CD Project held their pre-E3 conference yesterday, with a lot of focus on their upcoming The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Specifically, they revealed the box art, the release date and a couple of special edition boxsets, as well as a new trailer.

Assassin's Creed Liberation HD might have been a good idea six months ago. Take a popular, critically successful Vita game and port it to consoles and PC. Why not? There are a lot of people that wanted to see this chunk of the story but weren't willing to by a handheld for it.
