The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a story-driven next-generation open world role-playing game, set in a graphically stunning fantasy universe, full of meaningful choices and impactful consequences. The world burns as the Empire of Nilfgaard pierces through the heart of the kingdoms in the north. Geralt of Rivia is pursued by an enemy devoid of mercy--the Wild Hunt, a mythical cavalcade of ghastly riders, harbingers of doom and destruction, capable of destroying entire settlements overnight. Driven by a deeply personal agenda, Geralt must navigate a maze of hostile forces to find and protect the one described in an ancient prophecy.

Upcoming Expansions

Hearts of Stone will take Geralt on an all-new 10-hour adventure into the wilds of No Man's Land and the nooks and alleys of Oxenfurt, where he'll try to complete a contract from the mysterious Man of Glass.

Caught in a thick tangle of deceit, Geralt will need all his cunning and strength to solve the mystery and emerge unscathed.

Blood and Wine, a 20-hour tale that will introduce the all-new in-game region of Toussaint, will take Geralt to a land untainted by war,

where an atmosphere of carefree indulgence and knightly ritual masks an ancient, bloody secret.

Hearts of Stone will premiere in October, while Blood and Wine is slated for release in the first quarter of 2016.
Both expansions will be available on all three platforms: Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 4.

Gwent

Gwent is a collectible card game you can play in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. It puts you in a role of a general battling an enemy army with your own customized deck of cards.

These cards can be obtained throughout the game world: bought at shops, acquired from NPCs after winning gwent matches, or won in high-stakes tournament in Novigrad.

Each player must have a full deck for at least one faction to participate in a game of Gwent. This includes a minimum of 22 unit cards and a maximum of 10 special cards.

These unit cards can be made up of faction-specific units or Neutral cards, and if a player has more than 22 cards, they may choose to omit them from their deck in favor of drawing a better hand.

@Mark41, are you in the marketing business? You are very good at making all of your announcements with colors, fancy fonts, and other gimmicky techniques. ^^

Thanks Mark for starting a new thread.

This topic is a perfect example of how silly the 200 post rule is on this forum. We are all advlts here the topic doesn't drift and if it did the participants would get it back on track pretty fast.

There was a question I think it was back in #15 group where a drawing of a witch being hanged was on a rock. I found one in Novigrad. I am still not sure what it means other than maybe a witch was here?

Anyone know for sure?

EDIT: here's a pict of the first one I found out in the middle of no where.

Perhaps just graffiti the way I see it. No doubt it could have been done by anyone be they a Redanian solider, a witch hunter, or a mere commoner considering how sorceresses/sorcerers are treated during the time of The Witcher 3. Even more so considering where it is placed in the Novigrad image:

Spoiler
I believe that is Triss's home in Novigrad? Seems rather appropriate for someone to do that as it was discovered a sorceress was living there by the witch hunters, if my memory serves me correct.

They love their easter eggs, I know that much. Growing more fond of the combat of late. I just noticed axes have a different sound to them.

Not at all. I am a computer engineer (more or less).

It seems a have a good eye, if it comes to announcements that kind. But even is something doesn't feel right, you guys (as a part of it) could suggest some changes, to make the topic even better. :D

The trailer for the first expansion Hearts of Stone should be released very soon and maybe even this week. Marcin Momot said on twitter that the Hearts of Stone quests will be level 30+.

No need to change anything unless someone is an advertisemant fanatic who can see beyond the layman. ^^

Can't wait to see the trailer. I wonder if the expansions will introduce new gameplay mechanics to the overall game of TW3. Just like the expansions did for Morrowind.
