Geralt is found half-dead near Kaer Morhen with no memory of who he is or how he got there. When a gang of mages and bandits raids the keep and steals the witchers' mutagens, he sets off after them, ending up in Vizima, the capital of Temeria, in the middle of a plague and a vicious fight between the Order of the Flaming Rose and the Scoia'tael rebels.
Books connected to this game
- Read afterThe Lady of the Lake
The first game opens a few years after the saga ends, and its starting premise gives away part of how The Lady of the Lake finishes. Read the novels first if you plan to.
- Comes beforeThe Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings
Begins not long after the first game, with the same Temerian court and Geralt's memory still patchy. It assumes you know how the first game ended, so play that one first.
