The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on Xbox One to Use SmartGlass, Kinect

Use items and spells with voice commands.

Posted By | On 10th, Jun. 2013

CD Projekt RED decided to make their presence felt at the Microsoft E3 press conference by announcing that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which will be arriving on next gen consoles including the Xbox One, will make use of several Microsoft-specific features when it releases.

This includes using Kinect for optional voice commands that let you switch items in battle and even cast spells. SmartGlass will also be used but it hasn’t been indicated exactly how. The mystery…it consumes us!

We also got a look at some of the gameplay for the game, which showcased some of the great work that’s been done in regards to the new DirectX 11 renderer. Geralt looks better than ever, and the game itself shouldn’t have much problem being crowned the “prettiest” at this point.

Stay tuned as we bring you more details regarding games, and of course, the ever so important pricing of the console.
