Synopsis [edit]

Setting [edit]

The game is fix in the Continent, a fictional fantasy world based on Slavonic mythology.[30] [31] [32] Information technology is surrounded by parallel dimensions and extra-dimensional worlds. Humans, elves, dwarves, monsters and other creatures co-be on the Continent, but not-humans are often persecuted for their differences. The Continent is caught up in a state of war between the empire of Nilfgaard[33]—led by Emperor Emhyr var Emreis (Charles Dance),[34] who invaded the Northern Kingdoms[33]—and Redania, ruled past King Radovid Five.[35] Several locations appear, including the free metropolis of Novigrad,[36] the Redanian city of Oxenfurt, the no homo'south land of Velen, the city of Vizima (former uppercase of the recently conquered Temeria), the Skellige islands (home to several Norse-Gaels Viking clans) and the witcher stronghold of Kaer Morhen.[35] [37]

The principal character is the Witcher, Geralt of Rivia (Doug Cockle),[38] a monster hunter trained since childhood in combat, tracking, abracadabra and magic, and made stronger, faster and resistant to toxins by mutagens. He is aided by his lover, the powerful sorceress Yennefer of Vengerberg (Denise Gough),[38] his former love interest Triss Merigold (Jaimi Barbakoff),[38] the bard Dandelion (John Schwab), the dwarf warrior Zoltan Chivay (Alexander Morton),[39] [33] and Geralt'due south Witcher mentor Vesemir (William Roberts).[39] [35] Geralt is spurred into action by the reappearance of his and Yennefer's adopted daughter, Ciri (Jo Wyatt).[39] Ciri is a Source, born with innate (and potentially vast) magical abilities; subsequently the credible decease of her parents, she was trained every bit a witcher while Yennefer taught her magic.[33] Ciri disappeared years before to escape the Wild Hunt, a grouping of spectral warriors led past the King of the Wild Hunt: the elf Eredin, from a parallel dimension.[35]

Plot [edit]

Geralt and his mentor Vesemir get in at the town of White Orchard after receiving a letter from Geralt'due south long-lost lover Yennefer. After defeating a gryphon for the local Nilfgaardian garrison, Geralt accompanies Yennefer to the city of Vizima, where they meet with Emperor Emhyr. Emhyr orders Geralt to discover Ciri, who is Emhyr's biological girl and Geralt's adopted daughter. Ciri is a Kid of the Elder Blood, the last heir to an ancient Elven bloodline that grants her the ability to dispense time and space, and is being relentlessly stalked past the enigmatic Wild Hunt. Geralt learns of three places Ciri was recently seen: the war-ravaged swamp province of Velen, the free city-state of Novigrad, and the Skellige Isles.

In Velen, Geralt tracks Ciri to the fortress of the Bloody Baron, a warlord who recently took over the province. The Baron demands that Geralt detect his missing wife and girl in exchange for information about Ciri. Geralt learns that the Baron drove his ain family away with his drunken rages; while his daughter fled to Oxenfurt, his wife Anna became a servant of the Crones, iii malicious witches that watch over Velen. He also discovers that Ciri was briefly captured by the Crones, but escaped to the Baron'south stronghold before standing on to Novigrad.

At Novigrad, Geralt reunites with his former lover Triss Merigold, who has gone hugger-mugger to escape persecution past the Church of the Eternal Fire. He learns that Ciri and his old friend Dandelion ran afoul of Novigrad'due south powerful crime bosses while seeking to break a curse related to a mysterious phylactery. With the assistance of Triss and several old acquaintances, Geralt rescues Dandelion, who tells him that Ciri teleported to Skellige to escape pursuit by guards.

Geralt sails to Skellige and reunites with Yennefer, who is investigating a magical explosion about where Ciri was terminal seen. They notice that Ciri visited the island of Lofoten, but when the Wild Hunt attacked again, fled in a boat with an unidentified elf. When the boat returned to shore, its only occupant was Uma, a plain-featured creature Geralt previously saw living with the Encarmine Baron. Deducing that Uma was the victim of the curse Ciri tried to elevator in Novigrad, Geralt collects Uma in Velen and takes him to the nearly abandoned witcher school at Kaer Morhen. Working with Yennefer and his fellow witchers, Geralt breaks the curse and restores Uma's truthful identity: Avallac'h, Ciri's teacher and the elf seen with her on her travels. Avallac'h tells Geralt that he placed Ciri in an enchanted sleep on the Isle of Mists to keep her temporarily safe from the Wild Hunt.

Geralt finds Ciri on the Island of Mists, and learns from her that Eredin, the leader of the Wild Chase, wants her Elder Blood powers to save his homeworld from a ending known as the White Frost. They render to Kaer Morhen and fortify it against the inevitable arrival of the Hunt. In the battle that ensues, Vesemir is killed, causing Ciri to unleash her uncontrolled power and temporarily send the Hunt into retreat.

Realizing that the Hunt will never stop, Ciri and Geralt decide to fight Eredin at a fourth dimension and identify of their choosing. While Triss and Yennefer reform the Gild of Sorceresses to aid in the fight, Geralt recovers the Sunstone, an artifact that can communicate between worlds. Using the Sunstone, Avallac'h lures Eredin to Skellige, where Geralt defeats him in combat. As he dies, Eredin tells Geralt that Avallac'h has betrayed him, and plans to use Ciri's power for his ain ends.

As the White Frost begins to interlope on the Continent, Geralt and Yennefer pursue Avallac'h, simply detect Ciri alive and well. She tells Geralt that Avallac'h is not a traitor, and has simply ever intended to fight the White Frost. Thinking back on her human relationship with Geralt, Ciri finds the strength to finish the cataclysm; if Geralt patronized and protected her throughout the game, she dies in the attempt, but if he guided her to mature and brand her own choices, she survives.

The player's choices can lead to several different endings. If Ciri survives afterwards defeating the White Frost and Geralt took her to run across her male parent, she will become the Empress of Nilfgaard. If Ciri survives but did not meet the emperor, Geralt helps her fake her death, and she becomes a witcher. If Ciri is killed in her confrontation with the White Frost, the story ends with Geralt retrieving her medallion from the last remaining Crone. The player'southward choices too determine whether Geralt ends up in a romantic human relationship with Yennefer, Triss, or neither, and how much of the North is ultimately conquered by Nilfgaard.

Evolution [edit]

Although the game was planned to begin production in 2008, CD Projekt Red's preoccupation with Rise of the White Wolf pushed it back to 2011.[40] The company developed The Witcher three: Wild Chase with a self-funded budget of United states$81 million[b] over three-and-a-half years. The project began with 150 employees, eventually growing to over 250 in-house staff. ane,500 people were involved in the production globally. While the game is based on Andrzej Sapkowski'south novels, it is not an official continuation of them and Sapkowski's interest with the game was limited to the creation of its in-game map.[44] [45] The game was localised in fifteen languages, with a full of 500 vocalization actors.[46] [47] [48] The game was scripted concurrently in Polish and English to convalesce difficulty in localisation.[49] According to Side (the visitor which handled voice casting and recording), the 450,000-discussion script had 950 speaking roles. The voices were recorded from tardily 2012 to early 2015.[fifty] CD Projekt Red wanted the game to exist complimentary of any digital rights management (DRM) due to the developer'south unsuccessful control of piracy with its predecessor, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, whose DRM also made it run slowly.[51]

The Witcher three: Wild Hunt was created with the REDengine 3, CD Projekt Crimson'south proprietary game engine designed for nonlinear function-playing video games set in open globe environments,[52] aided by the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles and prepared for utilize in October 2014. The beginning play-through indicated to the developers that the open globe, despite its content and generation around the quests, seemed empty. Equally a solution, they added points of interest. The game had 5,000 bugs that Dec, which (with a launch date of February 2015) necessitated its postponement.[twoscore] [53] Like the previous 2 Witcher games, players are given a complex story with multiple choices and consequences. Unlike other game engines, REDengine 3 permits a complex storyline without sacrificing virtual world design.[54] The user interface was made more intuitive with filigree-based solutions. The photographic camera system was improved to use long shots for battles with multiple enemies and close-ups for more-intimate confrontations.[55] More animations were used for combat sequences than in The Witcher 2, with each lasting less than i second for quick succession.[56] Game director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz and senior game designer Damien Monnier cited Dark Souls and Demon'southward Souls equally influences on Wild Hunt 's gainsay organisation,[57] [58] and level designer Miles Tost and senior surroundings creative person Jonas Mattsson cited The Legend of Zelda series and Red Expressionless Redemption as influencing the game's level designs and environments.[59]

