A New steam achievement

Hi The witcher forum, as I was browsing my steam achievements I discovered that, The Witcher 2 has a new achievement and that it is simple titled "locked" for now. What could this be? are we getting some new small dlc? or is it something to do with the steam summersale (new achievements for games are often introduced at the big steam sales, to win prizes and more)?
Anyone got a clue about this?

I don't KNOW anything about it, but, as you already said, the timing suggests that it has something to do with the Steam Summer Sale. That's what I'd bet on. I don't think that CDPR will surprise us with new DLC so shortly after 3.2 and I haven't heard of them adding any new achievements in DLC or EE (but tbh I didn't care, so might be I just missed it). On the other hand it isn't unusual for games that are part of special sale programs on Steam to add an achievement, e.g. to gain a ticket for a lottery.

No clue, but sounds like Steam business to me.

To be honest I think you are right, and it is some summer sale achievement and in that case it is most likely easy to optain, maby a arena achievement

Last year's Summer Sale achievements were mostly/all summer themed. So my guess is "Aaah, refreshing! - Have X opponents affected by frost bombs/traps simultaneously". If X is rather small (3 maybe), it isn't that hard to do, it can be done in Arena or Story mode and it's summer themed.

Agreed and that is exactly the kind of achievement I was thinking ^^

I think we should take that as a hint...

There's some deviltry afoot here.

mmmmm I hope that by May 2014 you may have prepared for us a good anniversary gift. Twenty years for a video game company are worthy of a Witchered surprise its own from CDP.

If you have it on Steam, get SAM and find out: http://gib.me/sam/

You misunderstood something, i think.

Do detail what too.

Maniacal laughing raises my hopes for something interesting.

Unlocking the achievement with SAM doesn't reveal what it stands for.

 

[Licaon_Kter]

Yet it will reveal a name for it, since no one mentioned that either?

I would Rather wait then cheat and I'm sure steam don't aprove the use of SAM.

Mass Effect 3 EC DLC and Skyrim DLC are both out next Tuesady 26th June. Could CDP be jumping on the band wagon?
