The Witcher hexing PS3, 360?

What we heard: That CD Projekt Red would like to do a console edition of The Witcher isn't what's at question. As recently as last month, the publisher-developer of Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski's dark fantasy game adaptation has teased a console edition of the best-selling PC game was in the works. "There are a lot more places to explore in the world of The Witcher and there's obviously a huge audience out there that would still love to see the game on console...we're PC developers first and foremost, but you never know!"

Never, however, may be just around the corner. Over the prolonged holiday weekend, a GameTrailers user posted what appears to be an official developer diary for The Witcher: Rise of the Wolf, a console adaptation for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
As cinematic footage of the game rolls, an unnamed developer explains the primary differences between The Witcher on consoles and the PC edition. "The console version will look much better. [It] has a new engine with dynamic lighting, dynamic shadow, normal mapping, there's also new vegetation. In the console adaptation, enemy behavior will change a lot, there are new behaviors, new actions that can be performed by the enemies, the enemies will move much more dynamically."
The developer goes on to say that Rise of the Wolf will benefit from a "more dynamic and more engaging" combat system. "There are hundreds of new mocap animations in the console version," continued the developer. "We also wanted movement of the character, the main hero, and the enemies to be more realistic and fluid, so we are mo-capping a lot of new movements and animations." The developer also notes that Rise of the Wolf will fully support achievements, trophies, and Sixaxis motion-controls.
The official story: "We haven't made any official announcements about any of the three games in development at RED," a CD Projekt Red rep told GameSpot.
Bogus or not bogus?: Not bogus. This video has all the dressings of a publisher-produced promotional spot, so expect to hear more about The Witcher: Rise of the Wolf when CD Projekt Red is good and ready to announce it.
