The '˜Dark Mode' is not just a hardcore mode as it also comes with a new item set, this set will cover a variety of armour and weaponry. What is intriguing about this set is that it will damage Geralt in combat if you haven't been able to collect and equip all the Dark items. The armour has a nice black finish, and in combat there is a smoky black outline to the screen. CD Projekt Red will also be rewarding the first person to complete the game in this mode with some special items including a signed copy of the special edition of the game.
Arena mode is the final major addition to come in version 2.0, like the tutorial this takes place outside of the main story in a new location. This new area contains a fighting pit along with a crowd which will pelt you with apples if you back away from a fight, there is also a backstage area where you can buy new items, improve your stats and hire sellswords to help you in your fights. It is important to note that nothing you purchase in the arena can be transferred to your main story based build of Geralt.
Additionally, BeefJack brings word that the Xbox 360 version will require 2 discs:
Speaking at the Eurogamer Expo today, CD Projekt's Jan Krzysztof Bielecki paused for a moment when asked, then explained that they haven't officially announced anything yet. But then he kind of changed that.
(It's going to be more than one,) he said.
He added: (And it cannot be three, so. yeah, it's going to be two discs.)
