CD Projekt Red are planning to show off new Witcher gameplay footage tonight, as the retail edition box contents are leaked.
Come back to this article tonight at 7pm and developer CD Projekt Red will have a ton of new The Witcher 3 info to share with you, including a brand new trailer.
The contents of the trailer are currently a closely guarded secret, but what has been announced in advance is board game tie-in The Witcher: Adventure Game and a promise to reveal the contents of the game’s Collector’s Edition.
Details of the standard edition though have already leaked out, via MCV and Videogamer, and as you can see below it already contains quite a few extras, including a soundtrack CD, map, stickers, and universe compendium.
Which suggest that the Collector’s Edition really should be something special.
Also expected to be revealed is news about the future of retro PC download service GOG.com (Good Old Games), which is owned by the same company.
‘If you think you’ve seen it all, we hope we’ll make you think again,” said co-founder Marcin Iwiński. ‘This year’s conference is going to be really special, as we’ll be unveiling details about the much anticipated Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and its Collector’s Edition, and also taking a look at how what you love about GOG.com can be made even better’.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is due out on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC in February 2015.
The previous game has also been in the news lately, after it was given to Barack Obama as a present by the Polish prime minister (CD Projket Red are Polish):
‘The last time I was here, Donald (Polish prime minister) gave me a gift, the video game developed here in Poland that’s won fans the world over, The Witcher,’ said Obama, in what is definitely the first time we’ve quoted him in a story about a video game.
‘I confess, I’m not very good at video games, but I’ve been told that it is a great example of Poland’s place in the new global economy. And it’s a tribute to the talents and work ethic of the Polish people as well as the wise stewardship of Polish leaders like prime minister Tusk’
