The Witcher 3 Collector's Edition getting exclusive physical content on Xbox One

   

CD Projekt RED announces Gwent and bolsters Xbox One Collector’s Edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

CD Projekt RED, the developer of the critically acclaimed Witcher series of games, is excited to announce Gwent, a card game experience embedded within the upcoming open world fantasy RPG-Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. The studio is also thrilled to reveal the inclusion of additional physical content in the Xbox One Collector’s Edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

About Gwent

Gwent is a fast-paced card game that can be played within The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on every platform. Invented by dwarves and perfected over centuries of tavern table play, Gwent is a game of initial simplicity and ultimate depth, something beloved by both road-weary travelers during long nights around the campfire and elegant nobles looking to liven up dragging dinner parties. The game is about the clash of two armies locked in mortal struggle on a battlefield where the players are the leaders and the cards their forces. With four different factions offering unique combat styles and endless paths to victory, Gwent is every adventurer’s first choice when it comes to one-on-one card-based dueling. Take risks and think on your feet, strategize and deliver cunning combos, use potent magic and mighty hero cards and be the last one standing on the field of honor!

Key Features

• Over 150 unique playing cards
• 4 distinct factions: the mighty and cunning Nilfgaardian Empire, the brave Northern Realms and their siege weapons, the agile and devious Scoia’tael, and the brutal monsters of No Man’s Land.
• Powerful spells allow players to control the weather and affect units on the battlefield.
• An array of combat styles caters to individual playstyles: close range with heavy knights, long range with skilled archers or artillery with powerful siege weapons.
• Powerful hero cards, unique to each faction.

The studio has also announced the inclusion of additional physical content in the Xbox One Collector’s Edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt-Gwent, a highly addictive card game, and a unique cloth map of the in-game world.

The Xbox One Collector's Edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt now contains:

• The standard edition of the game, containing: the official soundtrack, a beautiful and detailed map of the in-game world, unique stickers, and the developer-created "Witcher Universe - The Compendium"
• A giant, 33x24x26 cm, 100% hand painted, Polystone figure of Geralt of Rivia battling a Griffin
• An exclusive, collector grade Witcher medallion
• A one of a kind SteelBook
• A two-hundred page artbook, containing breathtaking art from the game
• A cloth map of the game world
• Two Gwent card decks
• Huge outer and inner Collector’s Boxes you can store your Witcher merchandise in!

“Gwent is an amazing game and we're really happy to be able to bring it to the physical realm with Microsoft's help. Now we’ve got Gwent in every copy of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt as an in-game experience for free on every platform, and a physical version in the Xbox One CE, how awesome is that?” said Marcin Iwiñski, CD Projekt RED Co-founder and Joint CEO.

Update: CD Projekt responds to 'heated comments' on Xbox One-exclusive Witcher 3 physical items

Looking at the heated comments, I believe that our announcement of the physical addition of two decks of Gwent cards and a cloth map, requires a further word from us.

Here at CD Projekt Red, we always put gamers first. Our PC versions are released DRM-free, we bend over backwards to give you the most beefed up editions of our games (be it standard or Collector's), and we deliver the same game, regardless of platform or version you buy. Moreover, we promised not have any exclusive DLCs, neither per platform nor per retailer, and we do stand by our promise--nothing has changed, nor will change in this regard.

Don't get me wrong, I do understand that these extra items might be desirable for Witcher fans playing the game on other platforms. However, as we are not offering any platform or retail exclusive DLCs or any other form of gameplay differentiation, we do have to find other ways to support our partners. We are also providing special pre-order items for certain retailers around the world, including Witcher comic books, posters, steel books or medallions. Funnily enough, we did not notice any heated comments on the pre-order specials.

What is the reason? Why are we doing this? We need the support of partners to make our game visible worldwide. This should hopefully translate to better sales, which will in consequence allow us to do what we have been doing for the last 10 years, i.e. reinvest this money to make more great RPGs, while still sticking to our values.

If you still consider that adding two decks of Gwent cards and a map of the in-game world to the Xbox One CE equals us betraying our values and not fulfilling our promises, well, it does make us sad, but the final call is always yours to make.

Still, I do hope that what we offer is unique and we can ask you to give us the benefit of the doubt. We have more great things to announce for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in the coming months and I promise you won't be disappointed (yes, yes, there are no more exclusives coming).

