“The Witcher: Enhanced Edition” brings the multi-award winning Witcher series to life. You will assume the role of The Witcher, Geralt, a legendary monster slayer caught in a web of intrigue as he battles forces vying for control of the world.

• New Adventures! Such as “The Price of Neutrality” where Geralt comes back to Kaer Morhen and finds a mysterious camp has sprung up near the stronghold; and “Side Effects” which focuses on Geralt’s close friend, Dandelion, and his troubles in Vizima City.
• Schwag! Such as a “Making Of” DVD with never-before-seen bonus material, 2 Music CDs – the original soundtrack and music inspired by The Witcher, the Official Game Guide, The Witcher world map, and “The Witcher” short story by Andrzej Sapkowski featuring new monster artwork!
