CD Projekt Red held a very special E3 2014 gameplay demonstration video of its upcoming The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on the Xbox One console from Microsoft, showing a new monster hunting adventure for protagonist Geralt of Rivia.

The Witcher 3 is one of the most anticipated role-playing titles of next year, and developer CD Projekt Red has already showcased a great video from the game earlier this month, during its own conference for fans.

Now, during Microsoft's E3 2014 press event, the Polish studio returned with a live gameplay demonstration that showcased a fresh portion of the open world RPG.

This time around, protagonist Geralt of Rivia is on the hunt for a griffon, which begins with the super-powered assassin track the beast, wound it, and then go on the hunt, while saving a damsel in distress from a gang of bandits.

The gameplay demonstration ends with a stunning show of Geralt's different combat abilities, as he uses his swords, his sign magic, and his acrobatic moves to take on big and small enemies.

While the finale of the griffon battle wasn't shown, you can expect to see much more of The Witcher 3 soon enough, during E3 2014 and in the following months, ahead of its 2015 release.

Until then, check out the video below.
