Downloading The Witcher 2

Hello,

I have bought The Witcher 2 through amazon a while back,*I just moved and lost the CD of the game and formatted my computer. I have a backup of my CD Key and the game is registered to my name, is there anyway I can download the game? I own the enhanced edition and as I have said, it is regiestered to my account. I know I can get a copy from torrent and just use my own CD key on it, but wanted to go the right way instead if possible :)

Thank you

Thank you very much :)

By the way, what I bought is the enhanced edition, they only have the regular witcher 2, will I get the enhanced edition while it patches? or will I only get the regular version this way?

@nbaidoun : GOG sells the enhanced edition - that's the most up to date version. They don't have older "regular" edition actually. You shouldn't need any patches for it, besides may be removing .NET patch if you plan running it in Wine.

Enhanced Edition was a free upgrade for the game, the one on GOG is Enhanced and any copy of the game running on the latest patches(3.3 or 3.4/3.4.1) is Enhanced.

It's clearly enhanced edition. I'm not sure why they don't mention it in the title. Even package itself has _ee_ in it.

Actually, the detailed description mentions it:

What's New in the Enhanced Edition:
  • Professional mod tool - REDkit beta: The REDkit is the best way to craft vast, living worlds – shape environments using intuitive tools and adapt them to your needs! Create your own RPG adventures and do it CD Projekt RED style!
  • Additional hours of gameplay: New major adventures set in previously unseen locations, expanding the story and introducing new characters, mysteries and monsters.
  • New Game Introduction and Cinematics: All new animations and cut scenes, including a new, three and a half minute pre-rendered cinematic depicting the assassination of King Demavend of Aedirn. BAFTA Award winner and Academy Award nominee Tomasz Baginski brings this key historical event to life, setting the stage for the story told in The Witcher 2.

@nbaidoun: Also note that GOG is owned by the same company which develops Witcher games. So they also provide a lot of bonus materials with the game.

Yeah I saw that I am getting a lot of bonus material, but didn't know it was owned by the same company. I have bought a few classics off of GOG before, I only play RPGs so it's a great place to check out games :)

That's basically the reason why you can get the digital version if you already own the physical one :). So when you buy on GOG you also support their development and DRM-free distribution.
