5New Content

Believe it or not, there is still brand new content being developed for this seven-year-old-title. Specifically, this new content consists of a brand new quest and suit of armour, inspired by the popular Netflix adaption. Whilst it may be tinged with a hint of sadness, given that Henry Cavill announced his departure from that show earlier in the year, this is still a pretty neat inclusion and will likely be a major reason for folks to pick up this new version of the game.

4Upgraded Visuals

As if the world ofThe Witcher 3 Wild Huntwas not stunning enough to look at already, a new visual overhaul has been implemented in this new version of the game, providing even more graphical fidelity. Not only that, but the newly implemented photo mode allows players to really appreciate the breath-taking visuals in a way which was not possible until now.

3Refined Gameplay

Thankfully, CD Projekt Red have not only bolstered the visuals ofThe Witcher 3 Wild Hunt,they have also tightened up its gameplay mechanics. This includes a new third-person camera, which is much closer to Geralt than the previous camera angle was. There has also been an update to the controls for quick sign-casting. Players can now hold R2 and use the face buttons to switch signs or spells, replacing the old radial menu and ensuring that combat is never slowed down.

2Implementation of Mods

One of the greatest things aboutThe Witcher 3 Wild Huntis its modding community. It is a stroke of genius then that a selection of the best mods have been officiated by CDPR and have been included in the next-gen upgrade. These mods include The Nitpickers mod by chuckcash and The Witcher 3 HD Reworked Project by HalkHogan.
