CD Projekt Red announces that the highly anticipated The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt RPG release date has been delayed for next year. Meanwhile, another playable character apart from Geralt of Rivia is hinted by the creators through the unveiled gameplay trailer, "Elder Blood".

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt release date was originally set on December 8, 2014, however CD Projekt Red announced through an open letter that fans will have to wait a little longer to experience the continuation of The Witcher 2.

According to the developers, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt release date delay is mainly due to changes they will have to include as they near the completion of the game. These changes include correcting bugs and making sure that the experience of playing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is elevated from its predecessors.

The letter continued on saying, "The sheer size and complexity of The Witcher, key features of the title, have had a decisive impact on production. Now, nearing the end of our work, we see many details that need to be corrected. When we release the most important game in our studio's history, we must be absolutely sure that we did everything we could to limit any bugs to a level that will allow you to enjoy the game thoroughly."

Meanwhile, CD Projekt Red also made sure that there are gameplay details of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt made available for the disheartened fans. As the developers have announced that a second playable character will be made available upon the release date, they have yet to confirm which character this will be.
