CD Projekt Crimson turns 20 this yr, and to rejoice its anniversary GOG is gifting away two bundles of goodies (opens in new tab) associated to The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077, which embrace artwork, comics, soundtracks, movies, and extra. You may have already got a few of these goodies, both because of claiming them in earlier giveaways or by proudly owning the video games in query on GOG, however odds are you do not have all of them. There’s rather a lot.
The Witcher pack consists of footage of a live performance efficiency of The Witcher 3’s glorious rating from a Kraków music competition, high-resolution copies of artwork and artwork books, “emoji” interpretations of characters like Geralt, Ciri, and Regis, and comics like Fox Youngsters, which is tucked away within the Thronebreaker goodies pack. Based mostly on a narrative from Sapkowski’s ebook Season of Storms, it is one of many higher Witcher comics.
In the meantime, the Cyberpunk 2077 goodies pack accommodates wallpapers, idea artwork, artwork from the SteelBook version’s circumstances, and posters of in-game ads, fashions, and gang graffiti. It isn’t fairly as a lot stuff, however then it is primarily based on one sport reasonably than three RPGs and a few card sport spin-offs.
Be aware that this twentieth anniversary is the birthday of CD Projekt Crimson, the sport growth studio based in 2002 when CD Projekt the Polish retailer and writer acquired the rights to Andrzej Sapkowski’s Witcher and determined to strive its hand at this complete videogame-making factor. CD Projekt itself dates again to 1994, when founders Marcin Iwiński and Michał Kiciński, who’d been promoting cracked copies of video games on CDs in a Warsaw market, determined to go legit. In case you’re within the historical past, here is how CD Projekt Crimson climbed to the highest of the RPG mountain, then slipped.
CD Projekt Crimson’s final launch was one other Witcher spin-off, the roguelike deckbuilder Gwent: Rogue Mage, which is essentially the most brutal Witcher sport but. As our personal Lauren Aitken says, “One factor I’ve realised since taking part in Rogue Mage is that I am really not pretty much as good at Gwent as I assumed. Whereas I’ve discovered the meta for a few of the playing cards, there are specific enemy varieties that hold obliterating me and, as PC Gamer’s resident Witcher aficionado, I am not joyful about it.”
