The full presentation will be uploaded and shared with everyone later today, but in the meantime, here's four screenshots straight from the demo to tide us all over. 😍
Screenshot from The Witcher 4 Unreal Engine 5 Tech Demo shows a close-up of Ciri wearing her hood up, looking off in the distance. Her two swords can be seen on her back. The Witcher 4 logo is printed in the bottom left corner alongside text that reads, “Technical Presentation — Not Actual Gameplay.” Screenshot from The Witcher 4 Unreal Engine 5 Tech Demo shows a lush forest, with a fallen tree in the foreground alongside patches of snow. The Witcher 4 logo is printed in the bottom left corner alongside text that reads, “Technical Presentation — Not Actual Gameplay.” Screenshot from The Witcher 4 Unreal Engine 5 Tech Demo shows a hooded Ciri standing on the edge of a cliff, overlooking the forests and mountains of Kovir on a bright day. A grand medieval city can be spotted in the distance. The Witcher 4 logo is printed in the bottom left corner alongside text that reads, “Technical Presentation — Not Actual Gameplay.” Screenshot from The Witcher 4 Unreal Engine 5 Tech Demo shows the busy medieval market of Valdrest with dozens upon dozens of NPCs crowding around a band performing on stage.

- It's homeless and old people who can't afford to eat at a restaurant they've never been to, says Tom Amtoft, who has lived in Nuuk for 28 years.
- All they have to do is to put on a cap and be in the Trump staff's videos. They're being bribed, and it's deeply distasteful. www.dr.dk/nyheder/udla...
Kilder til DR: Trumps folk 'bestak' hjemløse og socialt udsatte med dyr hotelmiddag for at lege Trump-støtter
Flere kilder genkender flere af deltagerne ved Trump-frokosten i Nuuk som hjemløse og socialt udsatte borgere.
