This week’s big release is The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and as you can tell from the amount of content we’ve been publishing this past week, we’re a little obsessed with it right now. One thing most were surprised with was its inclusion of an actual manual, especially considering most modern-day games direct players through their tutorial in lieu of including a physical manual. Unfortunately, some are taking advantage this by scanning the manual and selling it online as a booklet.
The Witcher 3’s game manual is currently available for sale on the Google Play Store. Its publisher is “Markelov”, although we know if this was a legitimate digital copy of The Witcher 3’s manual, it would be published by CD Projekt RED. The digital booklet has been marked down from $10 to $8, is 9-pages long, and its description is as cookie cutter as it gets as it just describes the game itself and not the product.
The Witcher 3 is one of this year’s highly-anticipated games, and to see something like this happen is disappointing. Hopefully Google will catch wind of this listing and will take it down since anyone who purchases a copy of The Witcher 3 automatically get a free manual with their purchase.
