Yes, production has halted, but it's more a case of being put aside than total cancellation. Console gamers will still get a chance to play through the Witcher world in the sequel, though.

It's confirmed. The silver-haired monster hunting amnesiac is back and this time in console form. The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf will be coming out in the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360 sometime in autumn, 2009. This latest project by Atari and CD Projekt RED was unveiled during the ATARI LIVE showcase event in London earlier today (December 2).
