The Witcher 2 - Assassins of Kings
Launch trailer:


Some info:
Its sequel (obviously) to The Witcher, released back in 2007 by CDProjekt RED, a polish company.
I guess that not too many people know but the events in The Witcher are inspired by the books wrote by Andrzej Sapkowski. The game tells the story of Geralt of Rivia, a Witcher (or Hexer), which is basically a mutaded human that is a professional monster hunter. I won't spoil the first game too much, so I'll let the wiki help us

Through the player's actions, he will redefine those relationships and choose his path in the political intrigue that surrounds him.
