The Witcher 3 Dev Team Reveals Cancelled “Focus Mode”
The Witcher game franchise based upon the fantasy novel series written by Andrzej Sapkowski recently reached the age of 11 years old. In celebration, the developer CD Projekt RED has been showing off some concepts and scrapped ideas that never made it into the game. The latest of these cancelled features is a “Focus Mode” that could give fans a look inside monsters and enemies.
CD Projekt RED revealed on the game’s official social media account that this “Focus Mode” feature would have allowed players to see and target the insides of any monster, allowing Geralt to deal damage to areas with great precision. Unfortunately, the X-Ray like ability never made it into the game and the developer didn’t reveal the reasons as to why.
