Following up on word yesterday, CD Projekt has yet to offer its promised statement on the console version of The Witcher, but the company did confirm that the game’s development has been suspended due to financial issues.

"The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf has been suspended pending the resolution of financial issues between the different project partners," said Widescreen director Olivier Masclef. This is the studio who was co-developing the game with CD Projekt.

Apparently CD Projekt missed “a big payment that we were supposed to receive.” Masclef adds that they have not been financially covered for three months.

"I will try to find any solution for the fans. The Witcher on console is an extremely promising title that’s awaited by a lot of people," he added. "We have it running here, and I can tell you that if it hits the shelves one day it’s going to be great."

Meanwhile, CD Projekt claims that “all payments were done on time according to milestone plan,” adding that Widescreen caused delays leading to late payments.
