CD Projekt RED pushed back The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt a second time earlier this month, delaying the highly anticipated fantasy RPG into May 2015. That extra time won’t be used to develop new content, rather the studio will use it to bug fix and add extra polish.
Talking to Nerdacy via email, CD Projekt RED CEO Marcin Iwinski revealed, ““The content is locked, so no content changes are being made at this point.”
“The scale of the open world in the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is unprecedented,” he continued, “so fear not – there is enough gameplay to keep you playing for weeks.” What with this and the ridiculous amount of content in fellow RPG Dragon Age: Inquisition, developers are clearly trying to ruin our social lives completely.
One thing’s for sure, CD Projekt has given themselves a lot of time to get all that lovely open world content ready. The studio is currently in the process of “removing the final bugs and still running optimization in various areas”.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is now set for release on May 19, 2015.
