Description from IGDB IGDB

Based on the novels by a popular Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski, The Witcher is an action-oriented, epic fantasy RPG that takes players on a journey through a world which in many ways mirrors our own. Take on the role of Geralt of Rivia, a professional monster hunter, as he embarks on a quest of self-discovery and revenge. The game's time-delayed decision-consequence system ensures that the consequences of your choices will become apparent only in the following chapters of Geralt's story, discouraging returns to a previous save point. The Enhanced Edition includes technical and gameplay improvements that bring shorter loading times, more natural animations, and improved inventory, among others. Two new adventures titled The Price of Neutrality and Side Effects will extend players' enjoyment of the game. Finally, the "D'jinni Adventure Editor" enables players to create their adventures and shared them with others.

Storyline IGDB

Following the events of The Witcher novels, Geralt of Rivia, a professional monster slayer, finds himself at the foot of the mythical witcher stronghold chased by a mysterious force. Exhausted and suffering from retrograde amnesia, he is nursed back to health by his fellow witchers and a familiar sorceress. However, before he could put the pieces of his former life back together, the fortress is attacked by bandits led by a mysterious mage who succeed in stealing the carefully guarded secrets of the witcher order while dealing a deadly blow to one of its members. The remaining witchers embark on a search for their stolen property and a quest for revenge, spreading out to the four corners of the world. Geralt of Rivia ventures south, to the kingdom of Temeria...
