How it plays
Wild Hunt is a large expansion for The Witcher: Old World that adds something the base game doesn't have: a cooperative mode. Instead of competing, your witchers team up against the riders of the Wild Hunt, warriors from another dimension. It also works as a full solo experience.
It changes how turns work, too. Players move around the board at the same time, so planning together matters. Meeting another witcher doesn't start a fight; you can train together or swap gold, potions and information about monsters nearby. At the end of each round the Wild Hunt summons new monsters or Hounds and attacks.
The finale is a team duel against Eredin, one of the mightiest Wild Hunt warriors, who comes with his own set of powerful attacks.
