CD Projekt RED invites you to digital godhood.

The Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition stands out with its complexity, depth and organic feel. Such an incredibly life-like realm--now, you too can become its lord creator!

Our friends at CD Projekt RED have prepared a set of tools that will allow modders of any skill to access the creative potential that up until now was only accessible to the creators of The Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition, one of the most acclaimed modern role-playing title, known for it's powerful vision and deep, mature gameplay. The suite known as the [url=http://redkit.cdprojektred.com" target="_blank]REDkit[/url] has entered the Open Beta phase, and is available as a free Witcher 2 upgrade via [url=http://redkit.cdprojektred.com" target="_blank]its newly-published official website[/url]--or if you own the game here, on GOG.com, from within your account, in the game's download section. The site also holds an extensive Wiki manual that will help you start modding away, a quick guide for installation and your first steps with the kit, forums to connect you with its other users, and a news section to keep you updated on new developments. Last, but not the least, the REDkit's official site is also a hub for exchanging your creations, allowing everyone to download, play, and experience the worlds created by modders. There's even a user-created mod introducing a whole new adventure already featured and ready to download. Are you excited yet? Now watch the trailer below:

With the addition of [url=http://redkit.cdprojektred.com" target="_blank]REDkit[/url], CD Projekt RED continues on its course to do exceptional things in role-playing games development. Let's hear from the studio's head, Adam Badowski:

"For CD Projekt RED, RPGs are all about telling amazing stories," said Adam. "We want to give players the power to tell the same kind of non-linear, branching stories that made The Witcher games so popular. Our fans have helped us for years to make our games the best they can be, and REDkit is part of embracing our community as a partner in game development."

With a bold statement like that, the tool itself has much to live up to. Wondering what kind of creative powers can this suite actually unleash? Let's look at [url=http://redkit.cdprojektred.com" target="_blank]REDkit's[/url] key features:

• Intuitive tools developed for all would-be storytellers and game designers
• Complex and user-friendly terrain tools, including the SpeedTree foliage system
• Utilize the astonishing graphics and visuals that power The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings
• Create a realistic and dynamic day and night cycle in a few clicks
• Implement non-linear stories and quests with a unique quest system that allows player decisions to impact the game world and plot
• Build believable characters, NPCs, and entire communities and set their interactions with the player
• Place dialogue cameras automatically or manually to create a movielike experience

Are you ready to ascend to digital godhood to create worlds and shape the fates of many lifelike characters, crafting unique multi-layered adventures for everyone to enjoy and admire? If you already own a copy of The Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition, there's nothing stopping you. If not, you can get yours on GOG.com, for only $19.99. Now it's worth more than ever!

I'm wondering how long it will take until we can play the game with nude Triss ... I think not so long. xD
Can you make total conversion stuff with this?
Love it and I love CD Projekt Red for supporting the game even after this somehow long time and while developing Cyberpunk 2077. :)

I thought you already could. Not that my machine can run it, but still.
I'm definitely looking forward to actually try to make my own adventures with this but I'm going to wait until the summer so some possible inital issues will be resolved along with a neat tutorial on how to use it.

I quite like the Witcher 2 engine so it would be great to use different models to make an entirely different setting but with similar gameplay too. The only problem I see with it though is that it's still quite demanding but perhaps that's easy solved by making it less open world or limit amount of details actually used when one play a custom world.

I'm not really a modder, but that's an awesome update. Thank you!
Nice. Good job CDP RED. DRM-Free and modding tools is a great way to go.
Downloaded to try it later. I feel for the people having to download the whole game now though. All that extra gigabytes of download because of the rendered cut-scenes. Hopefully with Witcher 3 they will make it optional for for the people who have machines that can render real time cut-scenes like Witcher 2 pre EE did.
Thanks CD Project! U are simply the best.

I already tried the Redkit a bit. It offers huge ways of modding, but it is also rather complex.

If u need help, a user named Klabautermann, has already made some video tutorials:

Than you GOG and CDProject.
Looking at this I just collapsed with wonder at what can be done. Seriously the Witcher 2 is going to be even more fun once people begin to release mods for it.
The new NWN.
Sweet! ;_;
Damn, I just downloaded my entire library last week, finishing up Sunday, and now the biggest one of all..... crap.

Did anything in the game install file change or would all I need to download is the 5 parts to the kit (and even then I would only need to do that if I wanted the kit, right?)

Any help appreciated. Comcast is already upset with me for last week.... lol


EDIT: I just looked and the version I DL looks like it was 3.01.17 and the one there now is not that (3.4 or something) so I guess I DO have to redownload the Witcher 2???

If that's the case, then please inform us when you're done making changes to The Witcher 2 and I'll just wait and redownload it once.

Do not quote me, but since the only thing with the 'new' tab for me is the editor, you should be okay just downloading that alone.

Your Witcher 2 install should auto update to at least 3.3. If you want all the patches manually up to 3.3 you can get them from thewitcher.com site. Patch 3.4 can be downloaded from the redkit site. It is a small download to patch from 3.3 to 3.4.
