Game Informer has revealed its March cover story and it's The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, a standalone sequel that takes the stories and characters into an open world that is 30 times larger than the previous game - a setting even larger than Skyrim.

The magazine says it's made possible with the new REDengine 3 technology that developer CD Projekt RED is debuting with the game.

"Our huge feature dives into everything The Witcher 3 has to offer, and it's a lot: the detective work that precedes deadly combat when monster hunting, storylines that weave and twist together between political intrigue and otherworldly menaces, and a tired hero who wants to set things right but can't put down his swords until his conscience allows – if it ever does, they add.

The game will be available in 2014 for the PC and "all high-end platforms available."
