All Witcher 2 Downloadable Content will be free

/

Witcher 2 is coming tomorrow, so to start things off and give a little incentive to buy this PC-only  RPG, developer CD Projekt RED  has announced that all up-coming DLC's will be free of charge.

"Let [us] announce that all our DLCs will be FREE," they write. "All of them. If anything will be for purchase, those will be expansion packs. First DLC (side-quest called "Troll Trouble") [launches] together with the game release."

Witcher 2 is said to clock over at least a minimum of 40 hours of gameplay. When i say minimum, i mean the main storyline will take that long to finish, so if you add all the extra side quests and other things you can do in the Witcher world, where looking at maybe 70+ hours? this is indeed a meaty RPG and I'm sure all RPG fans are anxiously waiting for the game's release. We need more hardcore PC RPG's just like the old days and I hope more will come in the future.

There's a possibility in the future that the game will be released also on PS3 and Xbox 360 but for now it's considered a PC exclusive.

Just in case you don't know the Witcher 2, here's a few videos to get yourself familiar with the game.

The Witcher 2 is a month away and if you're a fan like me you can't wait to get your hands on this long-awaited sequel. Since it's close by i think it's only best to check if your current PC can take it.

The Witcher 2 System Requirements:

Miminum:

• OS: Windows XP SP2 / Windows Vista SP2 / Windows 7 (32/64-bit) • Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2 Ghz or AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ • Memory: 1 GB Windows XP / 2 GB Windows Vista and Windows 7 • Video Card: 512 MB RAM, supporting Pixel Shader 3.0 (Nvidia GeForce 8800 or ATI Radeon HD3850)

Recommended:

• OS: Windows XP SP2 / Windows Vista SP2 / Windows 7 (32/64-bit) • Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad or AMD Phenom X4 • Memory: 3 GB Windows XP / 4 GB Windows Vista and Windows 7 • Video Card: 1 GB RAM, supporting Pixel Shader 3.0 (Nvidia GeForce GTX260 or ATI Radeon

The system requirements isn't that heavy which is a surprise since the game looks amazing. If you can run at least Bulletstorm with no problems you should be fine. I also added some latest screenshots of Witcher 2 for you guys to check out.

 

The first Witcher released in 2007 and was a decent RPG.  It had a unique gameplay, a lengthy story and surprisingly fun overall. There is different fighting styles that The Witcher switches from depending on what enemy he's facing. He carries two different kinds of swords. A steel sword used for dealing with humans and a Silver Sword which is told to be the most affective against most monsters.

There's a lot of tactics involved in the game using the right tool or style to best your opponent. It was very buggy but was soon fixed  after numerous patches. I'd highly recommend the first game especially if your interested at The Witcher 2.

The Witcher 2: Assassin of Kings will be released on May 17 for the PC.
