CD Projekt has had great success with the first two games in its Witcher series of fantasy RPGs. Today, the company announced it will release The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which the developer claims will be the final game in the series.
The official press release for the game says that The Witcher 3 will take place in a vast open world that CD Projekt claims will be larger than any other modern RPG in history. It adds:
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 game will be released in 2014 for "all high-end platforms" This would seem to suggest that the game will not only launch for the PC but also for next-gen game consoles that have yet to be officially announced.
