CD Projekt is bringing the Witcher-y world of Geralt and friends to iOS and Android, and it’s arriving in the form of an augmented-reality, free-to-play “location-based RPG”.
The Witcher: Monster Slayer, as the game will be known, unfolds long before the events of existing Witcher games, in a land where monsters still roam freely. It’s into this untamed version of the Continent that players are thrust, through the bedazzling technological magic of pointing their screen at things, in the role of a fledgling Witcher.
By roaming around the real world, transformed into “the dark fantasy realm of The Witcher” via augmented reality, players are tasked with tracking, studying, and ultimately fighting creatures “both new and familiar” in a bid to become an elite monster hunter.
