CD PROJEKT RED and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt at gamescom 2014 wrap up. New gameplay video released!

This year’s gamescom is over and, as always, it was a blast. We would like to thank each and every one of you for attending and being with us during the show--we love to talk, and the possibility to hear you out in person remains one of the most important elements in shaping the unforgettable experience that is The Witcher. As always, we have some post-expo numbers to share with you:

- We have been visited by a whopping fifteen thousand fans who came to see the demo of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
- Our booths were visited by more than than one thousand journalists
- We gave away twelve thousand t-shirts

And, since we want to finish this year’s show with a bang, we’ve got a 35-minute gameplay demo of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for you. You can watch it here.


Time to get back to work! Thank you for an amazing time and see you next year!

So.... will anyone be posting during the next 35 minutes?

 

[AutumnalWanderer]

Hoooly sh*t, the map is HUGE :O

So.... will anyone be posting during the next 35 minutes?

Yes, cause I'm dual screening right now.

Thanks you CDPR, this is an awesome treat for today!

And to put it here as well, just because it's my immediate reaction to the video.

EDIT:
Holy crap! Ciri! Moving! Words! Something!

*calms down* I was so hoping to hear her say something, but moans and groans will do for now. I'd joke that the reason she is stumbling around at first is because she is so uncomfortable in her heels.

I must say, her scar looked deeper in that last part than people have gotten the impression from in the other media of her.

The ladies look great and those who thought the voice acting didn't fit will have to revisit that.

For roughly 5 months of polish time left, this is looking to be amazing.

the tits witch is my new fantasy crush

 

[Vigilance.492]

Underwater Swimming looks fantastic - hopefully it controls as well as it looks.

Man, everything just looks so amazing. Fuck.

Optimize the shit out of this, tighten up some of those animations, collisions etc and if the rest of the game is as amazing as this demo, it's going to be fucking brilliant.

 

[Sharpy47]

Amazing. @Marcin Momot - Will we be able to download the Uncompressed 1080p video, please?

 

[Darkhollow]

Thank you for showing us this demo!

PS: How do you post gifs here?

 

[EmperorZorn]

I'm watching the last two minutes for the 10th time and I don't regret it.

 

[krispa91]

Thank you so much! :yes:
Waiting for Gamersyde version now. :comeatmebro:

 

[Damariel]

Thank you for showing us this demo!

PS: How do you post gifs here?

Good demo... but this cliffhanger at the end is evil.

 

[Darkhollow]

Now for that Gamersyde 1080p 60 video..

Also, why isn't it February yet? @.@

 

[moonknightgog]

Give me this video in direct feed.

 

[shinobi2u]

Thank you for showing us this demo!

PS: How do you post gifs here?

Click View attachment 5411, go to insert URL, put in the image's web address, uncheck the box, press ok. Viola!

I'm watching the last two minutes for the 10th time and I don't regret it.

Again! Again!

Can't wait for the full size video to watch that part over and over some more.

 

[EmperorZorn]

Thank you for this video, dear REDs ~

It brought back the memory of an amazing presentation narrated by @GingerEffect .
But during that very same presentation I missed the ability to pause and rewind, especially in the last two minutes.

Time to take in every frame of Ciri I get.

 

[jerf.674]

Awesome, just awesome!

--------------

On a side note, is it just me, or something is wrong with the video encoding quality, for the second time in a row (counting also the Downwarren trailer)?
Even in 1080p the video looks quite blurry. For instance, the Youtube version of the Sword of Destiny trailer looked much better.

Maybe we should ask @Marcin Momot to check (or ask the people responsible for this to check) whether everything is correct with the setup of uploading videos?
Lots of people on Neogaf also complain about the same issue.

 

[wichat]

Once again?!?!?

I moved my mouse and typed my KB but Geralt didn't walked as I wanted.. What sort of game is that?


Ouch!... It's true.... it's only a gameplay demo pre-recorded....


CDPR

I WANNA PLAY IT NOW!!!!!!
