legend of Geralt[/h]


Earlier this morning we brought you word that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an actual thing and that it will combine developer CD Projekt RED's trademark decision-based storytelling flair with a living open world "larger than any other in modern RPG history" when it arrives on PC and "high-end" platforms at some point in 2014. Well, CD Projekt RED has just issued official details surrounding the game, including the fact that it will be the final episode in the Witcher series from the studio and the last part of the legend of Geralt of Rivia.


In addition to the just-released teaser trailer above, here's an official description of the game followed by some rather lengthy insight from CD Projekt RED's Adam Badowski :

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is the final episode of the award-winning RPG series and the last part of the legend of Geralt of Rivia. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is the most robust and breathtaking game ever created by CD Projekt RED. Open world free-roaming exploration is an adventure in itself as the player will gallop through war-ravaged lands, sail misty waters and track down dangerous beasts for money. An improved combat system will allow players to feel like a real monster-hunter, a witcher who uses his superior senses and fighting skills to survive in a dark fantasy world–while he embarks on a quest to save his loved ones. The new core mechanics of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt immerse the player in the experience completely, with no Quick Time Events, only intuitive RPG gameplay.

“The captivating and nonlinear story of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt takes place in a rich, truly open world environment." said Adam Badowski, head of the studio."A world which is thrilling to explore, full of daring adventures, momentous quests, memorable characters, and unique monsters. Players will freely travel through woods, lakes, mountains, cities, and villages. Each region is inhabited by distinct populations with their own customs, legends and problems. The world of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is 30 times bigger than The Witcher 2."

“Imagine playing a dark fantasy game with the same great nonlinear story as in the previous Witcher titles, but now told in a world you can explore freely with no artificial boundaries." added Badowski. "The war-ravaged world is so huge that to reach further places you will need to ride a horse or sail a boat to get there. A world where your choices have truly epic consequences. From the development side, this goal is extremely demanding. Our team had to make significant design changes and our tech had to be rebuilt. But we believe that this will lead to a completely new level of nonlinearity and a whole new, richer gaming experience. As a gamer, I would love to play this kind of RPG and I think this is what many players are waiting for. This is our dream come true at CD Projekt RED, and we hope it will be the same for you!”

Badowski continued, "People may ask if this is really going to be the last Witcher game. Yes, it is. Why? Because we believe that we should end the series on a high note. Technology has progressed to where we can finally tell the story the way we want, with the visuals we want, in the world we imagined. This will be the ultimate fantasy RPG experience, and while we're hardly out of stories to tell, we believe it's time for us to look to new worlds and new horizons to keep pushing the boundaries of what we can create."


For all of those who have never experienced the adventures of Geralt before, this will be their last chance. The game will be accessible all players–those who are fans of the series and those who just love RPGs–thanks to availability on all major high-end platforms and an introduction designed to smoothly introduce all those who visit the world of the Witcher for the first time."
So, keep an eye out for more details and media surrounding The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, but in the meantime, hit up the comments and let us know what you're thinking about this proposed "crowing achievement" that will also be a somewhat sad conclusion to The Witcher series.

Re: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (2014, PC/NextGen) Announced! [New GameInformer details + magazine scans]

Why they choose 2014 for Witcher 3 :( thats too long for witcher fans. And also sad news about the witcher 3 being the last game of the series. I guess we will witness the death of geralt too in the last game. As the pics already showed an older witcher. So may be at the end of story he may be dead. Just like in Assassins Creed games main characters died.

They are from GameInformer. Don't know if in-game but apparently it is being called so.

If the screens are any indication, they can try cramming it on 360 like they did with Witcher 2. I don't see why not. The open world and scope of the world might prove to be challenging though, specially in term of seamlessly traveling between areas.

Needs to be posted again for the X360 gamers hoping for a port :p

CD Projekt RED has provided the screenshots you see here from its current in-game assets running on its Internal PC development hardware. However, the renderer - the part of the engine that translates the game files into what you ultimately see on screen - is still in development and will boast significant improvements by the time The Witcher 3 ships. "Right now you see the game in the old renderer, but it's going to be taken to a truly next level," says gameplay producer Marek ZSiemak. In particular, the developers tell us that skin shaders and the dynamic lighting model will be markedly more advanced in the final version.
I don't see why they wouldn't announce it for current gen consoles if they plan to release the game on them.

That doesn't equate to a generational leap at all :p

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!
