We’re happy to announce The Witcher: Old World — a new board game set in the world of The Witcher, created in cooperation with GO ON BOARD publishing company and designed by Łukasz Woźniak, author of board games such as Valhalla and Titans.

The Witcher: Old World is intended for 2-5 people and takes place long before times of Geralt of Rivia. Players take on a role of professional monster slayers who recently completed their brutal training in one of the witcher schools: School of Wolf, Viper, Cat, Bear or Griffin. On their adventures across the Continent, young witchers will face difficult choices, take on contracts, battle monsters — and perhaps find themselves brawling with another witcher in order to defend their school’s honor!

The game’s crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter will begin in May 2021 and will offer the community a chance to have a significant impact on the contents of the game, as well as the stories it features. The Witcher: Old World is currently scheduled to be released in April 2022. At this point, the game is planned to be released in English and Polish, but other language versions are being negotiated.

To keep up to date on progress in the game’s development, follow the game on Kickstarter and visit GO ON BOARD’s Facebook, Instagram and YouTube channel.

Hey guys, the original article has been updated, sorry for any confusion.

good afternoon, I have the full version of the game but without the Pt Br language and now with the version without the dlc I saw you have to download, but it does not work in the full version. Is there any way to do dat right? Thanks

PT-BR has only been added to the base version and expansions (separate), there's no plan on adding additional language packs to Complete Edition.

I already have the digital version of the Complete Edition in the U.S. eshop， but when I try to download the base game there is no 100% discount.

The discount has been delayed in Americas, it will be available from February 7th

How do we claim that we have The Witcher 3 Complete Edition in physical, the free digital version and expansions of the base game?

Sorry for the confusion, the 100% discount applies to digital only.

Hello, I have a similar question about this, who should contact with?

Rules for using assets from our games while creating own content are listed here: https://cdprojektred.com/en/fan-content

In this case, since I believe you're interested in using our assets as part of a mod for a game that isn't ours, you're probably most interested in these points:

Section 2, point c:

Don’t put it in other games/products. Your fan content should stand on its own – it should not be incorporated into a third-party game or product (except as we explain below).

Section 3, point c:

Mods. We’re happy for you to make mods for our games (i.e. software that modifies or works with our games – e.g. changing the UI or adding new mechanics) so long as it doesn’t breach the relevant game’s EULA (e.g. no cheating – this is especially important for GWENT!). If you want to make a mod for another game or service using our content, or make the mod a standalone product, ask us in advance via legal@cdprojektred.com (we just don’t want the next Soulkiller virus).

Feel free to send me a PM in case of further questions!

Updated on February 4th, 2021

Starting today (January 28th) gamers around the world are able to buy The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for Nintendo Switch either as a Complete Edition containing the base game, both expansions and all free DLCs, or separately.

We decided to change the way we sell the game to allow everyone more flexibility. For the time being both versions will be available in Nintendo eShop but ultimately the Complete Edition will be withdrawn and replaced with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — Hearts of Stone and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — Blood and Wine as separate products.

Don’t worry, even after the Complete Edition is removed from eShop, you will be able to get the full set for the same price as before — in the near future we'll introduce a bundle containing all products. In addition, everyone who already owns the Complete Edition will keep it, and, to ensure that no one buys the game for the second time by accident, every owner of the digital version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Complete Edition will receive a 100% discount on the base game and expansions in Nintendo eShop. The discount will be active in all regions from January 28th, 2021, with the exception of South & North Americas, where the discount will start working on February 7th, 2021.

Here’s a short FAQ:

Q: Will cross saves between Switch and PC still work?

A: Yes, cross saves will continue to work. Keep in mind that you need to have the same content both on the Switch and PC version for your saves to work.

For example, if you have the Game of the Year edition on PC you'll need to have the base game, expansions, and all free DLCs on Switch to fully use the cross saving feature. Likewise, you won't be able to use saves from the Game of the Year edition for PC if you only have the base game on Switch.

Q: What will happen to my physical version?

A: Players who purchased the Complete Edition game card will be able to play their version of the game just like before.

