'The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt' (ALL) Developer Warns Of Questionable CD Keys

by Rainier on May 6, 2015 @ 2:11 p.m. PDT

Marking the final installment in the action RPG trilogy, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt combines decision-based storytelling flair with a living open world larger than any other in modern RPG history.

Open-world, free-roaming exploration is an adventure in itself as the player will gallop through war-ravaged lands, sail misty waters and track down dangerous beasts for money.

An improved combat system will allow players to feel like a real monster-hunter, a witcher who uses his superior senses and fighting skills to survive in a dark fantasy world--while he embarks on a quest to save his loved ones.

The new core mechanics of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt immerse the player in the experience completely, with no Quick Time Events, only intuitive RPG gameplay.

Green Man Gaming is running a pre-order deal on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, offering CD Project's upcoming action RPG at $39, a whopping 35% below the offiical $60 price tag.

People jumped all over that deal but now CD Project is warning fans to be cautious as the developer has no idea where the activation/CD keys are coming from, claiming they are from a unknown source, with the additional side effect that any revenue made from those pre-orders is most likely NOT going towards CD Project.

CD Project's business development manager Rafał Jaki issued a small statement :

I would kindly ask our fans no to buy via GMG at this time. We had not sold them Keys and dont know the origin of them.

We have worked with GMG in the past for w2 and they were a legit partner.

We control all digital and the codes, and because we decided not to sell Keys to GMG it came as a suprise that they are doing a special promo without buying Keys from us. We have reach out to ask for the source of they Keys but up until now there was no response. They might sell nVidia Keys (which are not to be sold but gifted with the nVidia promo), or they just bough Keys from gog just like a regular customer and now they resell them with a loss (we cannot prevent anyone from selling something).

They also list Bandai Namco as the published which is not true for w3 (namco is our box distributor in PAL), so GMG is not a CDPR partner for W3 but they still might sell Keys that will work.

Key Features:

  • Trained from early childhood and mutated to gain superhuman skills, strength and reflexes, witchers are a distrusted counterbalance to the monster-infested world in which they live.
    • Gruesomely destroy foes as a professional monster hunter armed with a range of upgradeable weapons, mutating potions and combat magic.
    • Hunt down a wide range of exotic monsters from savage beasts prowling the mountain passes to cunning supernatural predators lurking in the shadows of densely populated towns.
    • Invest your rewards to upgrade your weaponry and buy custom armour, or spend them away in horse races, card games, fist fighting, and other pleasures the night brings.
  • Built for endless adventure, the massive open world of The Witcher sets new standards in terms of size, depth and complexity.
    • Traverse a fantastical open world: explore forgotten ruins, caves and shipwrecks, trade with merchants and dwarven smiths in cities, and hunt across the open plains, mountains and seas.
    • Deal with treasonous generals, devious witches and corrupt royalty to provide dark and dangerous services.
    • Make choices that go beyond good & evil, and face their far-reaching consequences.
  • Take on the most important contract to track down the child of prophecy, a key to save or destroy this world.
    • In times of war, chase down the child of prophecy, a living weapon of power, foretold by ancient elven legends.
    • Struggle against ferocious rulers, spirits of the wilds and even a threat from beyond the veil – all hell-bent on controlling this world.
    • Define your destiny in a world that may not be worth saving.
  • Built exclusively for next generation hardware, the REDengine 3 renders the world of The Witcher visually nuanced and organic, a real true to life fantasy.
  • Dynamic weather systems and day/night cycles affect how the citizens of the towns and the monsters of the wilds behave.
  • Rich with storyline choices in both main and subplots, this grand open world is influenced by the player unlike ever before.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is the final episode of the RPG series and the last part of the legend of Geralt of Rivia.