The Witcher 3 to get 16 free post-launch DLCs
《巫师 3：狂猎》宣布将于游戏发售后「免费」提供 16 项追加内

　　曾提供原先《巫师 2：王国刺客》的消费者免费更新升级成《巫师 2：王国刺客 加强版》、堪称 “业界良心” 的波兰游戏开发商 CD Projekt RED，在日前公开表态他们对于「数字著作权管理技术（Digital Rights Management；简称：DRM，指的是出版者用来控制被保护对象的使用权的一些技术）」及现今游戏产业惯用以销售额外 DLC 赚取更多利润的反感后，7 日宣布该团队预定于 2015 年 2 月 24 日推出的 《巫师 3：狂猎（The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt）》，将在游戏发售后「免费」释出多达 16 项的 DLC，并已公开最初 4 项的内容。

　　目前计划会在游戏问世后的隔日提供「Temerian 防具组合」与可为主角杰洛特-加龙省（Geralt of Rivia）变换外观的「胡子与发型组」；并在下一周发布「叶奈法的额外造型」和「合约：消失矿坑」，至于其他的 DLC 将固定每周释出 2 项。

．Temerian 防具组合：为最精良的战士所保留的组合，内容包括外衣、手套、裤子、靴子、 战马盔甲与可扩充补给品的挂包。
．胡子与发型组：可将主角杰洛特-加龙省打扮成自己喜好的风格。
．叶奈法的额外造型：为强大的女术士叶奈法（Yennefer of Vengerberg）提供全新的样貌。
．合约：消失矿坑：Skellige 村庄中的矿坑消失了，前往调查看看发生什么事情吧。

　　CD Projekt Red 合作创办人兼联合 CEO Marcin Iwinski 也随着这次发布的消息，写了一封公开信表达他与其余工作同仁的对于 “游戏” 的态度。信件里表示身为热爱游戏的一份子，每当购入新游戏后，都希望可以受到游戏公司妥善的对待，一旦遇到问题时会期望可以获得帮助、会期望游戏能持续更新以便提升每一次游玩的体验，而要是能够获赠免费的追加内容，无论只是一个人物服装、武器或是防具，玩家们都会感到被重视。

　　不幸的是，这种情况在游戏产业发生的机会已变得相当稀有。现在或许游戏才刚一上市，玩家就必须为了一点点的 DLC 再付出一笔相对可观的金钱。

　　CD Projekt Red 深信这种方式是不对的，所以《巫师 3：狂猎》决定来点不一样的策略。开门见山的说，不论任何平台、任何版本的玩家，只要有购入此作品就能无偿获得 16 项的 DLC，这也就是 CD Projekt Red 对所有消费者表达感谢的方式。

　　PC / Xbox One / PS4 美式中古奇幻风格角色扮演游戏《巫师》系列最新作《巫师 3：狂猎》预定 2015 年 2 月 24 日发售。

After this date, a DLC bundle consisting of two DLCs will be published every week, entirely for free. Gamers are entitled to the free DLC regardless of obtaining the game via pre-order or after launch. Instructions on how to obtain DLCs on specific platforms will be provided at a later date.

Q: What do I have to do to receive the 16 free DLCs?

A: The only thing you need to do to receive the 16 DLCs is purchase The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. All of the DLCs will be available for free on every platform (i.e. Xbox One, PC, and PlayStation 4).

Q: Do I have to pre-order to get the free DLCs?

A: No, each piece of content will be available for download regardless of you buying the game before or after launch on February 24th, 2015.

Q: I have the standard version of the game (i.e. not the Collector’s Edition). Do I still get the free DLCs?

A: Yes. You get the 16 DLCs regardless of the version of the game you bought (i.e. standard or Collector's, digital or physical).

Q: What’s the plan? When can I expect the DLCs to be released?

Open Letter from Marcin Iwiński, co-founder and Joint CEO of CD Projekt RED

“We love games. We love collecting them, playing them, and everything connected to that experience. Every time we reach out for a new release, we expect to be taken care of. We expect support if we encounter any problems, we love updates constantly improving the experience, and we feel really special when we receive free content that gives us more than we initially paid for. It doesn’t have to be huge, it can be an awesome skin for a character, or an extra sword, or armor.

Unfortunately this treatment is quite rare these days. As gamers, we nowadays have to hold on tight to our wallets, as surprisingly right after release, lots of tiny pieces of tempting content materialize with a steep price tag attached. Haven’t we just paid a lot of cash for a brand new game?

As CD Projekt RED, we strongly believe this is not the way it should work and, with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, we have decided to do it differently. Cutting to the chase, everyone who buys Wild Hunt will receive 16 specially prepared DLCs absolutely for free, regardless of platform. You don’t have to pre-order, you don’t have to buy any special edition to get them -- if you own a copy of Wild Hunt, they’re yours. This is our way of saying thank you for buying our game.”

Regards, Marcin
