The game set new standards for realistic, non-linear game narration, spinning a mature, thought-provoking story in one of the most extraordinary RPGs ever released. Each decision made by the player will have consequences, and could significantly impact on future events and how the world unfolds. In addition to its epic story, the game features a spectacular combat system that uniquely combines dynamic action with tactical depth. The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition features both beautiful graphics and sophisticated in-game mechanics, drawing players into one of the liveliest and believable worlds ever created in a video game.
