If you’ve recently received an invitation claiming you can beta test The Witcher 4, I’ve got some disappointing news. CD Projekt has alerted the community about a scam making the rounds, aiming to lure fans with fake offers to play the game early.
It’s understandable why anyone would be tempted by such a prospect; we’re all itching to dive into another of Ciri’s adventures without the wait. But it’s crucial to exercise caution here—remember the wise words, “Check yourself before you wreck yourself.”
According to a tweet from the game’s official account, “We’ve been getting reports from the community about beta test invitations for The Witcher 4—it’s a scam. We’re addressing these fraudulent messages and working to remove them.” They urge anyone receiving these invitations, or who come across news about them, to report the scam through email or social media tools. Think of yourself as a monster slayer—wise and discerning enough to see through these traps.
Importantly, CD Projekt assures fans that any legitimate beta tests in the future will be announced through their official channels. So, save yourself the trouble and avoid clicking on suspicious links like ‘www.totallylegitwitcher4betatestforrealsiesiswear.com’ from sketchy forum users with names like XxbIgG3RryFR0mdaRivIEra69xX. Trust me, it’s better to steer clear—viruses are real, even with an incognito browser.
Got all that? Excellent. Now, let’s shift our focus to authentic Witcher-related updates instead of getting tangled up in these scams.
