At the tolling of the witching hour last night, CD Projekt RED released the 'Enhanced Edition' patch for The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings on PC to herald the launch of its Xbox 360 edition today. All the shiny new things made for consoleers, including hours of new content, have been patched in for PCnauts too.
Along with new quests taking an estimated four hours to complete, new areas, characters, and hours of cutscenes, today's patch brings bags of fixes and improvements. All for free, because CD Projekt RED are a bit lovely. Have a gander at the additions in the trailer below.
The Steam version will update automatically, while you can update it on GOG through the launcher, with a downloader, or by manually downloading 36 parts.
To celebrate the launch, there's a 15%-off sale on TW2 at GOG and Steam, bringing it down to $42.49. GOG's letting everyone who owns The Witcher 2 on PC add the game to their GOG account, so they can download it DRM-free whenever they fancy, no matter where they bought it. GOG's also got 50% off the original Witcher, making it $4.99.
Shacknews voted The Witcher 2 our 2011 Game of the Year on PC, so Xbox 360 players who are just getting into this today are in for a real treat.

Ah, heck, I switched a 2 and a 4 and it slipped through editing. Cheers fry.

Is the 'new content' interleaved with the main campaign such that I would have to start a new play-through to experience it, or is it a separate mini-campaign I can just jump right into? Hopefully the latter since given my backlog I doubt I will play through the entire game a second time in the near future.

It's slipped into the third act.

Anyone who like me had uninstalled the game after finishing it and wants to try it again to replay with new patch. they will let you download the game digitally on GOG you just have to put in your retail cd key:
http://www.gog.com/witcher2/backup/
It also has a crap load of free stuff on that page available digitally, soundtracks / videos / maps / playboy shoots :) -

I said go Bi. Sometimes PC shit is all retarded and too nerdy and up its own ass. You need to flow from PC to 360/ps3 as needed dawg. Also your internet probably sucks a fucking dick. Make sure you are pointed to a local Steam server. It's in the options somewhere. Mine has jumped from Phoenix to LA sometimes when I'm downloading something that everyone else is at the same time, so maybe you should try a Dallas server.

I have a similar Supergirl outfit Edlin sent me a few years ago. It fits poorly.

Check out Amazon's download shit too. A lot of times you can buy a Steam key cheaper there and then plop that into Steam and download it there. I got that Space Marine game from Amazon last week for like $9 and it downloaded in Steam. I'm cheap as shit so I buy tons of shit from Amazon.

the quality of their game and their support is so good that they make me feel bad for only paying $33.71 when i pre-ordered on direct2drive instead of gog.com. i bought witcher 1 once full-price on retail and once for 5 bucks on steam and i still feel like i owe them. now i understand the catholic guilt thing.
DAMN YOU CD PROJECT, DAMN YOU TO HELL.
