The Witcher 3 pushed back to 2015

4.6
CD Projekt RED, the mind behind the Witch series, have let us know that they intend to delay the launch of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt until around February 2015. The title was originally expected to drop prior to years end 2014. The developer went on to detail why exactly the title was being pushed back, they felt that due to the ambitious goals regarding this game it needed more time to mature.

We recently reexamined what we had achieved thus far, and faced a choice about the game's final release date.

We recently reexamined what we had achieved thus far, and faced a choice about the game's final release date," it said in the release. The decision we made was difficult, thoroughly considered, and ultimately clear and obvious. We could have released the game towards the end of this year as we had initially planned. Yet we concluded that a few additional months will let us achieve the quality that will satisfy us, the quality gamers expect from us. Consequently, we have set the release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for February 2015.

We know many of you would have liked to play The Witcher 3 sooner, as soon as possible, even. We're sorry to make you wait longer than you, or we, initially assumed you would. At the same time, we believe the game will prove to be worth the wait and meet the expectations you have of us. We believe The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will be an exceptional RPG, one of the best, providing many hours of wonderful entertainment.CD Projekt

As of me never playing The Witcher games, I'm assuming it would be a great idea for them to push the game back to fix the major problems

Miss If postponing it means they're going to put more work into it and make it better than I'm all for it. I don't have a problem waiting a couple more extra months if they're actually improving it.


I am sure they will be improving some great crucial problems and things that need improving.

-CP Wow, this is horrible news.....


not at all. Would you rather have a unfinsihed game that is rushed or a quality game. All you do is right random crap on these to get your comments/posts up.


Actually, not at all. Why not take some time to read everything I have typed before making such ignorant comments? Your ludicrous statement just shows how you do not take any time to read and reply to the news. Now please **** off.

BTW: An unfinished game that is released sooner is better if updates are released later, like GTA V.

daRealRush I'm glad that they would rather take their time and finish the game instead of release one that isn't even finished or not.


I sort of like when game companies do this, it shows that they have loyalty for their fan base.
