CD Projekt has revealed that Thronebreaker, its long-in-development single-player campaign for The Witcher-themed free-to-play collectible card game Gwent, has evolved into a 30-hour RPG and will now be sold as a standalone title.
Thronebreaker - which was originally due to focus on Mever, a war-veteran queen who embarks "on a dark journey of destruction and revenge" - was initially expected to launch at the end of 2017. However, last November, CD Projekt announced a delay into 2018, citing the story campaign's increased scope for the extended development time. A brief update in April suggested that Thronebreaker was still at least six months away from release.
Four months later, and CD Projekt has finally - as part of its sexily titled H1 2018 financial results conference - offered more news about Gwent's single-player campaign, and big changes are afoot. Most notably, Thronebreaker - which is now titled Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales - has seemingly blossomed into a full-scale RPG, with a campaign of around 30 hours, full of choices and consequences, albeit one where actions are still decided by the outcome of Gwent games.
