The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt gets a FREE next-gen update on December 14th!

Hi community!

Will three language options be available? Audio / Subtitles / Interface? Currently, only two are available.
 
Hi! Will the cross-save update be launching on last-gen on the 14th as well? I am hoping to transfer my save from PS4 to Xbox Series S and it would be amazing to know if I can do this on launch, or if I'll have to wait longer.

Thanks! It's looking like an awesome update.
 
Hi people
Been playing The Witcher franchise for years now. Also a big Cyberpunk fan (since launch, yes!). Congrats to CD Projekt Red for putting out fantastic games.

But, this will be my first post here.

I'm just wondering if we'll be getting updated system specs, since my pc is quite outdated. Honestly, i still manage to get a decent enough gameplay experience on 1080p with my i5 4690, my RX580 (8g) and 16 gigs of ram.

I haven't played the Hearts Of Stone and the Blood & Wine DLC's yet, so i was also wondering if these will be included in the free update?

Lemme know! I'm curious!

No, expansions won't be included ;)
2) Base game without expansions will get the next-gen upgrade however expansions need to be purchases separately. I'd recommend getting Game of The Year / Complete Edition to get the full package. Hope this helps!
 
The long-awaited free next-gen update for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is coming out on December 14th, 2022!


The next-gen update is free for everyone who already owns any version of the game. For those who don’t have the game yet, a dedicated next-gen version, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition, featuring all enhancements, free DLCs and story expansions: Hearts of Stone & Blood and Wine, will be available for purchase digitally on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, with a physical release at a later date.

In addition to the next-gen release, the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch versions of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will also receive an update featuring numerous additions and improvements, as well as the Netflix Witcher-themed DLCs. Further details, including the release date, will be announced soon.

Just checking - the quote above says free for everyone who already owns any version of the game - however the advert says only those that have purchased GOTY edition - what's real?

I bought Witcher 3 on first release, then Blood n Wine and Hearst of Stone when they were released - so all bought separately...GOTY edition didn't even exist at this time.....

Just hoping that I don't have to buy this all over again.....

Nope you don't have to buy anything ;)

We understood that the cross-platform will permit to exchange saves between PC, PS5 and XBox series X.
But, for those that change from Sony to Microsoft (or reverse) when going from old-gen to next-gen console, will it be possible to transfer a save done on PS4 to XBox series X or from XBox One to PS5 for example?
 
Will the NPC count be updated on new gen consoles? I know they mentioned a slider for PC's. Downtown Beauclair had minimal to no NPC's near the town square in the outdoor stage area on all console versions.
 
Hey, yes NPC counts went up across the board to bring consoles closer to the Ultra PC settings, while PC also gets a new Ultra+ setting that goes even further (Of course you'll likely only see the difference in Novigrad or Beauclair, since the smaller villages of course only have a set number of inhabitants anyway).

Ridiculous.

I want my villages overflowing with villagers!!! :)

I assume the update will be available on every platforms on which you can buy the game (so Epic store included).

By the way, I just checked on Epic (TW3 on Epic) and there is a "note" ;)

Everything is great BUT...

I'm still very disapointed with armor and clothes. No, it looks fantastic, but maybe it shouldn't be? In the game Geralt can look like a viking, nilfgaardian, now even like samurai... but not like Geralt.

It seems like designers had a competition in coming up with the most lurid, ridiculous and inappropriate stuff for Geralt. And they completely forgot to give the players more stuff in which Geralt could look... like Geralt.
Seriously guys, with the exception of the manticore set, I can't remember anything that looked canonical and authentic. It may even be better for neutral players, but as a fan of the saga, I would like to be able to play for a canon-look witcher.

A few examples of how it should be:
