The Witcher: Path of Destiny is a brand new board game from Go On Board, creators of The Witcher: Old World and other games. Tailored for 1-5 players, the title will see participants take control of some of the greatest heroes from The Witcher series of games — including Geralt, Ciri, Yennefer, Vesemir, and Dandelion — and relive iconic stories from all around the Continent, with a twist! As players engage in board- and card-based gameplay, they may choose to make different choices and diverge from the original path to explore various “what-ifs”. Combining immersive storytelling in a rich and dark fantasy world with easy-to-learn yet deep mechanics that integrate tableau-building, hand management, and strategic thinking, Path of Destiny will offer a wholly new experience within the The Witcher franchise.

“With The Witcher: Old World, the Go On Board team proved that they not only know what makes The Witcher world tick, but also how to adapt the setting perfectly into a unique and engaging board game experience that wholeheartedly embraces its source material,” said Jan Rosner, VP of Business Development, CD PROJEKT RED. “Our next joint project, Path of Destiny, will be just as unique, if not more so, by letting players interact with the world of The Witcher like never before, with choices having consequences that can lead well known stories toward thrilling new conclusions. Exploring these possibilities is a lot of fun, regardless of board game experience or knowledge of The Witcher universe. I can’t wait for you to check it out — do let us know what you think!”

Participation in the project’s Gamefound campaign is open to anyone wishing to contribute. The Go On Board team has prepared a variety of options for pledging support, as well as numerous stretch goals — when unlocked, they will influence the game’s content. Several pledge options also entail receiving the game prior to its retail release in either a standard or deluxe variant, with the latter including all content featured in the standard edition, as well as everything unlocked during the crowdfunding campaign and exclusive deluxe edition goodies.

Go On Board and CD PROJEKT RED’s prior collaboration has seen The Witcher: Old World funded in record time, raising a total of €8.5M and becoming one of the most successful crowdfunding campaigns for a board game ever. Following the campaign, the game was released in retail worldwide in 17 language versions, selling 150K copies of the base game and nearly double that including the game’s expansions.

Independent developer Free Range Games and publisher North Beach Games are happy to announce that their highly-anticipated co-op survival crafting title, The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria, has finished the final stages of development and has officially gone ‘Mithril’ (Gold) for PC ahead of its Oct. 24 launch via the Epic Games Store. The digital PlayStation®5  version of the game has been delayed and will now launch on Dec. 5. 2023 alongside a physical release at retail, with the Xbox Series X|S version planned for early 2024. 

Recently, the developers shared a first look at the in-game Dwarf Creator, which allows players to create and customize their own unique Dwarven character for their playthrough in The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria. The Dwarf Creator gives players numerous options to customize their Dwarf however they see fit, including distinct choices for beards and hair, accessories and jewellery, facial features, tattoos, scars, body type, and even the Dwarf’s origin, voice, and personality type. 

Watch the Dwarf Creator Video on YouTube

The story of The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria takes players beyond the books and into the Fourth Age of Middle-earth, the fantastical world created by J.R.R. Tolkien. Summoned to the Misty Mountains by Lord Gimli Lockbearer (voiced in-game by actor John Rhys-Davies), players band together as a company of Dwarves tasked to reclaim the lost spoils from the Dwarven homeland of Moria—known as Khazad-dûm or Dwarrowdelf—in the depths below their very feet. Their quest will require fortitude and teamwork, delving deep into the Mines of Moria to recover its treasures and in the hopes of one day restoring them to their former glory.

In The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria players will create their own custom Dwarf before venturing into the cavernous mines of Moria alone or together with a company of fellow Dwarves online. Each adventure into the depths will bring unique challenges and opportunities through the use of procedurally generated environments, creating nearly endless possibilities as players seek the deepest delves of the Dwarves. As they venture ever deeper, the Dwarves will need to ensure their metal is ready to meet the dangers that lie within, crafting resilient armours and finely honed weapons capable of protecting against and defeating all manner of goblin, arachnoid, or more mysterious foes they may encounter. Excavate the mysteries of the Misty Mountains, extract precious metals prized by Dwarves, rebuild and refire forges that have long since gone cold, and learn the secret of the Shadow that lurks within.

Developed by Free Range Games and Published by North Beach Games, The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria will launch on Oct. 24 for Windows PC via the Epic Game Store with an MSRP of $39.99 USD / €35.99 EUR, and T for Teen ESRB and PEGI 16 ratings. The title will release on the PlayStation®5 both digitally and at retail on Dec. 5 2023, with the Xbox Series X|S version planned to launch in early 2024. Eager fans can pre-order the game digitally on PC via the Epic Games Store and wishlist on PlayStation®5 via the PlayStation® Store.

The company launches its biggest charity initiative across 6 games

October 18th, 2023 – Here at Wargaming, we love war games, but we loathe real war. And this subject has been especially sensitive for us, as we have a whole studio back in Kyiv that works hard on World of Tanks and other products despite all the horrors their country is living through every day.

Over the past year and a half, Wargaming has been contributing to donations to help the Ukrainian civilians, including 1 million dollars donated to medical assistance and equipment during the first week of war and 100,000 dollars donated to the victims of the Kakhovka disaster and several other efforts. Hundreds of our employees have been making donations through their own initiative, launching an internal fundraising campaign and gathering 200,000 euros to purchase ambulance cars for Ukrainian medics.

We believe in the power of unity and are determined to continue our efforts. Now, we are inviting all our players to join us in support of those who have been affected by the war and launching our biggest charity project — WargamingUnited.

Starting today, we are welcoming community across six of our games — World of Tanks, World of Tanks Blitz, World of Tanks Modern Armor, World of Warships, World of Warships: Legends, and World of Warplanes — to unite around this global initiative. Each game will be featuring special Ukraine-themed bundles with customization elements crafted by the artists at Wargaming Kyiv studio. With these time-limited offers, players can not only assist those in need but also receive valuable in-game content while showing their support.

We will donate 100% from every purchased “WargamingUnited” bundle* via UNITED24, the official fundraising platform of Ukraine, for buying C-type ambulances that will take on the duty to save lives. C-type ambulances are highly specialized vehicles, equipped with the essential defibrillators, cardiac monitors, oxygen tanks, and artificial lung ventilator devices needed to keep the injured alive until they can reach an operating room. Each ambulance funded will help save hundreds of lives.

The bundles will be available from October 18^th until November 1^st.

About UNITED24

UNITED24 is the official fundraising platform of Ukraine. Its goal is to unite the world around supporting Ukraine: To protect, save, and rebuild.

No one was ready for a full-scale war in the heart of Europe. Charitable foundations, no matter how well-organized, cannot meet the needs of a country as large as Ukraine.

The platform allows one-click donations to Ukraine from anywhere. Ukraine itself knows best what is needed and can deliver aid directly.

UNITED24 is designed for collaboration with charities, partners, donors, and public figures worldwide. Their goal is to establish an efficient work process that brings Ukraine’s victory closer.

Wargaming has been uniting efforts with UNITED24, including the 100,000-dollar donation to the victims of the Kakhovka disaster and 250,000 dollars donated on the day of the company’s 25th Anniversary.
