FYI, this story is more than a year old

If there was one stand out game of E3 for me, it would probably be The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.It was my last appointment of the show and at a point where I should have been ready to drop.

Instead, for forty-five minutes the game's Polish developer held me captivated with a live demo that set the bar for new-gen graphical fidelity and story-telling.

With the dust still not yet settled after a fantastic E3, CD PROJEKT RED has announced what we are going to see in the two versions of their E3 Game of the Show contender The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
