15 Games That Misled Gamers With Fake Screenshots

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – CD Projekt RED

When CD Projekt RED first showcased The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, we were stunned by the incredible detail of its particle effects, grass textures, Geralt’s armour, what have you. Of course, when the game was closer to release, the latest batch of screenshots looked noticeably less detailed. Though a different render scale or some such reason was used to justify the change, it become obvious that The Witcher 3 at launch looked noticeably less impressive than earlier screenshots and footage. Thankfully, it’s still a great-looking game overall.
