Thanks for the wishes guys! I feel so bad for getting here so late but I don't usually frequent hairy bear (maybe I should...)

It was a blast and thanks to all of you for remembering about it:)

1 year from now... I will be 30

Hello CDP! :) I've a strange question. Since it seems that Dark Edition will be only available on the X-box 360, isn't there any other way for pc players to get Geralt's Wolf Amulet? May I hope that you're going to sell it separately as a special "collector's object"?

Hi!

There are no current plans to sell the medallion as a separate item. We are not saying no in general, just not something we would do at this time.

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Dark Edition for Xbox 360 sold out in Europe



Over one month before its premiere on the 17th of April, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Dark Edition has already been sold out in pre-orders in Europe. The Dark Edition of the game is the richest version of the award-winning RPG for Xbox 360.

CD Projekt RED studio has prepared a larger stock of this edition for their fans in Poland. That’s why The Witcher’s homeland remains the last European country, where the Dark Edition is still available.

“We are really pleased, that the Dark Edition was so well received by gamers. We’re half way from the beginning of the pre-orders to the premiere and already European gamers have bought all of the Dark Edition copies. You can still buy the Enhanced Edition of the game, which is more than a standard edition of an Xbox game containing the game, official soundtrack, quest handbook and world map.” – said Michał Nowakowski , member of CD Projekt RED’s board.

The Dark Edition of the game also contains an exclusive artbook, an additional making of DVD, a wolf-head Witcher medallion, 3 stickers - all wrapped up in an beautiful box with an wolf head 3D print relief. You can watch the whole unboxing of the game here.

Feel free to use and share them as you like. We hope you enjoy them!
 
Hi guys,

Just to clear things up, this particular material comes from the PC version, it was released to the media to show the new content that will be available for both platforms (please keep in mind that Enhanced Edition will be released for both Xbox 360 as well as PC). We never said this footage was taken from an Xbox 360 console. However I can assure you that The Witcher 2 looks absolutely stunning on Xbox 360. I'm a long-time 360 gamer myself and can vouch for its highest graphics standards.
 
A fan-made trailer



Beautiful & Deadly is a name of a fan-made trailer that has recently surfaced online and caught attention of many people, including us – CDP RED employees. It’s truly a fine piece of fan-art and it sparked an idea in our heads.

How about we offer a surprise gift for the next person who creates such an epic trailer? Please keep in mind that it’s not a competition – just a friendly request to our fans. Your efforts however will not go without appreciation.
