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!

Its an awesome sounding update, I'm impressed with all that CDP keep doing. Unfortunately as much as I want to have a play with it, I probably can't use it as my 4 year old comp can't even play The Witcher 1 :/ (1-7fps at 1280x800, GFX is an 9400M) Hence I haven't yet bought TW2 as much as I want to.
Awesome news!
Most impressive x

Once this starts getting used well, it'll raise the profile of the company & the game.

Really looking forward to seeing what the community can achieve.
Nice.

Eh cool, so when's the Mac version of REDKit? :P

jk, Good luck to all the modders! May you create wonders.
Someone should re-create the entire original Witcher using these tools
Fucking brilliants is all I have to say. CDPR strikes again to show other devs how to treat their community.
Respect.

I can't seem to find the link to get the REDkit anywhere in my shelf.

I click the Witcher 2 box, but it doesn't appear among the bonus content.

Is it under the game installer instead of the bonus content?

011284mm: 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.
GOG+CDProjekt, you practically made it immortal :)
Thank you.

I don't know if I personally will ever get into it, but I'm glad to know it's there if I wanted to.

It is if I choose English as the installer language. T__T

Just found out. Thanks for pointing it. ;)
Edit: nevermind.

I'm impressed with the promise of practically making whole new games from scratch, if I read well, on top of Witcher 2, even with different main characters, locations and combat moves it seems.

"Do it Geralt do it, I know you want to"

Freaken awesome there at the end of the trailer. Thank you GoG and CD Projekt RED for these tools, you guys really know how to treat your customers and I'm very happy to be one.

Looking forward to Witcher 3 :D

Silverhawk170485: I'm wondering how long it will take until we can play the game with nude Triss ... I think not so long. xD
This just reminded me, some time in the past there were a couple of "hot coffee" mods for Fallout 3, using the hooker from Megaton (and perhaps other characters). I guess it's game on now, surely this kind of thing will appear on Witcher 2 too right? Oh yeah, even unmodded this game already has sex scenes with Triss.
