"All I can say for now is that it's not likely for any POTENTIAL [sic] console release to be simultaneous [with the PC game]," senior producer Tomasz Gop told Eurogamer this morning.Arcania: Gothic 4, Fallout: New Vegas, Fable III, Dragon Age II, The Witcher 2, Divinity II: Flames of Vengeance, Two Worlds II, and Deus Ex: Human Revolution all within a five-month period? It's a good time to be an RPG fan.
He then apologised for being able to offer only a "no comment" on the console game's current status.
CD Projekt's continued reluctance to show The Witcher 2 on console - or even confirm which platforms it's on - has lead to speculation of its existence. In May this year, CD Projekt had to jump to the defence of the project on Twitter: "CD Projekt always wanted and still plans to develop The Witcher 2 on consoles - nothing has changed," the company promised.
CD Project dumped previous console game The Witcher: White Wolf - an adaptation of The Witcher 1 - due to funding issues.
Luckily, there's a silver lining: The Witcher 2 on PC, which is shaping up to be something special. And it is absolutely still on track for a March 2011 release, Gop reiterated.
