The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Message Board older than one year ago

Look at these new screens, or risk assassination.

Hidden in Atari's fiscal 2009 financial report, there was a tiny but informative nugget on CD Projekt's The Witcher 2. According to the report, the action RPG is "planned" to land on PC in "Spring 2011." The report included no further details, though Atari's fiscal 2010 ends on March 31, so expect the game sometime before then. Also, no mention was made of a console release, though CD Projekt stressed earlier this week that it still plans to bring the game to consoles.

Console gamers anxious to traverse CD Projekt's fictional land in The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, fear not. Confirming console plans on Facebook, CD Projekt assures us porting the game is still very much on the table.

"There are some rumors about us leaving The Witcher-2-on-consoles idea," the Facebook post reads. "That's pretty weird, as we want and plan to release the game on consoles & nothing has changed in this matter. We're still sure, that Geralt & company has something to offer both - PC & console players."

Of course, CD Projekt always planned to offer the first game on consoles, though that dream eventually died. Hopefully the sequel doesn't encounter the same bumps on its road to the console kingdom.
