16 free DLC packs coming for Witcher 3 – Free of charge!

Those rather amazing – not to mention generous – people at CD Projekt Red have just announced their DLC plan for The Witcher 3, regardless of which edition of the game you buy, you’ll get 16 items of DLC.

Starting with the Temerian Armour set (with horse armour natch) and Beard and Hairstyle set on February the 25th (2015) CD Projekt RED will release 2 pieces of DLC each week for absolutely free.

 

We love games. We love collecting them, playing them, and everything connected to that experience. Every time we reach out for a new release, we expect to be taken care of. We expect support if we encounter any problems, we love updates constantly improving the experience, and we feel really special when we receive free content that gives us more than we initially paid for. It doesn’t have to be huge, it can be an awesome skin for a character, or an extra sword, or armor.

 

Unfortunately this treatment is quite rare these days. As gamers, we nowadays have to hold on tight to our wallets, as surprisingly right after release, lots of tiny pieces of tempting content materialize with a steep price tag attached. Haven’t we just paid a lot of cash for a brand new game?
As CD PROJEKT RED, we strongly believe this is not the way it should work and, with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, we have decided to do it differently. Cutting to the chase, everyone who buys Wild Hunt will receive 16 specially prepared DLCs absolutely for free, regardless of platform. You don’t have to pre-order, you don’t have to buy any special edition to get them — if you own a copy of Wild Hunt, they’re yours. This is our way of saying thank you for buying our game.

That’s a pretty sweet deal in my opinion, what say you?
