What it is

This is an eleven-minute German-language video from GameStar, a games journalism channel, covering a visit to developer CD Projekt to preview a Witcher 3 remaster and the Songs of the Past add-on. It is press-preview coverage of a major open-world role-playing game.

What they actually see

Presenters talk to camera and to developers, intercut with gameplay footage of the Witcher's medieval fantasy world, combat with monsters and upgraded visual comparisons. The channel marks the video as not made for kids, and it opens with a sponsored plug for a game retailer.

Why kids love it

It offers an early, insider look at a game a lot of teens are curious about, delivered by journalists who actually got into the studio.

Worth knowing

The Witcher 3 itself is rated PEGI 18 and ESRB Mature for graphic violence, sexual content and strong language, so preview footage may include scenes from a game well above your child's age rating.

One way in

Are you watching this because you want to play The Witcher one day, or is the behind-the-scenes studio stuff the interesting part?