Q: If I delete the Complete Edition, will I still be able to download it again after it leaves the store?

A: Yes, if you already own the Complete Edition and decide to delete it, you'll be able to re-download the game even after it’s removed from the Nintendo eShop.

Q: Will my save files from the Complete Edition work on the base game and expansions?

A: Not directly, but you can make them work by first transferring them from Switch to PC and then back to Nintendo Switch.

Today The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales on Nintendo Switch received updates!

The Witcher 3 update focuses on fixing Simplified Chinese localization and issues with transferring cloud saves from PC, while the Thronebreaker update introduces save transfer between Switch and PC (GOG.COM and Steam). This means you can continue Queen Meve’s adventure on the go!

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt update 3.7 list of changes:

• Updated fonts and localisation for Simplified Chinese
• Fixed an issue with multiple file transfers to/from Steam and GOG.COM cloud saves service, which resulted in blocked progress
• Numerous bugfixes
• Overall stability improvements

Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales update 1.0.2 list of changes:

• Implemented a Cloud Save system allowing you to transfer saves from Steam and GOG.COM
• Various minor bugfixes and stability improvements

Really nice progress every time! I also have to say apart from the mod being great, I just like watching these videos. They're very calming in a way

 

[Benzenzimmern]

This looks very promising! I'm looking forward to your next updates! The roughly 10000 polyons on Aerondight and Geralt's whole Witcher 1 model put things into perspective.

 

[Alicja.]

Regarding DLSS, we're looking into the possibility but it's too early to say for sure

 

[Alicja.]

Let me answer some questions that came up here.

This works with all versions of the game, physical and digital, standard and complete edition (aka. Game of the Year). You will receive the upgrade for the version of the game you own. If you only own the base game, without the expansions, you will receive the base game, not the complete edition. If you own the game on the physical disc, you will have to insert it to the console to play it.

This update is not dedicated to fixing existing bugs or adding new content, but to upgrading the current-gen version of the game when it is being played on the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 hardware. That means, among others, 4K, ray-tracing and faster lading times on next-gen consoles as well as ray-tracing and HDR for PC.

The update won’t change the game’s minimum requirements for PC, but in order to fully take advantage of it you, of course, need to have the appropriate hardware.

 

[Alicja.]

We’re working on the next generation edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt!

Developed to take advantage of the most powerful gaming hardware, the next-gen edition of the game will feature a range of visual and technical improvements — including ray tracing and faster loading times — across the base game, both expansions, and all extra content.

The next generation edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will release as a standalone purchase for PC, Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, as well as a free update for everyone who already owns the game on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

We’re happy to announce The Witcher: Monster Slayer — a free-to-play, augmented-reality, location-based RPG for iOS and Android developed and published by Spokko, member of the CD PROJEKT Family!

Monsters are freely roaming the land in great numbers, and the relatively new role of “witcher” has become indispensable around the Continent. The world will not hear of Geralt of Rivia for hundreds more years. You need to take up the mantle, become an elite monster slayer and rid the world of foul beasts.

The game, featuring console-grade visuals, challenges you to explore the world around you while tracking, studying, and fighting monsters. You can use time of day and real-life weather conditions to your advantage, but most importantly, always come to the fight prepared! In order to defeat tougher enemies you can brew powerful potions and oils, craft bombs and monster bait as well as upgrade your character’s skills and equipment.

In addition to first-person AR combat the game also contains rich, story-driven quests that will take you on full-fledged adventures on your way to becoming a professional monster slayer.

The Witcher: Monster Slayer is coming to iOS and Android soon! To be up-to-date follow the game on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube, and visit the official The Witcher: Monster Slayer website.

Masquerade — the latest story mod for The Witcher game created by eLeR Creative Group — has been translated to English! The adventure can be downloaded from moddb website.

The eLeR Creative group decided to reactivate a project started by the Ifrit Creative Group, whose adventures "The Wedding" and "Merry Witchmas" can be found in the official edition of The Witcher game available on GOG.com.
