    The week of The Witcher
    April 19, 7:10 PM

    CD Projekt sends word that we should keep a keen eye out for info relating to The Witcher.

    Get ready for a full week of new assets and info about CD Projekt’s upcoming role-playing game, The Witcher. Starting today, be sure to watch http://www.TheWitcher.com for daily updates, including new screenshots, videos and more.

    Scheduled for release in Spring 2007, The Witcher puts players in the role of the mysterious and legendary Geralt of Rivia, the most prominent of witchers, a brotherhood of mercenary monster-slayers. Players will embark on an enthralling journey set in the vivid universe created by multi-million-selling author Andrzej Sapkowski; a world in which the lines of good and evil are virtually non-existent. With more than 250 abilities to select, The Witcher features extensive character customization, further enhancing the intense real-time tactical combat system which -- coupled with the engaging story based on Sapkowski's books -- creates a refreshing modern take on the traditional role-playing genre.
