The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Interview

Eurogamer has published a short article-style interview with CD Projekt’s Thomas Gop about the suspension of The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf and the recently leaked footage from The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings.

Furthermore, Rise of the White Wolf “remains suspended” rather than canned following Atari funding issues, meaning the console-only game could be back on the cards at some point. A proper statement about the future of White Wolf will be released soon, the developer told us.

“Keep in mind – the video was from an early alpha build of the game and absolutely nothing in it should be considered final. The leaked movie merely shows some of the improvements we’ll be introducing, but there will be many more in the future. Most of the game’s true strengths remain unrevealed,” he said.

“We want to take what was best from the first game, power it up on our own technology and then extend and expand on it through lots of fresh, innovative ideas and solutions,” Gop added, explaining that there will be as many similarities between The Witcher 1 and The Witcher 2 as there will be differences.
