The fourth and final day of our festivities for The Witcher includes the formulae for all of the game's bombs, oils, and potions, artwork for all seventy-two loading screens and sixty "flashback" images, and dozens of new art renders from the European Collector's Edition artbook. A spoiler warning is probably in order again today, since the "flashback" images are used exclusively to tell the game's story.

While our week-long feature has come to a close, you should be able to check back next week for some more Witcher content. There are a few other features I'm currently working on that just need some more time to finish up. Stay tuned.

Wow! The artwork is pretty amazing, some of these screens actually remind me a bit of Rembrandt with the interplay of light and shadow.

Almost remind me of what World in Conflict did for their loading screen, except that game had Alec Baldwin doing the narration (very convincing, I'd say). Nice artworks, by the way. It's just that I still prefer the artworks in World in Conflict.

Wow...hats off to the art work! Best I've seen in awhile. I wonder how many artists it took 'em
