The Witcher 2 Website Relaunched, All DLC Will Be Free

CD Projekt RED has relaunched their official The Witcher 2 website with a fresh new look and a new gameplay video featuring the Nilfgaard senior ambassador eloquently introducing us (and Geralt) to the game world. Additionally, this post on the Tech Power Up! forums has a transcript of the GameStop Facebook Q&A that took place yesterday:

Q: will Geralt start with the equipment he had in the Witcher imported save? and if yes, which items will that be?

A: If you import your save you will carry over some of your items. For example Raven’s armor. There will be also some other benefits coming from importing savegames but I don’t want to spoil anything. Last but not least – IT’S NOT OBLIGATORY. The game is a stand-alone and plays perfectly for anyone who didn’t get a chance to play the previous part.

…

Q: Will the other DLC packs that are not a bonus to those who bought the game be available for download or packs.

A: Let me announce that all our DLCs will be FREE. All of them. If anything will be for purchase, those will be expansion packs. First DLC (side-quest called “Troll Trouble”) airs together with the game release.

Free DLC, gotta love it. Thanks, Thaddeus Mynor.
