The Witcher 3 Announced, First Artwork Revealed

It’s yet to go live on the magazine’s website, the latest issue of Game Informer is now available for download for digital subscribers. And the game on the cover is the previously unannounced The Witcher 3.

The image is legitimate; Zinio’s subscription page confirms The Witcher 3 is this month’s cover feature.

Bigger version of the image below. So you can see that beard.

Some preliminary info supposedly contained in the article:

World supposedly 20% bigger than Skyrim’s
30-40 minutes to cross world on Horseback
New streaming technology (CDRED Engine 3)
Geralt’s Memory is restored
No chapters/acts
Dude is fucking DONE fighting for everyone else
Everything from solving MYSTERIES to slaying monsters
Coming out on “all top-of-the-line” consoles – I’d say that confirms next-gen is in.

The world would be a better place if that’s what actual press releases looked like.
