The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt developer CD Projekt RED today revealed that the game has gone gold. This means that there won't be anymore development on the game's main campaign or storyline; the game has shipped to factories for copy and distribution among retailers. Everything that happens to the game now has to be done through updates or patches.
“We worked so damn hard over the past three years to bring you this game,” said studio head Adam Badowski, “From the corrupt nobles in Novigrad to ancient monsters lurking in deep forests, to the bustling cities, colorful ports and breathtaking vistas; all the people, all the places.
“We literally spent tens of thousands of hours to turn all that into an adventure that will kick your ass and make you want to come for more. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has gone gold and will soon be yours.”
The Witcher 3 will hit store shelves on May 19. Until then, you'll have to wait. On the bright side, you can probably expect a couple of new gameplay trailers in the next few weeks. These should depict finalized versions of The Witcher 3, so you'll get to see what all the excitement regarding its graphical capabilities is about.
