The Witcher 3 team wants to make President Obama an honorary witcher

Not too many developers can say that their game is a symbol of national pride.

But that’s what happened to CD Projekt Red in 2011 when Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk handed U.S. President Barack Obama a copy of the studio’s fantasy role-playing game The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. Earlier this month, the president returned to Poland during a four-day trip through Europe, where he mentioned the game at a press conference in Warsaw. While he hasn’t played it yet, he said it’s “a great example of Poland’s place in the new global economy, and it’s a tribute to the talents and the work ethic of the Polish people as well as the wise stewardship of Polish leaders like Prime Minister Tusk.”
