Flaunt Your Dueling Skills in The
Witcher: Versus

Addictive Head-to-Head Battles
and Character Development Highlight Web-Based Game from CD Projekt RED and
one2tribe

Pick up your sword and slash your
so-called friends into submission in The Witcher: Versus, the web-based dueling
game formerly known as The Witcher: DuelMail. In The Witcher: Versus, players
can finally fulfill their dreams of challenging a friend or complete stranger to
a duel without having to put their real-world lives on the line. The game is
free to play at
http://versus.thewitcher.com. 

The Witcher: Versus should be
considered a serious hazard to productivity for anyone with computer access at
work, due to its “just one more fight and then I’ll quit for today” nature. As a
sorcerer, witcher or frightener, players challenge others to head-to-head
battles with magic, swords, claws and more at their disposal. Winning a duel
earns the player experience and money, which they can then use to upgrade their
character’s attributes, learn new skills and buy new weapons in hopes of
reaching the upper echelon of the game’s online leader board. The Witcher:
Versus will be continually supported in the coming months with special events,
competitions and more.

More than 48,000 people played the
beta version of The Witcher: DuelMail, and the name was changed in celebration…
or something. Just accept it – the name changed, and now The Witcher: Versus has
launched with a number of improvements that have been implemented thanks to fan
feedback during the beta. The game’s motion-captured animations have been
overhauled, background visuals have been enhanced, balance between character
classes has been improved, and new visual effects make spells and attacks even
more impressive.

So what are you waiting for? Head to
versus.thewitcher.com and start fighting everyone… and don’t worry about getting
arrested
