Releasedatum The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt behoorlijk opgeschoven

De releasedatum van The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, is behoorlijk opgeschoven. Ontwikkelaar CD Projekt RED heeft dit kenbaar gemaakt aan de fans, met behulp van een open brief. In de brief werd de reden van uitstel uitvoerig uit de doeken gedaan:

Ever since we started working on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, we knew it would be an ambitious game. We wanted, and still aim, to give you an incredible experience, an epic adventure in a vast, completely open fantasy universe.

The sheer size and complexity of The Witcher, key features of the title, have had a decisive impact on production. Now, nearing the end of our work, we see many details that need to be corrected. When we release the most important game in our studio's history, we must be absolutely sure that we did everything we could to limit any bugs to a level that will allow you to enjoy the game thoroughly.

With this in mind, we took another look at current workloads and what they mean for the team. Even though everyone is working at full speed, we concluded that we need another 12 weeks, so we are shifting the release date of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt to May 19th, 2015.

We owe you an apology. We set the release date too hastily. It's a hard lesson, one to take to heart for the future. We know what we want to do to make Wild Hunt one of the best RPGs you will ever play. And we continue to work hard to achieve just that. So, we apologize and ask for your trust.

Uiteindelijk bleek de eerder genoemde releasedatum dus wat te voorbarig. Positieve is wel dat de kans nu veel groter is dat de game als een hele dikke RPG uit de bus komt. The Witcher 3 is nu verschoven naar 19 mei 2015. De game verschijnt dan voor de Xbox One, PlayStation 4 en pc.
