Witcher-enhanced edition?

What's happened to this? I've been waiting months to continue my Witcher game - I only got to chapter 2, then heard about this so I thought that I may as well wait for the update rather than keep ploughing on with the game!

I did exactly the same. I'm not in any great rush though so if they want to spend the time getting this enhancement right I'm happy.
Kudos to them as well. It was already a good game, and had apparently sold 600,000 copies, so it seems amazing that they would go to the trouble of doing this.
 
This is being released over here on the 19th September - 8 days from now - can't wait.

We know that you‘ve been waiting for this all year… and we are not talking about Christmas or your birthday. The Witcher: Enhanced Edition, the ultimate version of the best RPG in years is done and will soon be in your hands! We’re serious – we actually finished it. The game will ship to stores on September 16 in North America and September 19 elsewhere in the world.

Shortly after the release of The Witcher, some of the greatest minds in the universe (the developers at CD Projekt RED, of course!) got together and collected tons of feedback from fans and media about the game. They used that feedback to craft a huge list of things they felt they could improve to make The Witcher even better. New inventory, voice-overs, models, adventures, gestures, animations, languages, alchemy and sex cards, as well as improved stability, reduced loading times, and many more enhancements have found their way into the game… frankly, we can’t remember all of the changes. Blame it on the Polish vodka, long work hours, or whatever.

What’s more, we’ve prepared what we think is the richest “standard” edition in the history of games! Together with the game, you will get bonus DVDs with re-mastered “Making-Of” videos, the official soundtrack of the game, the “Music Inspired by The Witcher” album, a game guide, manual, map of the Witcher’s world and a short story from Andrzej Sapkowski. Start clearing room on your shelf now… you get all of that stuff for the price of a regular game.

Oh, one more important thing – because we’re – ummm… well… crazy – we’re giving all of this away for free to anyone who already purchased The Witcher! Yeah, that’s right – FOR FREE!!! Just login on our page and download it directly to your hard drive.

If you haven’t played The Witcher yet, though, keep it quiet! There’s nobody less cool than someone who didn’t buy last year’s PC RPG of the Year. Just head over to the closest store and pre-order it if you can. Buy a copy for your mother, brother, grandpa, aunt, lover and even for that old lady that lives next door! They will love you for it.

So mark the date – September 16 in North America and September 19 everywhere else. Rock on.

Wow thats really good of them tbh. Most companies *cough* EA *cough* would never of allowed free content :p :D

After selling 600,000 copies and getting good reviews I think most companies would have moved on to other things rather than 'enhancing' their game. Nice one.
