On July 9th and 10th, CD PROJEKT RED and Netflix presented WitcherCon — a global online celebration of The Witcher franchise featuring numerous panels and announcements related to the world of The Witcher video games and the Netflix series.
Streaming to Twitch and YouTube, WitcherCon was aired over two separate streams containing many fun and eventful panels focused around different aspects of the world of The Witcher — as well as content unique to each stream. Some of the highlights from the event include: Geralt of T-Rivia — where key creators from The Witcher series of games and The Witcher Netflix series competed to test their knowledge in a Witcher-universe themed quiz. Then, in Memories From the Path, developers from CD PROJEKT RED discussed how the digital stories of the games have been brought to life over the years, before revisiting old memories together and reminiscing about the creation of the games.
Watch the recordings of the two WitcherCon streams:
WitcherCon – 1st Stream
WitcherCon – 2nd Stream
CD PROJEKT RED also put the spotlight on their expanded Witcher universe in The Witcher: Beyond Video Games — at the heart of which was the reveal of the upcoming comic book The Witcher: Ronin. The comic is stylized in the manga form, and tells an ancient-Japanese-inspired tale which casts Geralt as a monster-slaying Ronin on the hunt of the mythical Yuki Onna — the Lady of Snow. A special hardback collector’s edition of The Witcher: Ronin will be coming soon to Kickstarter.
Learn more about The Witcher: Ronin
Spokko, member of the CD PROJEKT family, was also at WitcherCon to present new footage from their location-based AR RPG The Witcher: Monster Slayer. Coming to iOS and Android for free on July 21st, the game tasks players with becoming a witcher themselves, stepping out into familiar surroundings transformed into a dark fantasy realm to hunt down bloodthirsty beasts lurking nearby.
What’s more, in addition to hosting panels featuring the cast of The Witcher Netflix series at WitcherCon, Netflix also provided sneak peeks and updates regarding the second season of its hugely popular series, and The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf anime. As well as fresh looks at both, the release dates for these projects were also revealed during the event, with Season 2 coming on December 17th, and the anime arriving August 23rd.
WitcherCon is also not the only example of CD PROJEKT RED and Netflix’s collaboration. Later in 2021, the next-gen edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will be coming to Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC, and the game will also include bonus items inspired by the Netflix series. The next-gen upgrade for the game will be free for owners of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.

Magic collaborates with iconic tabletop roleplaying game Dungeons & Dragons for the first time
Friday 9 July, 2021 —Wizards of the Coast today released Adventures In The Forgotten Realms, the latest set from the world’s oldest and best trading card game Magic: The Gathering (MTG) on MTG Arena and in-stores on 23 July. The first ever cross-branded set between MTG and the iconic tabletop role-playing game, Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), merges classic D&D monsters, spells and mechanics with MTG gameplay to create a brand new set that fans of both games will love.
Inspired by D&D’s deep lore, Adventures In The Forgotten Realms brings players to the region of Faerûn, filled with new lands to explore, treasure to collect and dungeons to conquer. Characters from the new set are inspired by well-known D&D characters and icons including the gnome bard Ellywick, the crime boss Beholder Xanathar, the Elder Dragon Tiamat, and many others.
With over 260 cards in the set, Adventures In The Forgotten Realms is the first set to utilise flavour words to illustrate the stories told by the creatures and spells of the world. New card prompts ensure all player choices have a unique flavour of their own, whether players choose which attack a creature uses or which action to make when playing an instant. In true D&D style, certain cards will also instruct players to roll a 20-sided die to determine the result of creature abilities and spells. The new element of unpredictability brought to MTG mechanics will encourage players to think outside the box and use random outcomes to their advantage.
Lastly, Adventures In The Forgotten Realmsintroduces the new Dungeon card type. When a spell or ability allows players to “venture into the dungeon”, they will embark on their own adventure and traverse through a dungeon of the player’s choice, activating room abilities to receive rewards and bonuses.
Thematically recognisable art styles can be found in Adventures In The Forgotten Realmsboosters for certain lands and creatures. Limited land cards have alternate art styles reminiscent of classic D&D adventure modules such as the “Cave of the Frost Dragon” card. A selection of iconic creatures also have alternate art styles depicting their entries in the older versions of the D&D Monster Manual such as in the card “Baleful Beholder”.
Adventures In The Forgotten Realmsis available in Set Boosters, Draft Boosters and Collector Boosters, with each pack containing its own unique selection of rare or mythic rare cards, tokens and art cards. Commander decks featuring cards from the new set will also be available from 23 July.
