The wait continues! While fans of the fantasy world created by author Andrzej Sapkowski eagerly await news regarding the release date for Season 2 of Netflix's hit series 'The Witcher', we can at least offer some solace with a new update concerning its upcoming sequel.

According to recent statements made public yesterday, CD Projekt Red has officially confirmed that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Complete Edition will be hitting stores and digital platforms on October 15th. This announcement comes as welcome news for long-time fans of the beloved role-playing game (RPG) series who have been patiently waiting since its initial release back in May 2015.

The Witcher franchise has seen significant success worldwide thanks to both its engaging storylines and action-packed gameplay, making it no surprise that Netflix decided to bring this popular IP into television form. With Henry Cavill cast as Geralt of Rivia – a renowned monster hunter with supernatural abilities - expectations were high going into production on Season 1.

Although there has been no official word yet from either the producers or streaming giant regarding when viewers can expect more adventures from our favorite witcher, fans will have plenty to keep themselves occupied until then. In the meantime, here are some interesting facts about The Witcher series that might tide you over:

- Did you know that actor Henry Cavill (Geralt of Rivia) is actually quite knowledgeable about horses? Before landing his role as Gerult in Season 1 he spent years competing professionally at equestrian events!

- The iconic White Wolf himself isn't alone when it comes to having connections within the world of fantasy literature. Author J.R.R Tolkien, creator of Middle Earth and its famous hobbit Bilbo Baggins was actually a huge fan of Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski's works which served as inspiration for both 'The Lord Of The Rings' trilogy AND 'The Hobbit' novel!

- Speaking of inspirations - did you know that lead actor Henry Cavill himself drew much inspiration from classic fantasy literature when preparing to play Geralt? He cites authors such as CS Lewis (author of the Chronicles Of Narnia series) and Robert E. Howard (creater of sword & sorcery hero Conan The Barbarian)

With all this information out there, fans can only hope that Netflix will soon follow suit by providing an official release date for Season 2 so they don't have too long more to wait before diving back into the world created by Andrzej Sapkowski once again!
