The reign of adorable little pocket monsters taking over your local park is nearly over. Soon, there will be terrifying monsters posted up next to the tetherball court.<\/p>
CD Projekt Red is working on an augmented reality mobile game for its Witcher <\/em>franchise. Titled The Witcher: Monster Slayer<\/em>, it seems to be exactly in the style of Pokemon Go<\/em>, just with more ferocious creatures. Slaying these monsters takes more skill than flicking a ball, though. The Witcher: Monster Slayer <\/em>draws inspiration from The Elder Scrolls: Blades<\/em> for its combat system, requiring slashes and stabs with perfect rhythm and timing.<\/p> As for the canon of Monster Slayer<\/em>, this AR game takes place “long before the time of Geralt of Rivia.” There’s some sort of narrative running through it, as a description reads “experience story-driven quests that propel you through epic adventures inspired by the Witcher<\/em> series.” There’s some purpose here.<\/p>
