As promised (though slightly belated due to a bit of illness), here's our hands-on impressions of CDProjekt RED's The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, as played by yours truly recently out at an exclusive event in London town.

The hands-on demo was largely locked to a single side-mission, with a nice chunk of narrative that we've decided to avoid for those of you who like your previews spoiler-free (we're looking at you, rest of the games industry press). I do, however, go into detail regarding controls, combat, environments and more, for those of you wondering how this plays in the wake of the first game.
