The Witcher and The Witcher 2 will be released on new platforms

CD Projekt Red has confirmed its commitment to expanding Andrzej Sapkowski's universe. Three games are currently in development, but the company has not forgotten its classic projects either.

The studio has confirmed good news for owners of newer Apple devices. Soon, The Witcher: Enhanced Edition and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings will be available on Apple devices.

“We are pleased to announce that The Witcher: Enhanced Edition and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings will soon support Apple devices powered by M1, M2 chips and macOS Ventura.

However, we will no longer support OS X 10.7.5, OS X 10.8.2, or macOS 10.15, and we are updating the minimum macOS requirements to macOS 11.0. The reason is that the technologies we use—JIT-compatible memory management and Apple's game controller framework—require at least macOS version 11.0. These updates are necessary to ensure support for Apple silicon chips.”

The developers announced this 30 days prior to the update's release.

“To play on macOS versions below 11.0, keep the older version of the game. To do this, disable automatic updates in Steam and GOG. In the App Store, you do not need to do anything. On all platforms, if you uninstall the game, only the latest version will be available for installation. However, on GOG, you have the option to roll back to an earlier version.”