Months before its release date, the game's economy, crafting, and inventory systems were incomplete and apparently unable to meet the deadline. Senior gameplay designer Matthew Steinke thought of a remedy and drew upward a system context diagram. To allocate prices, Steinke wrote a formula based on rate of impairment, defence, or healing. Polynomial least squares were used to determine its efficacy, and it was institute to eliminate bugs from the organisation and reduce loading times.[60] Each character was given a unique personality to contrast the fetch-quest system typically used in video games. It was decided early on that the writing would be witty, with metaphors and unsaid meanings. Dialogue was limited to 15 lines, with occasional exceptions, to retain content originality. Player options were written every bit morally cryptic, reflecting real life and Andrzej Sapkowski'south original Witcher series. Alcoholism, abuse and sexuality, depicted as normal parts of the medieval earth, were incorporated into the story for actuality.[twoscore] [53] [49] Areas of the open up world were based on Poland, Amsterdam, and Scandinavia.[49] Objects were modelled past hand.[53]

Storylines such as Yennefer imprisoning Geralt on an island and Geralt'south covert recruitment to the Wild Chase were discarded to make the game smaller and avoid splitting it into ii parts. The carte game Gwent was preceded by other mini-game proposals, including a drinking game, pocketknife throwing, and ice skating.[40] A re-enactment of the Battle of Grunwald was recorded for the sounds of battle, marching, blacksmithing, and the firing of arrows. Recording the knights' voices for post-processing, the speakers wore helmets for an accurate sound. Marcin Przybyłowicz was the game'south music director and composer, with additional music contributed by Polish folk ring Percival. According to Przybyłowicz, working with Percival was a challenge; he expected an academic approach earlier learning that most of the grouping were not formally trained, and much of the music was improvised. Multi-instrumentalist Robert Jaworski of the folk band Żywiołak recorded lute, Renaissance fiddle, bowed gusle, and hurdy-gurdy sections. The score was performed in Frankfurt an der Oder by the Brandenburg State Orchestra, conducted by Bernd Ruf.[61]

Release [edit]

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was announced in 2013, then to be released for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox I the following year.[62] [63] [64] The release date was later delayed from the third quarter of 2022 to February 2015.[65] Later on missing its planned release date of 24 Feb,[66] [67] CD Projekt Scarlet confirmed in April that the game was released to manufacturing.[68] The Witcher 3: Wild Chase was released worldwide on xix May 2015.[66] Smoothen Prime Minister Ewa Kopacz and President Bronisław Komorowski visited CD Projekt Red to gloat the launch.[40] It was distributed to retailers by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment in North America and Bandai Namco in Western Europe, Commonwealth of australia and New Zealand.[69] [70] In addition to the standard edition, players tin besides purchase the Collector's Edition, which includes the base game and items such every bit an artbook, a statue of Geralt fighting confronting a griffin, and a Witcher medallion.[71] At E3 2019, a port for the Nintendo Switch, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Complete Edition, was announced.[72] It was adult in cooperation with Saber Interactive,[73] and was released on 15 October 2019.[74] The port features slight graphical downgrades to compensate for the Switch's less powerful hardware, but is otherwise identical to existing versions.[75]

CD Projekt Reddish co-founder Marcin Iwiński listed three pillars that he considered integral to marketing: game quality, a "gamer-centric value proffer", and communication with fans. To reach the second, The Witcher three: Wild Hunt was marketed as "Skyrim in a Game of Thrones sauce".[76] The third explained in detail the visual downgrade from earlier promotional footage to the finished product, which Iwiński thought constructive.[76] The logo was re-designed to make it less obvious that The Witcher 3: Wild Chase was a sequel; the number 3 suggested a claw marker or mask to an audition unfamiliar with the series, while fans would recognise it as the mark of the Wild Hunt.[77]

Downloadable content and expansions [edit]

The programmer studied Witcher forums and websites such equally Reddit to predict what players more often than not desired from downloadable content (DLC). A collection of 16 free DLC was released, equally announced before release past the developers.

The expansion was critically acclaimed, rated a 9/ten by IGN and GameSpot.[81] [82] The second expansion pack, Blood and Wine, follows Geralt as he travels to Toussaint (a Nilfgaardian duchy untouched by war) to runway down a mysterious beast which is terrorizing the region. It was also critically acclaimed, winning the Best RPG category at The Game Awards 2016.[83] A Game of the Year edition, with the base game, both expansions and all DLC, was released on xxx August 2016.[84]

The game will exist available as a free upgrade to existing owners on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, or to purchase separately.

CD Projekt Red confirmed to Kotaku that they had entered talks with mod creators, prompting discussion about why the company, which earned $300mil in 2020, sought out community assistance.[86] The release was scheduled to be released in the 2d half of 2021,[87] but was delayed and at present expected to release during the second quarter of 2022.[88] The game is beingness adult by Saber Interactive, the developers responsible for the game's Nintendo Switch port.[89] The company confirmed the re-release would feature downloadable content based on the TV series adaptation.
