GAME DESCRIPTION
----------------
The award-winning PC RPG comes to Xbox 360!
The player is Geralt of Rivia, a professional monster slayer, a
witcher. Entangled in the political turmoil that engulfed
Temeria, Geralt helped quell the rebellion of the Order of the
Flaming Rose. Soon after, he saved King Foltest’s life when the
monarch was attacked by a witcher-like assassin. He continues to
protect the king, serving as his bodyguard as Foltest strives to
bring peace to his kingdom. The Order’s last bastions have
yielded to the royal army, yet one more task remains - the
Baroness La Valette announced her secession from the realm, and
her fortress must be taken. A month after the attempted
assassination, Foltest’s armies stand at the gates of La Valette
Castle, preparing for a final assault. Still at Foltest’s side,
Geralt is among them, unable to begin his personal quest to
discover the mysterious assassin’s origin and identity…

KEY FEATURES
------------
* A truly epic, intense, emotionally charged adventure with
non-linear game narration. Three independent plot lines with
several alternative events are dependent on the player’s choices
and lead to multiple different game endings and several
additional plot forks. This time gameplay time will be shorter
than The Witcher 1, but more intense and packed with events.
* A complex, realistic and mature story touching upon subject
matter seldom seen in other RPGs, told in a manner that is
understandable and attractive to contemporary gamers. We
investigate the assassinations of the rulers of the Northern
Kingdoms and follow Geralt’s personal theme, in which he’s
looking for his own identity. Gradually we learn how powerful
forces influence our situation and what role they order us to
play.
* Rich, mature dialogue as found in Andrzej Sapkowski’s book
series and The Witcher 1, presented in highly filmic cutscenes
and dialogues sequences, thanks to a new game engine.
* New, improved system of flashbacks. Now the reminiscences of
Geralt, in which we observe the link between our past choices
with current actions, are realistically and smoothly woven into
the gameplay.
* Sex and eroticism will be introduced in a much more realistic,
involving and mature way, thanks to which sexual relationships
are presented more credibly than in TW1.
* Unique, deep, consistent and rich game world established in a
series of best-selling books by A. Sapkowski and recreated in the
game to provide an incredible, believable story-driven
experience.
* Believable, true-to-life characters with their own motivations
and goals. During our journey we meet ordinary men, soldiers,
rebels, powerful mages, rulers and their assassins. Depending on
our decisions we meet different game characters, and our
relationships shape further actions in the game.
* Highly varied, breathtaking locations, which thanks to the new
engine create a cohesive, fully accessible world!
* Rich, living world in which every character has their own way
of life and unique occupations. Our actions modify the
relationship with the game-world population and, in the case of
the main plot line, open or close the possibilities of
interaction with the game world.
* Greater freedom of exploration to provide increased game
realism and a wider range of new options. Geralt will
sur barriers, jump over fences, scale walls and ascend rock
formations.
* A beautiful new graphic Red Engine based on State-of-the-Art ,
ultramodern technology created by CD Projekt RED.
