Synopsis
Includes all new content developed for the XB360 version & all patches
to-date for the most comprehensive & up-to-date PC Witcher 2 retail box.
The player is Geralt of Rivia, a professional monster slayer, a witcher.
Entangled in the political turmoil that engulfed Temeria, Geralt helped quell
the rebellion of the Order of the Flaming Rose. Soon after, he saved King
Foltest’s life when the monarch was attacked by a witcher-like assassin. He
continues to protect the king, serving as his bodyguard as Foltest strives to
bring peace to his kingdom. The Order’s last bastions have yielded to the royal
army, yet one more task remains - the Baroness La Valette announced her
secession from the realm, and her fortress must be taken. A month after the
attempted assassination, Foltest’s armies stand at the gates of La Valette
Castle, preparing for a final assault. Still at Foltest’s side, Geralt is among
them, unable to begin his personal quest to discover the mysterious assassin’s
origin and identity...
