The Witcher puts players in the role of the mysterious and legendary Geralt of Rivia, the most prominent of witchers, a brotherhood of mercenary monster-slayers. Players will embark on an enthralling journey set in the vivid universe created by multi-million-selling author Andrzej Sapkowski; a world in which the lines of good and evil are virtually non-existent. With more than 250 abilities to select, The Witcher features extensive character customisation, further enhancing the intense real-time tactical combat system which - coupled with the engaging story based on Sapkowski's books - creates a refreshing modern take on the traditional role-playing genre.
