You Can Travel By Water To Other Islands In The Witcher 3

The Witcher 3 is starting to sound ridiculous. Not only is it going to take 200 hours to complete, the size of the world, activities and exploration all seem off the chart. CD Projekt Red really are trying to build a world for you to exist in. That's as exciting as it is terrifying.

You're not going to be locked to one land mass either. In an interview with Stratege (Translated by Worlds Factory) the game's Senior Writer Jakub Szamałek revealed that you will be able to go out exploring other islands, by sailing or swimming there.

Yes, in the final version, you can not only use the boat to sail but also swim under water, opening up new areas that are inaccessible by land. We especially cut out the content for this presentation so you can focus all your attention on the combat system, monsters and ordinary people living on the mainland. But in fact, we have designed five large islands and about the same number of smaller ones, which we have not yet demonstrated in public.

So do not be afraid, in our game you will see a lot of interesting places to explore: ancient ruins, abandoned buildings, caves and much more. We created each of these places in a unique way for the players who want to get there. Some of them will be associated with Geralt's story, while others just hide behind a lot of secrets. In general, they all carry some meaning. Our team spent a lot of time to recreate the world of Geralt and make it feel alive.

I really do want to see if this all comes off. At some point the size of the game has to affect the quality. That's is just a man power reality.

However, CD Projekt Red are one of the best fantasy world builder in the industry so perhaps we shouldn't be worried. The team has really taken its time with this game and it seems they really don't want to get this wrong.
