It’s an exciting time to be a fan of The Witcher franchise with some big outings along the way. Not only is CD Projekt RED currently hard at work on the next main installment, The Witcher IV, but Geralt fans have one last chance to say goodbye thanks to the third and final DLC for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, title Songs from the past. In addition to all this, fans of the live-action series can look forward to the final season of the Netflix series. Overall, these are going to be an exciting few years.
However, if you still want to immerse yourself in the world of The Witcher before these big releases, look no further than The Witcher: No Man’s Land.
From Monster Fight Club, which is best known for Cyberpunk: Combat Zone And Borderlands: Monsieur Torgue’s Arena, comes the all-new miniatures game based on the world of The Witcher.
The Witcher: No Man’s Land delivers dynamic, real-time combat with the two-player starter set featuring 32mm miniature warbands as well as two monster miniatures, including the iconic Griffon and Striga that we all remember all too well. However, if you prefer to choose from pre-built warbands, this is also possible, allowing you to create Geralt of Rivia himself.
So what warbands do we know about now? Well, the first will be Geralt’s Warband, whose goal is to help a small town survive an attack by bandits and beasts. As such, he will be joined by a Blacksmith, a Farmer, a Witch and a Surgeon. On the other hand, players can choose the Letho Warband, whose gameplay is focused more on leading a group of professional killers, including the gruff Captain, the Devoted Soldier, the wily Crossbowman, and the bossy Priest. While Geralt has to defend, Letho is much more focused on closing the deal and getting the gold.
Although an official list for The Witcher: No Man’s Land hasn’t been revealed yet, we know what the kit will include. That’s two warbands, two additional monster miniatures, a playmat, scenery, cards, tokens, dice, and the rulebook. However, the creators reportedly intend to add even more familiar faces in the future, including Yennefer, Triss, and Dandelion.
The Witcher: No Man’s Land is a great way to bring fans of The Witcher franchise together and have some fun while we all wait for the sequel to the beloved CD Projekt RED saga. In the meantime, we await more news on the all-new miniatures game.
