The Witcher Enhanced Edition Lacks Blood in US, Developer Promises Fix 'ASAP'
by Chris Faylor, Sep 18, 2008 8:14am PDTUpdate: The blood patch is now available.
Original Story: This week's re-release of CD Projekt RED's fantasy PC RPG The Witcher inadvertently removed blood from the US edition of the game, the developer has confirmed.
A fix will be available "ASAP," CD Projekt marketing VP Tom Ohle told Shacknews.
Dubbed The Witcher Enhanced Edition, the re-release packs a new translation, additional quests, improved loading times, an adventure editor, and more.
"Spent a year making the game perfect and someone forgot to include one file that turns blood on," Ohle noted. "There is blood, but it's basically on the lowest setting."
The developer was not sure if this issue will afflict those that update the original US release of The Witcher with tomorrow's free patch, which brings all of the new content to existing owners of the game.

Also, Faylor, on the front page, it appears that the word "exiting" is used instead of "existing".
