The Witcher 2's REDKit mod tools now officially released
After last week's false start , CD Projekt RED have now officially released The Witcher 2's mod tool, REDKit . It's a powerful looking suite, giving you the opportunity to design quests, build lands, create NPCs, customise combat and "plant realistic forests in just a few clicks."

Here's REDKit's official trailer, for those who love both game editing tools and HEAVY ROCK:

I can only assume this upcoming Witcher children's book takes it easy on the folk horror, fantasy racism, and brutal violence I associate with the series
